Tax-Free Spending and Savings Accounts

Set aside money on a pre-tax basis to pay for eligible expenses. The accounts help you cover eligible expenses with dedicated funds, while also getting a tax savings advantage.

See below for 2023 details.

Don't Forget

 

Keep in mind, the FSA accounts are subject to use it or lose it rules, which means that you have until marzo 15 of the following calendar year to incur eligible expenses, then until abril 30 to submit final claims. Dollars remaining in the account after abril 30 will be forfeited.

See a list of eligible expenses

Cómo trabajan ellos

Tax-free spending and savings accounts allow you to set aside pre-tax money to pay for certain expenses.

  • Healthcare accounts can be used for eligible medical, dental and vision expenses.
  • Dependent care accounts can be used for eligible adult or childcare expenses.

The amount you contribute comes out of your paycheck before taxes, giving you a tax savings advantage. 

We offer four tax-free spending and savings accounts—three for health expenses and one for dependent care expenses. Optum Bank administers all four accounts. The chart below shows how the accounts pair with our medical plans.

*The Limited-purpose FSA can be used for dental, vision and qualified expenses the medical plan doesn't cover until you meet your medical plan deductible. Once your deductible is met, you can use FSA funds for all eligible medical and prescription expenses, too.

HSA Plan enrollees can be enrolled in both the limited-purpose FSA and the HSA.

Dependent care FSA is available to all eligible employees, whether enrolled in a medical plan or not.
