Mid-market businesses with 50-200 employees are not optimizing FICA tax savings through Section 125 wellness overlays because standard payroll platforms don't automatically implement or advise on these structures.
Standard automated payroll platforms leave Section 125 matching FICA reductions unoptimized; they do not actively implement or advise on cafeteria overlays, requiring third-party administrators or manual intervention.
