Ways To Use Your FSA and HSA Benefits

Don’t Let Your FSA Benefits or HSA Benefits Expire!

If you have vision health coverage from your Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA benefits), Health Savings Accounts (HSA benefits) or an employer sponsored vision insurance plan, it is important to keep in mind many of these types of plans have annual December 31st deadlines.

In order to take full advantage of them, contact us to schedule your appointment and use your HSA and FSA benefits!



What are some Flexible Spending Account Benefits?

Flexible Spending Account (or FSA) helps reduce your taxable income, which can allow you to get a larger paycheck after taxes. Flexible Spending Account benefits include allowing you to contribute income into a special tax-free account. This account can go toward your vision care needs. The only catch with Flexible Spending Account benefits is that you must use them by the end of the contribution year, or else they are forfeited.

Health Savings Account (or HSA) is a tax favored account you can use to offset high deductible health insurance. The money you put in a heath savings account pays deductibles for things like, well, eye doctor visits, glasses and more.

This is one of the Health Savings Account benefits that differs from Flexible Spending Accounts, which (as we just discussed) are forfeited annually.
