Flexible Spending Accounts
-
IRS laws allow eligible employees to make pre-tax contributions to flexible spending accounts to pay for out-of-pocket health care expenses and/or employment-related dependent/elderly daycare expenses.
-
Health Care Account
Enrolled employees can contribute up to $2,850 on a pre-tax basis every fiscal year and be reimbursed for medical, dental, prescriptions, and vision expenses not paid by insurance. Examples of eligible expenses may include co-pays, deductibles, orthodontia, eyeglasses, and certain over-the-counter medications.
-
Dependent Care Account
Enrolled employees can contribute up to $5000 (per household) on a pre-tax basis every fiscal year and be reimbursed for eligible daycare expenses. Eligible expenses may include qualified daycare centers for children and adults, babysitters, pre-school, and general-purpose day camps while you work.
-
Employees determine how much money to contribute to the account, up to specified maximums, based on anticipated expenses during the plan year. Each pay period, a portion of that amount is credited to the flexible spending account. The employee submits claim forms or uses the consumer account card to get reimbursed.
