Medical FSA and limited FSA
A flexible spending account (FSA) allows you to set aside up to $3,300 in pre-tax money to pay for eligible out of pocket expenses (including deductibles, copays and coinsurance) for medical, dental or vision expenses. This lowers your taxable income, and you don’t pay taxes on the money you use from your account(s). The FSA plan year is January 1 – December 31. Our FSA plans are administered by WEX.
For employees who do not contribute into an HSA account, Prevea Health sponsors a full (FSA) to help pay for everyday expenses (medical, dental and vision) on a pre-tax basis.
For employees with an HSA account, Prevea Health sponsors a limited purpose flexible spending account (FSA) to help you pay for everyday dental and vision expenses only on a pre-tax basis. A limited FSA allows you to still contribute to your Health Savings Account (HSA).
Contributions for either the full FSA or limited purpose FSA cannot be changed unless a qualifying life event occurs and must be made within 30 days of the event. All components of “use it or lose it” apply to both plans except for being able to rollover up to $660 to the next plan year. Participants must enroll annually during the designated open enrollment period.
