Plan for out-of-pocket medical and dependent care costs before the year begins with a Health Flexible Spending Account (Health FSA). Part of being future ready is planning how to pay for upcoming healthcare expenses. With a Health FSA, out of pocket healthcare expenses are covered with pre-tax dollars, so what you contribute to your Health FSA is reduced from your taxable income. And with Voya’s Health FSA, your funds are available 24/7. You can easily access account information, transactions and contributions online or with the mobile app.

Keep your healthcare covered

What is a Health FSA?A Health FSA is an employer-sponsored plan that allows you to deduct dollars from your paycheck and deposit them into a special account that’s exempt from federal income taxes, Social Security (FICA) taxes and, in most cases, state income taxes. The money in a Health FSA can be used for eligible healthcare expenses that are incurred while you are participating in the plan.

How does a Health FSA work?Enroll, elect an annual contribution and start savingBefore you enroll, you must first decide how much you want to contribute to your account(s). Keep in mind that the amount of your pay that goes into a Health FSA may not count as taxable income, so you can have immediate tax savings. You will want to spend some time estimating your anticipated eligible medical expenses for the coming calendar year. Be sure to estimate your healthcare expenses carefully as money left unspent in your Health FSA at the end of the year will not rollover.During enrollment, you will select an annual contribution amount. This amount will be prorated and deducted from your paychecks in equal installments throughout the year. Then, your Health FSA dollars can be used during the plan year to pay for qualified healthcare expenses and services.Contributions are available for reimbursement based on your payroll deduction cycle. As you use your Limited Purpose FSA throughout the year, be sure to save your receipts. You’ll need them to verify your expenses for the IRS. As an account holder, you will have access to a secure web portal and mobile app to save images of your receipts, track your balance and view account details, such as contributions and distributions. You will also be able to report a lost or stolen debit card and connect with customer service through the portal and mobile app.
