SUMMARY PAGES
Section 125 Cafeteria Plan Guidelines A Cafeteria plan enables you to save money by using pre-tax dollars to pay for eligible group insurance premiums sponsored and offered by your employer. Enrollment is automatic unless you decline this benefit. Elections made during annual enrollment will become effective on the plan effective date and will remain in effect during the entire plan year.
CHANGES IN STATUS (CIS):
Changes in benefit elections can occur only if you experience a qualifying event. You must present proof of a qualifying event to your Benefit Office within 30 days of your qualifying event and meet with your Benefit/HR Office to complete and sign the necessary paperwork in order to make a benefit election change. Benefit changes must be consistent with the qualifying event.
QUALIFYING EVENTS
Marital Status
A change in marital status includes marriage, death of a spouse, divorce or annulment (legal separation is not recognized in all states).
Change in Number of Tax Dependents
A change in number of dependents includes the following: birth, adoption and placement for adoption. You can add existing dependents not previously enrolled whenever a dependent gains eligibility as a result of a valid change in status event.
Change in Status of Employment Affecting Coverage Eligibility
Change in employment status of the employee, or a spouse or dependent of the employee, that affects the individual's eligibility under an employer's plan includes commencement or termination of employment.
An event that causes an employee's dependent to satisfy or cease to satisfy coverage requirements Gain/Loss of Dependents' under an employer's plan may include change in age, student, marital, employment or tax dependent Eligibility Status status. If a judgment, decree, or order from a divorce, annulment or change in legal custody requires that you provide accident or health coverage for your dependent child (including a foster child who is your dependent), you may change your election to provide coverage for the dependent child. If the order Judgment/Decree/Order requires that another individual (including your spouse and former spouse) covers the dependent child and provides coverage under that individual's plan, you may change your election to revoke coverage only for that dependent child and only if the other individual actually provides the coverage. Eligibility for Gain or loss of Medicare/Medicaid coverage may trigger a permitted election change. Government Programs

HSA BANK
HSA (Health Savings Account)
YOUR BENEFITS PACKAGE
About this Benefit A Health Savings Account is a tax-advantaged medical savings account available to employees who are enrolled in a high-deductible health plan. The funds contributed to the account are not subject to federal income tax at the time of deposit. Unlike a flexible spending account (FSA), funds roll over and accumulate year to year if not spent.
DID YOU KNOW? The interest earned in an HSA is tax free.
Money withdrawn for medical spending never falls under taxable income.

You may not Authorized Signers who are 55 or older must have their own enroll in the MEDlink® plan if you participate in the HSA.

What is an HSA?
A tax-advantaged savings account that you use to pay for eligible medical expenses as well as deductible, co-insurance, prescriptions, vision and dental care. Allows you to save while reducing your taxable income. Unused funds that will roll over year to year. There’s no “use it or lose it” penalty. A way to accumulate additional retirement savings. After age 65, funds can be withdrawn for any purpose without penalty.

Debit Card You may use the card to pay merchants or service providers that accept VISA credit cards, so there is no need to pay cash up front and wait for reimbursements. You can make a withdrawal at any time. Reimbursements for qualified medical expenses are tax free. If you are disabled or reach age 65, you can receive non-medical distributions without penalty, but you must report the distributions as taxable income. You may also use your funds for a spouse or tax dependent not covered by your HDHP.

