FSA

Flexible Spending Accounts with WEXHealth

The FSA Accounts will switch from being administered by Further by Health Equity to WEXHealth effective January 1, 2023.


The Health Care and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) allow you to set aside pre-tax dollars to pay for eligible expenses. By contributing to one or both of the Flexible Spending Accounts you reduce your taxable income, so you pay less in taxes — which saves you money.


Eligibility

Full-time: Health Care FSA, Limited Health Care FSA, and/or Dependent Care FSA


Contributions

The election you make during enrollment is your election for the entire plan year. You may change it only if you have a qualifying life event and the change request must be consistent with the event.



You may contribute as follows:

Health Care FSA

  • Up to $3,050 annually
  • All benefit eligible can participate, unless you or your spouse are contributing to an HSA.
  • Reimbursements allowed for unreimbursed medical, prescription, dental, and vision expenses


Limited Health Care FSA used with an HSA

  • Up to $3,050 annually
  • Only participants who contribute to an HSA are eligible
  • Reimbursements are limited to unreimbursed dental and vision expenses only


Dependent Care FSA

  • Up to $5,000 annually
  • Limited to $2,500 if you are married and file separate tax returns


How the Plan Works

You must incur your eligible expenses during the plan year — January 1 to December 31. An expense is considered to be incurred when the service is performed, not when you are billed or pay for the service. You do, however, have until March 31st annually to file your claims. Any funds after March 31 unclaimed will be forfeited.

HSA

Health Savings Account (HSA) WEXHealth

You must be enrolled in the $3,000 HSA Plan to be eligible to contribute to an HSA.


At enrollment, you select how much money you want deducted from each paycheck (26) on a pre-tax basis to meet your medical needs. You may change your election throughout the year. The IRS limits the amount of contributions employees are allowed each year, as follows:


2023 Annual Maximum Contribution

  • Employee Only: $3,850
  • All other tiers: $7,750


If you are between the ages of 55-65, you can also make an additional $1,000 “catch-up” contribution annually.

Transportation Reimbursement Account (TRA)
