QSEHRA: How to complete employee onboarding

This article is for employees participating in a QSEHRA through Take Command.

Written by Support

To receive reimbursements through your QSEHRA, you must complete onboarding in your Take Command member portal, verify your health insurance coverage, and set up your reimbursement preferences.

Step 1: Log in to your member portal

Use the link provided in your Take Command welcome email to access your account.

Your username is your email address. If needed, you can reset your password from the login page.

After logging in, the onboarding checklist will guide you through the required steps.

Step 2: Review your QSEHRA benefit

During onboarding, you'll see:

  • Your available allowance

  • Your eligibility date

  • Information about your QSEHRA benefit

Review your allowance information before proceeding.

Step 3: Review plan documents

Download and review your QSEHRA plan documents.

These documents explain:

  • Eligible expenses

  • Reimbursement rules

  • Plan requirements

  • Important deadlines

You will be asked to acknowledge receipt of the documents before continuing.

Step 4: Complete your personal and family information

Enter your personal information and add any eligible family members covered under your health insurance plan.

This information helps determine your reimbursement eligibility and allowance calculations.

Step 5: Obtain qualifying health insurance coverage

To receive tax-free QSEHRA reimbursements, you must maintain Minimum Essential Coverage (MEC).

If you need health insurance, you can shop for individual coverage through Take Command or enroll through another qualifying source.

Step 6: Upload proof of coverage

Before reimbursements can begin, Take Command must verify your health insurance coverage.

Proof of coverage must demonstrate:

  • Your name

  • Active health insurance coverage

  • Insurance carrier information

  • Coverage effective date

Examples of acceptable documents may include:

  • Insurance premium bills

  • Insurance ID cards

  • Coverage confirmation letters

  • Insurance carrier portal screenshots

  • COBRA election documentation

Coverage must meet Minimum Essential Coverage (MEC) requirements.

Step 7: Set up recurring premium reimbursements

If your plan allows premium reimbursement, you can submit your monthly premium as a recurring expense.

This allows future premium reimbursement requests to be created automatically without submitting a new claim each month.

Additional documentation may be required when your coverage renews or changes.

When will reimbursements begin?

Reimbursements can begin after:

  1. Onboarding is complete.

  2. Proof of coverage has been reviewed and approved.

  3. Any additional required documentation has been provided.

Key takeaway

To complete QSEHRA onboarding, log in to your member portal, review your plan information, provide proof of qualifying health insurance coverage, and set up reimbursement preferences. Approved proof of coverage is required before reimbursements can begin.
