QSEHRA: Why your proof of coverage was marked as noncompliant and how to fix it

This article is for employees enrolled in a QSEHRA through Take Command Health’s HRA Hub platform who submitted proof of insurance and received a “noncompliant” or “declined” status.

Written by Support

Your QSEHRA proof of coverage is marked noncompliant when your submitted document does not clearly show valid Minimum Essential Coverage (MEC), required personal details, or current coverage dates within the required timeframe.

Why your proof of coverage is marked noncompliant

1. Your plan does not meet Minimum Essential Coverage (MEC)

Your submission will be marked noncompliant if your plan is not considered MEC.

This includes:

  • Short-term health insurance plans

  • Indemnity or fixed-benefit plans

  • Critical illness-only coverage

  • Discount-only or non-insurance health plans

  • Vision or dental-only plans

These plans do not qualify for QSEHRA reimbursement.


2. Your document does not clearly show required information

Your proof of coverage may be rejected if it is missing:

  • Your name (policyholder or covered dependent)

  • Plan name or insurance carrier

  • Current coverage status

  • Premium amount (if requesting reimbursement)

If any of these are missing, the document cannot be verified.


3. Your document is outdated

Your submission may be marked noncompliant if:

  • The document is older than 30 days

  • The coverage dates are not current

  • The document does not show active enrollment for the current plan year

Only current and active coverage documents are accepted.


4. You uploaded the wrong type of document

Your proof will be rejected if you upload:

  • Dental-only insurance documentation

  • Vision-only insurance documentation

  • Wellness discount memberships

  • Non-insurance benefit programs

QSEHRA requires proof of health insurance coverage, not supplemental benefits.


5. Your plan type cannot be verified

Even if your insurance is valid, it may be rejected if:

  • The carrier name is unclear

  • The document does not identify plan type

  • The compliance team cannot confirm MEC status

What you need to submit instead

Acceptable proof of coverage includes:

You must provide a document that clearly shows:

  • Your name

  • Insurance carrier and plan name

  • Active coverage status

  • Current date (within 30 days)

  • Premium amount (if reimbursing premiums)


Common accepted documents:

  • Monthly insurance bill or statement

  • Insurance carrier online portal screenshot

  • Enrollment confirmation letter

  • Employer or spouse benefits summary (if applicable)

  • COBRA statement (if applicable)

  • Medicare or Medicaid eligibility letter (if applicable)

How to fix a noncompliant submission

Step 1: Review the rejection reason

  1. Log in to your HRA Hub account

  2. Open your Proof of Coverage submission

  3. Read the compliance note attached to your upload


Step 2: Gather correct documentation

  1. Locate a current insurance statement or portal screenshot

  2. Confirm it includes all required details:

    • Name

    • Plan name

    • Active coverage date

    • Carrier information


Step 3: Resubmit your proof of coverage

  1. Go to the Health Insurance section in HRA Hub

  2. Select “Edit” or “Resubmit”

  3. Upload the corrected documentation

  4. Submit for review again


Step 4: Wait for compliance review

  1. The compliance team will re-evaluate your submission

  2. You will receive an updated approval or rejection status

  3. Approved coverage will unlock reimbursement eligibility
