There are 2 types of FSA accounts available to you: the Healthcare FSA and the Dependent Care FSA. The Healthcare FSA allows you to pay for things like medical, dental and vision care as well as prescriptions. The Dependent Care FSA can be used for certain child care or elderly adult care expenses. All money put aside into an FSA is tax-free, so using these accounts can save you 30% or more.
FSA participants receive a debit card to pay for eligible expenses, so most can be paid without the need to file a claim. Remember to ALWAYS keep receipts from FSA purchases so you can promptly send them into our FSA provider as requested. FCPS has a dedicated phone number to call if you need help with anything at: 888-604-5394.
