  5. FLEX Changes • Since January 1, 2013, you have only been allowed to FLEX $2500 per year on medical. Dependent care remains at $5000. • This is an IRS rule that we had nothing to do with. • There is an option to you, although the option may contain an element of risk.

  6. Health Savings Accounts • With an HSA, you can put up to $3300 per year into your account or $6550 if your spouse/dependent is on your plan. If you are over age 55, you can put up to $1000 more per year into the account. • You select to withdraw any amount up to that and the deposits would be automatically made to an account we set up with Health Equity. • You are free to use the funds as you need them for health care related expenses.
