The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires health insurance issuers and self-insured plan sponsors to pay Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute fees (PCORI fees). The fees are reported and paid annually using IRS Form 720, the Quarterly Federal Excise Tax Return.
Form 720 and full payment of the PCORI fees are due by July 31 of each year,and generally covers plan years that end during the preceding calendar year. For plan years ending in 2023, the PCORI fees are due by July 31, 2024.
