By taking advantage of the FSA, you can:

• Reduce your taxes
• Increase your take-home pay and spending power
• Pay for rising healthcare and dependent care costs with pre-tax dollars

Use it or Lose it!

Plan your participation carefully. While the FSA is a benefit that will save you money, there are some risks. To minimize your risk, keep these key points in mind when determining your annual election amount:

• Only expenses incurred during your period of coverage can be reimbursed by the FSA. Expenses incurred before or after the period of coverage are not reimbursable.
• An expense is considered "incurred" when you are provided with the care that gives rise to the expense, not when you are formally billed, or pay for the service.
• Unused dollars in the FSA at the end of the plan year cannot be carried over, and the unused dollars will be forfeited to the plan sponsor.
• Your election is irrevocable. You cannot change or cancel your election during the plan year, unless you have a qualifying "Change in Status" and your adjusted election is consistent with such a change.

The key to getting the most from your FSA is to maximize your contributions based on your anticipated eligible expenses. In order to plan your contributions, follow these steps:

• Review the list of eligible expenses
• Review your eligible expenses from last year
• Write down any new eligible expenses you anticipate in the new plan year
• Estimate your cost for eligible expenses (uncovered or partially covered expenses only)

Under your employer's FSA plan, you may elect to contribute to the Health FSA which will allow you to seek reimbursement for qualified medical expenses.聽Although you contribute to this account on a per payroll basis, your entire election amount is available on the first day of your coverage period. The Health FSA plan has a two-and-a-half month grace period, allowing you to use the current year's balance through March 15 of the following year.聽
