Benefits RenewalBenefits RenewalFlex PlanFlex Plan
Set aside on a pre-tax basis up to $5000 in anticipated and qualified health expenses and $5000 in dependent care costs through your flex plan on an annual basis.
You and your dependents do not need to be enrolled in Summit’s benefits to be reimbursed for qualified expenses under our FSA. However, you cannot claim the same expenses that are reimbursed through another plan, such as a spouse’s flex or HSA account.
Dependent care expenses will be reimbursed once you have accumulated the money in your account to cover that expense/ claim for reimbursement.
You have until March 31st of the following calendar year to turn in your receipts for qualified expenses incurred between January 1st through December 31st. Money accumulated in your account but not reimbursed in time will be forfeited.
Benefits RenewalBenefits RenewalFlex Plan Flex Plan (continued)(continued)
Advantages:
The “Unreimbursed Medical” acts like an interest free loan. You can incur and be reimbursed for the expenses in January, for example, but only make small payments throughout the year through payroll deductions to cover that expense.
Your payroll deducted flex elections and insurance premiums are deducted pre-tax to save you money. Be advised that you cannot make plan changes throughout the year unless you have a qualifying event.
Expenses you pay out in prescriptions, copays, deductibles, coinsurance etc. on your medical, dental, and vision plans are qualified expenses to be reimbursed through your flex.

9/80 Program Reminders:
You should be working during your scheduled working hours. Coming in early and working late is not intended for visiting and taking breaks.
The program is a privilege and continues to be evaluated. If it is abused, the abuser can be removed from the program, or the program eliminated all together.
Although it’s not our intent to have associates work on their day off, you need to make sure your work is taken care of before taking off or leaving early that Friday.
