Save by Using Tax-Free Dollars in your Flexible Spending Account (FSA) to Pay for
LASIK, ICL, Crystalens and ReSTOR surgery!
What is a Flexible Spending Account (FSA)?
A Flexible Spending Account (FSA) allows you to pay for eligible medical expenses on a pre-tax
basis. (An FSA may also be referred to as a flex plan, reimbursement account, Flex 125,
Tax Saving Plan, Medical Spending Account, a Section 125, or a Cafeteria Plan.) Not all
employers participate in FSA programs. Check with your HR department or benefits
manager to determine if your employer participates.
FSA Benefits
Contributions to a Flexible Spending Account are deducted from your pay before federal, state, or social security taxes are calculated, allowing you to decrease your taxable income and increase spendable income. You can save hundreds or even thousands of dollars a year.
How does it work?
At the beginning of the plan year (which usually starts January 1st), you determine how much
money you want to contribute for the year. You have only one opportunity each year to enroll,
unless you have a qualified "family status change", such as marriage, birth, divorce, or loss
of a spouse's insurance coverage. The amount you designate for the year is taken out of your
paycheck in equal installments each pay period and placed in a special account by your employer.
As you incur medical expenses that are not covered by your insurance, you submit a copy of
the Explanation of Benefits or the provider's invoice and proof of payment to the plan
administrator, who will then issue you a reimbursement check. It is important to calculate
how much money to contribute for the year. Any unused money left in the account at year's
end is forfeited.
What expenses are eligible?
Any expense that is considered a deductible medical expense by the IRS and is not reimbursed
through your insurance can be reimbursed through the FSA. These include most elective surgery,
laser vision correction, deductibles, eyeglasses, and prescription drug co-payments.
For LASIK, ICL, Crystalens and ReSTOR surgery, we recommend that you have a consultation
first to determine candidacy prior to making any allocations to your Flexible Spending Account.
