Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs), administered by UnitedHealthcare (UHC), allow you to set aside pre-tax dollars to pay for eligible health care and dependent care expenses. Each year, you choose how much you want to contribute to one or both FSA accounts. Your elected contributions are deducted from your paycheck on a pre-tax basis, which can help lower your taxable income and maximize your savings.
Submit receipts and claims for reimbursement through your account at myuhc.com or call 833-312-1220.