How the HSA Plan Works A Health Savings Account (HSA) is an individually-owned, tax-advantaged account that you can use to pay for current or future IRS-qualified medical expenses. With an HSA, you’ll have the potential to build more savings for healthcare expenses or additional retirement savings through self-directed investment options1.
How an HSA works:
You can contribute to your HSA via payroll deduction, online banking transfer, or by sending a personal check to HSA Bank. Your employer or third parties, such as a spouse or parent, may contribute to your account as well. You can pay for qualified medical expenses with your HSA Bank Debit Card directly to your medical provider or pay out-of-pocket. You can either choose to reimburse yourself or keep the funds in your HSA to grow your savings. Unused funds will roll over year to year. After age 65, funds can be withdrawn for any purpose without penalty (subject to ordinary income taxes). Check balances and account information via HSA Bank’s Internet Banking 24/7.
Are you eligible for an HSA? If you have a qualified High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) either through your employer, through your spouse, or one you’ve purchased on your own - chances are you can open an HSA. Additionally: You cannot be covered by any other non-HSA-compatible health plan, including Medicare Parts A and B. You cannot be covered by TriCare. You cannot have accessed your VA medical benefits in the past 90 days (to contribute to an HSA). You cannot be claimed as a dependent on another person’s tax return (unless it’s your spouse). You must be covered by the qualified HDHP on the first day of the month. When you open an account, HSA Bank will request certain information to verify your identity and to process your application.
What are the annual IRS contribution limits? Contributions made by all parties to an HSA cannot exceed the annual HSA limit set by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Anyone can contribute to your HSA, but only the accountholder and employer can receive tax deductions on those contributions. Combined annual contributions for the accountholder, employer, and third parties (i.e., parent, spouse, or anyone else) must not exceed these limits2.
20
2016 Annual HSA Contribution Limits Individual = $3,350 Family = $6,750
Catch-up Contributions Accountholders who meet these qualifications are eligible to make an HSA catch-up contribution of $1,000: Health Savings accountholder; age 55 or older (regardless of when in the year an accountholder turns 55); not enrolled in Medicare (if an accountholder enrolls in Medicare mid-year, catch-up contributions should be prorated). Authorized signers who are 55 or older must have their own HSA in order to make the catch-up contribution. According to IRS guidelines, each year you have until the tax filing deadline to contribute to your HSA (typically April 15 of the following year). Online contributions must be submitted by 2:00 p.m., Central Time, the business day before the tax filing deadline. Wire contributions must be received by noon, Central Time, on the tax filing deadline, and contribution forms with checks must be received by the tax filing deadline.
How can you benefit from tax savings? An HSA provides triple tax savings3. Here’s how: Contributions to your HSA can be made with pre-tax dollars and any after-tax contributions that you make to your HSA are tax deductible. HSA funds earn interest and investment earnings are tax free. When used for IRS-qualified medical expenses, distributions are free from tax.
IRS-Qualified Medical Expenses You can use your HSA to pay for a wide range of IRS-qualified medical expenses for yourself, your spouse, or tax dependents. An IRS-qualified medical expense is defined as an expense that pays for healthcare services, equipment, or medications. Funds used to pay for IRS-qualified medical expenses are always tax-free. HSA funds can be used to reimburse yourself for past medical expenses if the expense was incurred after your HSA was established. While you do not need to submit any receipts to HSA Bank, you must save your bills and receipts for tax purposes.

1 Investment accounts are not FDIC insured, may lose value and are not a deposit or other obligation of, or guarantee by the bank. Investment losses which are replaced are subject to the annual contribution limits of the HSA. 2 HSA funds contributed in excess of these limits are subject to penalty and tax unless the excess and earnings are withdrawn prior to the due date, including any extensions for filing Federal Tax returns. Accountholders should consult with a qualified tax advisor in connection with excess contribution removal. The Internal Revenue Service requires HSA Bank to report withdrawals that are considered refunds of excess contributions. In order for the withdrawal to be accurately reported, accountholders may not withdraw the excess directly. Instead, an excess contribution refund must be requested from HSA Bank and an Excess Contribution Removal Form completed. 3 Federal Tax savings are available no matter where you live and HSAs are taxable in AL, CA, and NJ. HSA Bank does not provide tax advice. Consult your tax professional for tax‐related questions. 4 This list is not comprehensive. It is provided to you with the understanding that HSA Bank is not engaged in rendering tax advice. The information provided is not intended to be used to avoid Federal tax penalties. For more detailed information, please refer to IRS Publication 502 titled, “Medical and Dental Expenses”. Publications can be ordered directly from the IRS by calling 1-800-TAXFORM. If tax advice is required, you should seek the services of a professional. 5 Insurance premiums only qualify as an IRS-qualified medical expense: while continuing coverage under COBRA; for qualified long-term care coverage; coverage while receiving unemployment compensation; for any healthcare coverage for those over age 65 including Medicare (except Medicare supplemental coverage).

QCD Discount Dental The QCD Philosophy QCD believes that you should pay the lowest monthly cost possible for comprehensive dental and vision benefit coverage for your family. The member benefits from significant cost savings when and if services are used.
Monthly Cost MONTHLY Employee Only

Employee and One Dependent

Employee and Entire Household

Why Select QCD? When selecting dental benefits, QCD makes good financial sense. QCD allows you to allocate more of your benefit expenditures to your rising medical costs. A single dental procedure (Root Canal and Crown) could cost you as much as $2000 with no coverage. The QCD program will allow you to save up to 60% on the total cost – that could be as much as $1200 in savings and enough to fund your family’s monthly dental and vision benefit costs for several years.

