JANUARY HEALTHY HABITS FOR A HEALTHY YEAR

Start the year focusing on habits that can support a healthy, happy, and safe year ahead. Schedule preventive care appointments, declutter (home and work spaces), practice self-care, and improve your time management skills.

The Deadline for Using Your 2018 PayFlex Flexible Spending Account (“FSA”) is March 15, 2019. Use Your Money or Lose it!

If you enrolled in the 2018 Healthcare and/or Dependent Day Care FSA and have not yet spent down your balance, you may incur eligible expenses until March 15, 2019. You then have until March 30, 2019 to submit receipts for reimbursement of those eligible expenses, provided they were incurred between January 1, 2018 and March 15, 2019. If you miss either of these deadlines, that money - YOUR money– will sadly disappear in a puff of smoke. Please start thinking of ways to use those

funds and make sure to both spend the money by March 15, 2019 AND submit the claims by March 30, 2019. If you have FSA funds still available, and are looking for ideas on how to use those funds for eligible expenses, you may want to perform an internet search. You should easily find a number of sites that provide examples of FSA eligible expenses.

PayFlex to Anthem effective January 1, 2019. If you had a 2018 FSA account with PayFlex, your debit card was deactivated on December 31, 2018. If you still have 2018 FSA funds available to spend, you can request reimbursement using a paper claim form (available on Reliance Roots) or by uploading your claim on PayFlex’s website at payflex.com.
