Flex Your Finances

You can save several hundred dollars annually by establishing a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) through HealthEquity.

These are IRS-approved accounts into which you may elect to put money to pay for many out-of-pocket health care and/or dependent care expenses. You do not pay taxes on this money, which means more money in your pocket!

  • Employees must enroll online during Open Enrollment. The deadline to enroll is Thursday, Oct. 31, 2024, at 4:45 p.m. Previous elections do not roll over to the next calendar year. 

  • The amount that can be deferred into an FSA Medical Spending Account for 2025 is increasing to $3,200. The Dependent Care Spending Account limit will remain at $5,000.

  • To learn more about the FSA program and how it can help you save money, visit the HealthEquity website.

  • HealthEquity has teamed with fsastore.com to offer an online store stocked with FSA-eligible products, helping you eliminate the confusion of which products are eligible with your account. 

  • The Health Care FSA carryover limit from 2024 to the 2025 plan year will be $640.

  • IMPORTANT:If choosing the HDHP, you will have until the end of the run-out period, March 31, 2025, to file for reimbursement for the remaining of your FSA monies. Any remaining balance after March 31, 2025, will be forfeited.
