A Flexible Spending Account (FSA) is a way for you to save income taxes when paying for eligible Health Care or Dependent Care expenses.
You estimate your anticipated expenses, then choose how much to set aside in your FSA account on a pre-tax basis. You then pay for your eligible expenses with money from your FSA. You must use all of the money in your FSA during the Plan Year, or you will lose any unused funds.
You must re-enroll at Open Enrollment every year to continue participation for the next Plan Year.
For more information, please refer to the Flexible Spending Accounts section of the PPS website.
