How do I map Health Care Costs to Box 12DD on W2 forms?

If you are an employer that provides what the IRS defines as Applicable Employer-Sponsored Coverage under a group health plan, then you are required to report the cost of coverage on Form W-2. We recommend consulting with a compliance expert to determine if your company meets this requirement. 

If you determine that you need to report on the 
Cost of Health Care on your W-2 (Box 12DD), follow the steps below in Namely Payroll:

  1. On the Namely homepage, click Manage Payroll.

  2. Go to Company > Deductions.

  3. Click Edit next to the deductions you need to map

  4. Check Yes in the  Is this deduction for an employer-sponsored health coverage? field

  5. Click Save.
