Cafeteria Plan
- Careflex: Dependent care expenses are covered if the dependent is age 12 or under, or physically or mentally incapable of self-care. An incapacitated dependent, who is age 13 or older must regularly spend at least eight hours a day in the employee’s household to qualify. These expenses must be incurred to allow an employee and spouse to work unless the spouse is a full-time student or incapable of self-care. Eligible expenses include the costs for in-house or on-site care centers (caring for six (6) or more individuals) or at-home services provided by third parties who meet applicable state and federal law standards. Preschool costs for a child may also qualify for reimbursement. The maximum allowable expense per year is $5,000 for a married couple. Dependent care expenses reimbursed cannot be applied toward the federal income tax credit for dependent care. During the Plan year (September through August) flexible spending account participants may not change the amount of their monthly deduction unless major changes in a family status occur.
- Unreimbursed Medical Expenses: This plan allows for non-reimbursed medical expenses up the amount of $5,000 to be paid with before tax dollars. You may choose to defer a certain dollar amount per month and then, as eligible expenses are incurred, file for reimbursement by providing receipts for covered expenses. During the plan year, participants cannot change their election unless major changes in a family status occur. Should you have medical expenses in excess of available funds in the medical reimbursement account, you cannot claim against the dependent care account. Funds in the accounts must remain separate.
A claim form and supporting documentation, such as explanations of benefits, receipts, etc. must be submitted directly to Southern Administrators and Benefit Consultants.
