Private Health Services Plan { PHSP }

Private Health Services Plans are being used by over 54,000 small business owners across Canada. 

The Private Health Spending Plan { PHSP } was introduced as a cost effective means of providing health and dental benefits to employees without having to make a monthly premium commitment. You need to sign a contract with a third party provider to be able to provide the benefits tax free to your employees, and claim the expense on your corporate tax return.

No. This is a common misconception. Medical and Health care expenses are never tax-deductible on personal taxes, but instead are eligible for a tax credit only. If your medical claims are less than 3% of your taxable income in a year, you get no credit whatsoever. Now you can choose any 12 month period ending in the tax year in an effort to find a window that reaches the 3%, but by doing so you will cut out other months that do have legitimate expenses that can now not be claimed.

Assuming you make the 3% hurdle, what you will now receive is a tax credit, not a tax deduction. Tax credits are paid out at the lowest tax bracket level regardless of your income and how much tax you were required to pay on that money when you earned it.

Are considered qualifying medical expenses and can be claimed by the employee on his or her income tax and benefit return. Include the amount that the employee paid on a T4 slip in the "Other information" area under code 85. The use of code 85 is optional. If you do not enter code 85, the CRA may ask the employee to provide supporting documents.

The Employment / Dependents have a maximum medical expense account to use for prequalified health services based on the level of coverage you choose.
