Health Care and Dependent Care
Flexible Spending Accounts

Health Care Flexible Spending Account:

This plan allows for reimbursement of out-of-pocket medical expenses from pre-tax dollars you contribute for medical, dental, or other health care expenses not covered by health or dental insurance. You must enroll in this plan each year.

You may choose to set aside an amount through payroll deduction on a pre-tax basis. (Minimum $10 a month, maximum $350 a month.)

The Dependent Day Care Flexible Spending Account:

This plan benefits employees with dependent children under age 13, an incapacitated spouse, or dependent adult who lives with the employee at least 8 hours a day. With this account you are reimbursed with pre-tax dollars you contribute for child care or dependent adult care expenses that allow you to continue to work. You must enroll in this plan each year.

You may choose to set aside an amount through payroll deduction on a pre-tax basis. (Minimum $10 a month, maximum $416.66 a month.)

Be sure to sign up for the convenience card which allows you the opportunity to pay expenses directly to providers or pharmacies-it’s just like using a credit card! See page 20 of the NCFlex enrollment booklet for more information.
