Also of note, SDSDBF pays the PCORI Fee and Transitional Reinsurance Fee in aggregate for the health fund so individual districts do not need to remit payment or do the reporting.

 

SDSDBF can remit payment based on global aggregate enrollment on behalf of school districts, which have to file IRS Form 720 for the PCORI Fee and register with the CMS and pay.gov to report and make payments for Transitional Reinsurance Fee (TRF), for convenience.

 

With it being a lengthy procedure, SDSDBF will handle the process for you.
