Flexible Spending Account (FSA)

FSAs allow you to use pre-tax dollars deducted from your pay to reimburse yourself for eligible expenses. Using pre-taxed dollars reduces your gross taxable income, saving you money. The FSAs are administered by WEX. We offer the following options:


MEDICAL CARE FSA 

This account can be used to pay for eligible medical expenses for yourself or any other person you claim as a dependent for your federal income tax purposes. Pre-tax deductions for the Medical Care FSA cannot exceed $3,300 for 2025. Employees or qualified beneficiaries who were eligible for the health FSA are eligible to rollover dollars up to $660 in the new plan year.

DEPENDENT CARE FSA 

This account can be used to pay for qualified dependent care services for eligible dependents, providing that care is needed to enable you and your spouse (if applicable) to work. Pre-tax deductions for the Dependent Care FSA cannot exceed $5,000 per plan year per household, or $2,500 if you are married and file separate tax returns.

 

TRANSIT AND PARKING FSA

Employees can choose to have up to $315 per month deducted from their paychecks on a pre-tax basis to cover work-related parking and/or transit expenses. To enroll in this benefit, fill out this form and email it to Human Resources.
