Administered by Inspira
The Flexible Spending Account allows employees to take advantage of the provisions in Section 125 of the Internal Revenue Code. This Code section provides that payroll deductions for health insurance, dental insurance, life insurance, and child care will be taken on a before-tax basis. This plan must always comply with the latest requirements of the IRS code and therefore changes may occur without notice.
Healthcare Flexible Spending Account:
During open enrollment, you set amounts for the upcoming year (minimum $100 – maximum $3,300) based on an estimated amount of medical expenses for the upcoming year. The amount is divided by the number of pay periods in the year and then redirected from each paycheck – before taxes – into your account. The Flexible Spending Account is provided by Inspira. You receive a debit card for most expenses, or you can submit your receipts and a claim form as found on the Forms section of the WMC intranet. Either way, the account reimburses you in tax-free money.
You may incur expenses through the end of the plan year (ex. 2025 Plan Year ends 12/31/2025). Unused funds at the end of the plan year, up to $660, will rollover to the next plan year and continue to be available to you for expenses occurred in the next plan year. Any unused funds above the $660 rollover amount will be forfeited.
Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account:
This plan works much like the Flexible Spending Account mentioned above. At the beginning of each year, you decide the amount needed to cover dependent care costs over the course of the year. When you incur eligible dependent care expenses from any allowable provider, the account reimburses you in tax-free money. This covers most of the expenses related to the care of an eligible dependent so that you can work full time. If you are married, both you and your spouse must work full time, or your spouse must be disabled or a full-time student, to qualify for this account. The maximum contribution annually is $5,000.
You may incur and submit expenses up to 90 days after the plan year ends (ex. 2025 Plan Year ends 12/31/2025, incur/submit deadline 3/31/2026), this is called a grace period. Any unused funds after the grace period will be forfeited.
