Commuter, FSA & HSA

NEW! Commuter Benefits, FSAs & HSA

Take advantage of tax-advantaged accounts that can help you save money on eligible health care, dependent care, and commuting expenses. Depending on your benefit elections, you may have access to a Health Savings Account (HSA), Flexible Spending Account (FSA), and Commuter Benefits through WEX. Contact your Human Resources representative for additional information.

Commuter Benefits

The Commuter Benefits program allows you to use pre-tax payroll deductions to pay for eligible commuting expenses, helping reduce your taxable income while saving on everyday transportation costs. Eligible expenses may include public transit fares, transit passes, vanpool costs, and qualified parking expenses.

By paying for eligible commuting expenses with pre-tax dollars, you can lower your out-of-pocket costs throughout the year.

Commuter Benefits for Participants

Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs): Healthcare & Dependent Care

A Flexible Spending Account (FSA) allows you to set aside pre-tax money from your paycheck to pay for eligible expenses, which can help reduce your taxable income.

Healthcare FSA

A Healthcare FSA can be used to pay for eligible medical, dental, vision, and prescription expenses for you and your eligible dependents. Funds are contributed through payroll deductions and are available to help offset everyday health care costs.

Dependent Care FSA

A Dependent Care FSA allows you to use pre-tax dollars to pay eligible dependent care expenses, such as childcare or care for an eligible adult dependent, while you work or attend school.

Because FSAs are governed by IRS regulations, contribution limits and account rules apply. Contact Human Resources for additional information regarding eligibility and plan provisions.

Health Savings Account (HSA)

If you are enrolled in a qualifying high-deductible health plan (HDHP), you may be eligible to open a Health Savings Account (HSA) through WEX. An HSA allows you to contribute pre-tax money to pay for eligible medical, dental, vision, and prescription expenses.

HSAs offer valuable tax advantages and help you save for current and future health care expenses. Funds in your account belong to you and carry over from year to year, allowing you to build savings over time.

Contribution limits and eligibility requirements are established by the IRS. Contact Human Resources for additional information regarding HSA eligibility and contribution limits.
