Flexible Spending Accounts 2017 Beneits Enrollment
(FSAs)
A lexible spending account (FSA) is an easy way to lower your taxes and increase
your spendable income. With an FSA, you set aside part of the money you earn
each year before taxes are calculated. Then, that money is paid back to you as
reimbursement for eligible health care, dependent care or transportation expenses
which you incurred and have to pay out of your own pocket.
You Must Actively Enroll
If you want to participate in the lexible spending account in 2017, you must actively
enroll during annual enrollment.
How the Plan Works
Discovery Beneits will be our new administrator in 2017. There are four types.
Full Scope Health Care
This account is for eligible health care expenses not paid by insurance. This includes
deductibles, coinsurance, prescription drugs, dental, and vision expenses. You may
use the account for your eligible dependents’ expenses too.
In 2017, you can contribute up to $2,600 pre-tax to this account. Up to $500 unused
dollars can be rolled over to the next plan year.
