Q: What is a Flexible Spending Account?
A: A Flexible Spending Account (FSA) is an employer-sponsored benefit that allows employees to set aside pre-tax dollars to pay for qualified medical expenses.
Q: How does a Flexible Spending Account work?
A: Money is deducted from your paycheck before taxes and placed into your FSA. You can use the funds in your FSA to pay for eligible medical expenses throughout the year.
Q: What expenses can be paid with a Flexible Spending Account?
A: Qualified medical expenses such as doctor visits, prescription medications, and certain medical supplies can be paid with funds from a Flexible Spending Account.
Q: Can I use FSA funds for over-the-counter medications?
A: As of 2020, you can only use FSA funds for over-the-counter medications with a prescription.
Q: What happens if I don't use all the funds in my FSA?
A: Any money left in your FSA at the end of the plan year is typically forfeited, so it's important to estimate your expenses carefully.
Q: Can I change my FSA contribution amount during the year?
A: In most cases, you can only make changes to your FSA contribution amount during your company's open enrollment period or if you experience a qualifying life event.
