A Flexible Spending Account lets you set aside money through pre-tax payroll deductions. The money can be used for eligible healthcare and dependent day care expenses you and your family expect to incur during the next benefit year. The main benefit of using an FSA is that you reduce your taxable income, which means you have more money to spend. The catch is that you have to use the money in your account by our plan year's end.
