Getting Started

  1. Estimate the amount you will spend in Health and/or Dependent Care during the coming Plan Year. If you are a newly eligible employee, estimate the amount you will spend during the remainder of the current Plan Year. Please review the healthcare, dependent care, and premium reimbursement summaries for the accounts offered at your employer. Each account is separate. Funds cannot be transferred from one account to another. The maximum annual limit the dependent care account is $5,000 per family per year and contact your HR department for the healthcare account maximum.
  2. Divide your annual election by the number of pay periods in the plan year. This number is located on your announcement letter. As a newly eligible employee, divide your election by the number of pays remaining in the Plan Year. The amount(s) will then be deducted from your paycheck on a pre-tax basis each pay period, in equal installments.
  3. Enter all applicable information on the enrollment form, sign and return it in to your employer by the deadline date, located on the announcement letter. Please check with your employer to see if you can enroll online.(link to online)
  4. When you incur an eligible expense, be sure to get a detailed receipt containing the actual date of service, name and address of the provider, a description of the services rendered and the amount charged. Your claim form and receipts can be faxed or mailed to FlexAmerica
