Healthcare Provider Update: Healthcare Provider for Enovis Enovis Corporation focuses primarily on innovative medical technologies and doesn't act as a traditional healthcare provider. Instead, their products are frequently utilized by healthcare providers, including hospitals and outpatient clinics, to enhance patient outcomes in areas such as orthopedic rehabilitation and musculoskeletal health. Potential Healthcare Cost Increases in 2026 As 2026 approaches, significant hikes in healthcare costs are anticipated, driven primarily by soaring drug prices, rising hospital admissions, and increasing behavioral health needs. A recent analysis indicates medical costs are forecasted to rise by approximately 8.5% for group plans and 7.5% for individual market plans. The impending expiration of enhanced federal subsidies is also likely to exacerbate these increases, potentially leading to a dramatic 75% rise in out-of-pocket premiums for policyholders, significantly impacting consumers' access to affordable coverage. As insurers navigate these challenges, cost control measures will be crucial in preserving the financial viability of healthcare for many Americans. Click here to learn more
Here are some things for Enovis employees and retirees to consider as they weigh potential tax moves between now and the end of the year.
1. Defer income to next year
Enovis employees must consider opportunities to defer income to 2023, particularly if you think you may be in a lower tax bracket then. For example, you may be able to defer a year-end bonus or delay the collection of business debts, rent, and payments for services. As a Enovis employee, doing so may enable you to postpone payment of tax on the income until next year.
2. Accelerate deductions
Enovis employees and retirees should also look for opportunities to accelerate deductions into the current tax year. If you itemize deductions, making payments for deductible expenses such as medical expenses, qualifying interest, and state taxes before the end of the year (instead of paying them in early 2023) could make a difference on your 2022 return.
3. Make deductible charitable contributions
As a Enovis employee, if you itemize deductions on your federal income tax return, you can generally deduct charitable contributions, but the deduction is limited to 50% (currently increased to 60% for cash contributions to public charities), 30%, or 20% of your adjusted gross income (AGI), depending on the type of property you give and the type of organization to which you contribute. (Excess amounts can be carried over for up to five years.)

4. Bump up withholding to cover a tax shortfall
As a Enovis employee, if it looks as though you will owe federal income tax for the year, consider increasing your withholding on Form W-4 for the remainder of the year to cover the shortfall. Time may be limited for Enovis employees to request a Form W-4 change and for their employers from Enovis to implement it in time for 2022. The biggest advantage in doing so is that withholding is considered as having been paid evenly throughout the year instead of when the dollars are actually taken from your paycheck. This strategy can be implemented by Enovis employees to make up for low or missing quarterly estimated tax payments.
5. Save more for retirement
Deductible contributions to a traditional IRA and pre-tax contributions to a Enovis-sponsored retirement plan such as a 401(k) can reduce your 2022 taxable income. As a fortune 500 employee, if you haven't already contributed up to the maximum amount allowed, consider doing so. For 2022, Enovis employees can contribute up to $20,500 to a 401(k) plan ($27,000 if you're age 50 or older) and up to $6,000 to traditional and Roth IRAs combined ($7,000 if you're age 50 or older).* The window to make 2022 contributions to a Enovis-sponsored plan generally closes at the end of the year, while you have until April 18, 2023, to make 2022 IRA contributions.
*Roth contributions are not deductible, but Roth-qualified distributions are not taxable.
6. Take the required minimum distributions
If you are a Enovis employee age 72 or older, you generally must take required minimum distributions (RMDs) from traditional IRAs and Enovis-sponsored retirement plans (special rules apply if you're still working and participating in Enovis's retirement plan). You have to make the withdrawals by the date required — the end of the year for most individuals. The penalty for failing to do so is substantial: 50% of the amount that wasn't distributed on time. As a fortune 500 employee, making these distributions in a timely manner is essential as to avoid the late penalty.
7. Weigh year-end investment moves
Enovis employees and retirees shouldn't let tax considerations drive investment decisions. However, it's worth considering the tax implications of any year-end investment moves that you make. For example, if you have realized net capital gains from selling securities at a profit, you might avoid being taxed on some or all of those gains by selling losing positions. As a Enovis employee, any losses over and above the number of your gains can be used to offset up to $3,000 of ordinary income ($1,500 if your filing status is married filing separately) or carried forward to reduce your taxes in future years.
