Flexible spending accounts allow employees to set aside money on a pre-tax basis to pay for eligible out-of-pocket medical and dependent care expenses, therefore reducing taxable income. The monies set aside for these accounts must be used for expenses not reimbursed by other coverage.
The Health Care Spending Account allows you to be reimbursed for non-covered and medically necessary medical, dental or eye care expenses. Employees can contribute a maximum of $3,050 in into a health care flexible spending account. Participants will receive a debit card for easy FSA withdrawals for eligible items. The plan will continue to have a grace period for claim submissions. For all claims incurred prior to December 31, 2022, the claims must be submitted to Chard Snyder no later than March 31, 2023. In addition, FSA funds up to $610 may be carried over to the 2023 plan year.
The Dependent Care Spending Account allows you to be reimbursed for child and dependent care expenses (e.g., daycare etc.) for dependents up to the age of 13 that are required for you or your spouse to work. Employees can contribute a maximum of $2,500 or $5,000 if married and filing a joint tax return.
