  23. Healthcare FSA and Limited Purpose FSA $500 Carryover Healthcare FSA and Limited Purpose FSA:  Carryover up to $500 into the next plan year  Funds over $500 will be forfeited the next plan year  Annual maximum can still be elected when rolling over prior year funds  $500 carryover added to annual election  90-day grace period for the following year is eliminated  Plan year contributions must be used by Dec. 31  Claims can be submitted through April 15 of next plan year  Grace period will continue for the 2017 plan year  Total amount of plan year election with carryover amount will be shown on Chard Snyder Portal -- not in People First  If an employee has up to $500 of carryover funds and does not elect a healthcare FSA the following plan year, their funds will continue to carry over year to year until the funds are depleted. The Benny Card will continue to be active and the balance of funds will be available on the Chard Snyder Portal Rev. 10/2017 23

  24. Healthcare FSA and Limited Purpose FSA $500 Carryover Example: On Jan. 1, 2019, Mary has $475 remaining in her 2018 healthcare FSA. The $475 will carry over to the 2019 plan year. Mary can file claims for services received in 2018 through April 15, 2019. Any services received in 2018 will be deducted from the $475. If the services rendered in 2018 are more than the $475, she will not be able to dip into 2019 money. Example: On Jan. 1, 2019, John has $600 remaining in his 2018 healthcare FSA. John has one service for $50 that he filed a claim for prior to the April 15, 2019 deadline. The $50 will be deducted from the $600 remaining balance. However, only $500 will be carried over for services rendered in 2019. In this instance, John would lose $50. Example: During open enrollment, for the 2019 plan year, Fred decides that he no longer wishes to have an healthcare FSA. On Jan. 1, 2019, Fred has $500 remaining in his 2018 healthcare FSA. Fred can continue to use this money for qualifying expenses until the funds are exhausted, even though he does not have an FSA plan for the 2019 plan year. Rev. 10/2017 24
