2027 Benefits Open Enrollment

Open Enrollment for your 2027 benefits will be held from October 26 – November 9, 2026. This is the period each year when you can make changes to your current benefit elections.

HDP with HSA Plan

The HDHP is a high deductible healthplan that provides health care benefitsafter the deductible has been met. Allmedical services, with the exception ofpreventive care, are paid for by you at100%, less carrier discounts, prior tomeeting your entire annual deductible.This includes routine office visits,procedures, lab work, prescription drugs, etc.

The HSA is a bank account paired with your HDHP allowing you to set aside money on a tax-free basis to pay your out-of-pocket qualified medical, dental, and vision expenses throughout the year or in the future. You own the money in your HSA account and it is yours to keep – even when you change plans or retire. The funds roll over from year to year to be used when you really need them.

If you enroll in the HSA plan, Elementis will contribute $750 for employee-only coverage or $1,500 for Family coverage to your HSA to help pay for qualified medical expenses now and in the future. Employer contributions will be deposited on a semi-annual basis in June and December.

PPO PLAN

A PPO plan offers the freedom to receive care from any in- or out-of-network doctor, specialist or hospital without a referral. You have a deductible to meet and once the deductible is met, coinsurance (the cost share between
you and the carrier) kicks in. The types of medical services that accumulate towards your deductible are inpatient hospital stays, outpatient surgeries, labs (blood work) and x-rays (MRIs, PET scans, CT scans, etc.).

Generally, if you go to the doctor, see a specialist, utilize the ER or take a prescription drug, you’ll pay a copay for those specific services. Copays do not accumulate towards your deductible but they do accumulate towards your overall out-of-pocket maximum.

Health Savings Account (HSA) ▼

Administered by WEX Benefits

HSA pairs with the HDHP medical plan.

Website: www.wexinc.com

Phone: 866.451.3399

You’re eligible for a health savings account if:

  • You are covered by a qualified high deductible health plan (HDHP)

  • You are not covered by any other medical coverage that is not considered a qualified HDHP

  • You are not enrolled in Medicare (Part A included)

  • You are not claimed as a dependent on someone’s tax return

  • You are not enrolled in a Medical Flexible Spending Account (your own or your spouse’s)


Advantages to having an HSA

  • There’s a triple tax savings benefit as contributions are not taxed going into the account, while they sit there earning interest or when they’re taken out for a qualified medical expense

  • Unused funds rollover each year with no maximum on how much you can save and accumulate over time

  • The account is portable so you never have to worry about losing the money in the account should you change between plans, retire or even seek employment elsewhere

  • Your HSA can be viewed as a second means of savings for your retirement

  • You control your healthcare spending and choose when to use your HSA dollars and when to save them

  • You become a more informed participant in your healthcare and healthcare spending

 

Steps to using your HSA

  • Go to the doctor and present your carrier ID

  • Your doctor submits your medical services to the carrier to be discounted

  • Your carrier adjusts the pricing to reflect the network discounted amount for your services

  • The carrier generates an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) and sends it to you

  • By now you’ve received an invoice from your doctor - make sure the EOB and invoice match

  • Pay your doctor directly with pre-tax dollars from your HSA or post-tax dollars from your pocket if funds are not available

 

Using your HSA on qualified expenses
You can use the money in your HSA to pay for qualified medical, dental and vision expenses permitted under federal tax law.

Flexible Spending Account (FSA) ▼

Administered by WEX Benefits

Website: www.wexinc.com

Phone: 866.451.3399

 

Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) allow you to save money on a pre-tax basis to pay for qualified medical expenses and/or dependent care expenses throughout the year. The money you put into your FSA is done so on a pre-tax basis. This means you are lowering your taxable income and also not paying taxes when the money is used for qualified expenses.

Health Care FSA

You may contribute up to $3,500 per plan year to pay for qualified medical, dental and vision expenses for yourself and eligible family members. Funds in this account can cover all eligible expenses on your tax dependents even if they are not enrolled under your health care plan. Eligible reimbursable expenses include medical and dental plan deductibles and copays (if applicable), orthodontia expenses not covered by your dental plan, prescription drugs, prescription eyeglasses and contact lenses, Lasik eye surgery and much more.

 

Limited Purpose FSA

If you enroll in the HDHP/ HSA plan and open a health savings account, you cannot enroll in the Health Care FSA, since you’re already putting tax-free dollars aside to pay for qualified expenses. You may, however, enroll in the Limited Purpose FSA, which allows you topay for eligible out-of-pocket dental and vision expenses. You can put up to $3,500 into your Limited Purpose FSA for 2027.

Under the Health Care FSA and the Limited Purpose FSA, you are eligible to roll over up to $700 to the next year.

Dependent Care FSA

You may contribute up to $7,500 per plan year to pay for qualified eligible dependent care expenses. Funds in this account are saved on a tax-free basis.
FSAs have a use-it-or-lose-it provision, so be conservative when electing how much to contribute.

 

Please note that the 2027 FSA limits shown are projected and are subject to change once the final 2027 limits are announced.
