Here’s how it works:

Your employer has already established a Section 125 plan though AdvanStaff HR. We do most of the work for you, but you will need to opt into the program. The benefits and payroll department will guide you every step of the way.

Getting Started

At the time you were enrolled as an employee, you were given the opportunity to “flex” your portion of medical premiums paid from your paycheck. A signature was required to begin the program. Simply put, this is the easiest way to lower your overall out-of-pocket costs on medical premiums. If you think you missed enrollment in this benefit, don’t worry! Simply contact the AdvanStaff HR Benefits Department; you can re-elect to participate at open enrollment.

Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA)

Next, you have the option to open a Flexible Spending Account. These accounts are a means for your to pay for certain out-of-pocket health care or dependent care costs on a pretax basis.

The key here is to conservatively plan or estimate for the next 12 months how much you will be spending on qualified expenses. AdvanStaff HR will automatically annualize the expense and deduct them from your paycheck. These funds are held in your account until you submit a request for reimbursement.

Checking Your Balance

You can view your account balances in Web Edition at any time, or by calling anyone in the AdvanStaff HR benefits department.

Carefully plan how to use this benefit and check your balance often. Reimbursement checks are cut weekly and can be processed with your next payroll or dispersed by hard check. Balances left in the plan after the final cut-off date (March 31st of the following year) are forfeited to the plan according to IRS rules.
