Wayzata Country Club offers eligible employees plan and network options in order to provide you with a choice in how you pay for care. You can choose from a traditional plan with copays or a high deductible health plan (HDHP) that works in tandem with a health savings account (HSA).
Plan Choices
Plan 1: $2,500-75% Three for Free
This plan covers preventive care at 100% -- with no deductible. The first three office visits are free*, that covers the physician or specialist services. For other services, such as inpatient or outpatient hospitalizations, emergency treatment, visits in excess of three, and durable medical equipment, you must first meet your deductible. Then, you and the plan share the cost of services – called coinsurance. The plan will pay 75% and you will pay 25% of eligible services until you reach your out-of-pocket maximum. At that time, the plan will pay 100% of the cost of eligible services for the remainder of the calendar year.
Plan 2: $5,000-100% HDHP
You are responsible for all expenses with a HDHP, with the exception of preventive care, until you reach the applicable deductible. The deductible is the amount you must pay out-of-pocket before the plan pays for covered services – for single or family coverage. This plan covers preventive care at 100% -- with no deductible. For other services, such as inpatient or outpatient hospitalizations, emergency treatment and durable medical equipment, you must first meet your deductible. Once you meet your deductible, the plan pays 100% of all eligible expenses for the remainder of the calendar year.
Refer to your Employee Benefits Guide or the HealthPartners Plan Summaries for additional coverage information.

You decide how much you would like to contribute, when and how to spend the money on eligible expenses, and how to invest the balance.
As an eligible employee, you are eligible to participate in a Health Savings Account (HSA). HSAs are a tax-advantaged savings account paired with a high deductible health plan (HDHP) exclusively for the purpose of paying qualified medical, dental and vision expenses for you, your spouse and your dependents.
You must be enrolled in WCC's Plan 2 $5,000-100% HDHP to be eligible to contribute to an HSA. At enrollment, you select how much money you want deducted from each paycheck on a pre-tax basis to meet your medical needs. You may change your election throughout the year.

Flexible Spending Account (FSA) can be a great way to save money on taxes and pay for unexpected medical expenses.
A flexible spending account (FSA) allows employees to pay for qualified medical, dental, vision, or dependent care expenses with pre-tax dollars. Pre-tax means before state, federal, Social Security, and Medicare taxes are applied.
Flexible Spending Accounts are voluntary accounts that allow you to use pre-tax funds to pay for certain health care and dependent day care expenses as determined by IRS regulations. You can set up two separate accounts – one for qualified health care expenses and one for qualified dependent day care expenses. These are two separate accounts for two separate purposes. The monies in one account cannot be used to satisfy expenses in the other account. You can participate in either or both accounts.
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.
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.
Important FSA Rules
Healthcare FSA Rollover
Health Care FSA’s have a $680 roll over feature, which allows any amount of $680 or less remaining in your account at the end of the plan year to roll over into the new plan year.
“Use It” OR “Lose It”
Estimate expenses carefully because the federal use-it or lose-it law means any amount remaining in your account after the March 31, 2027, filing deadline – except for any rollover amount – will be forfeited.
