3 What is a flexible benefit plan? Its a benefit provided by your employer that lets you set aside a certain amount of your paycheck into an account before paying income taxes. During the year you can use funds in the account to pay for: qualified healthcare expenses not covered by insurance day-care expenses for a dependent child or elder so you can work Elections can only be made/changed during open enrollment or after a qualified family status change, as your plan allows. 3

4 What expenses qualify? The Health FSA is used to pay for expenses not covered by insurance. These include expenses you pay for you and your family: Doctors Office Visits Prescription drugs Prescribed Over-the-counter (OTC) medication Eye exams and surgeries Glasses and contacts Dental and Orthodontics And more 4

5 What expenses qualify? The Dependent Care FSA is used to pay for work- related day care expenses. These include expenses you pay for your qualifying dependents: Day care/nursery school Before/After school care Summer day camp/Summer day care Elder day care 5