TASC
FSA (Flexible Spending Account)
YOUR BENEFITS PACKAGE
About this Benefit A Cafeteria Plan is designed to take advantage of Section 125 of the Internal Revenue Code. It allows you to pay certain qualified expenses on a pre-tax basis, thereby reducing your taxable income. You can set aside a pre-established amount of money per plan year in a Healthcare Flexible Spending Account (FSA). Funds allocated to a healthcare FSA must be used during the plan year or are forfeited unless your plan contains a $500 rollover or grace period provision.
Unlimited FSA (Non HSA Compatible) The funds in the unlimited healthcare FSA can be used to pay for eligible medical expenses like deductibles, co-payments, orthodontics, glasses and contacts.

This is a general overview of your plan benefits. If the terms of this outline differ from your policy, the policy will govern. Additional plan details on covered expenses, limitations and exclusions are included in the summary plan description located on the Grapevine-Colleyville ISD Benefits Website: www.gcisdbenefits.com
FSA (Flexible Spending Account) Grapevine Colleyville allows employees to enroll in both an HSA and a FSA. If an employee enrolls in both, the FSA becomes limited and can be used for dental and vision expenses only. The HSA funds must be used for medical and prescription expenses.
MyTASC: Online Account Management TASC offers a variety of ways to manage your Flexible Spending Account! These include an online portal called MyTASC at www.tasconline.com, the MyTASC Mobile application for Kindle, Android, and Apple devices, and TXT Messaging using any SMS compatible device. A valid email is required to access each of these. If you or your employer provided your email address upon your initial enrollment, you will receive a Welcome New FlexSystem Participant email with instructions about how to set up your MyTASC account for the first time. If you did not receive the Welcome New FlexSystem Participant email with access instructions, please call Customer Care at 608-241-1900 or toll-free at 800-422-4661 to provide your email address so we may enter it in your Profile.
TXT Messaging: Account balance information may be retrieved via text message also. Once you’ve entered your mobile number in your account profile, simply send a text to 41411 with the message TASC BAL. Almost immediately, you will receive a text back with your current balance. Note: You must enter your mobile phone number in your Profile (see Email and Text Notification) to use this feature.
MyTASC: Online Account Management For a list of eligible expenses: go to www.tasconline. com, click Resources in the top menu bar, then select Eligible Expenses from the dropdown. Click the link for FlexSystem Guide to Deductible Expenses.
The TASC Card Your employer may have elected the TASC Card feature for your Plan. If so, the TASC Card request is implemented as soon as your enrollment is approved. The card is generated in your name and mailed directly to your home address, along with the Cardholder Agreement.
Profile Settings To access your profile settings, click on Profile from the Participant Manager page. Email and Text Notification services are available in MyTASC. From your Profile page, sign up to receive notifications concerning your account balances, reimbursement requests, and payments.
Account Summary Online: To view your current benefits and available funds through your MyTASC online account, click on the Account Management link from the Participant Manager page. MyTASC Mobile: For the ultimate convenience, you can access your account information from anywhere, at any time with the MyTASC Mobile app. And by using your phone or mobile device camera, you can submit Requests for Reimbursement along with any substantiation documents directly to FlexSystem. To download the MyTASC Mobile App, visit Amazon, Apple App Store, or Android Market and search for TASC. MyTASC Mobile runs on most Android-based phones and tablets, the Apple iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch, and the Amazon Kindle. MyTASC Mobile provides fingertip access to the same features available through your online account.
Log in to MyTASC (www.tasconline.com) and click TASC Card Management to view your card details, request a card for a dependent, reissue a card, request a PIN, and view allowed benefits. Your TASC Card is good for four years. So hang on to it! Even if you deplete this year’s benefits funds, you’ll be able to use the TASC Card again next year when you re-enroll in your Plan. Participants must notify FlexSystem immediately to report a lost or stolen TASC Card. To do so, (a) log in to MyTASC (www.tasconline.com), click TASC Card Management, Reissue Card, and select Lost/Stolen as the reason for reissue; or (b) submit an online MyService Request (from MyTASC, click Contact Us); or (c) call Customer Care at 608-241-1900 or tollfree 800-422-4661. A new card will arrive within 7-15 days and a $10 reissue fee will be withdrawn automatically from your FlexSystem account (pre-tax). MyBenefits The TASC Card works like a typical debit card, but is used as a credit card for eligible medical, dependent daycare, or transportation expenses, based on the funds available in your benefits account. All TASC Card transactions and services must occur within the Plan Year.
47
FSA (Flexible Spending Account) When using your TASC Card, the amount of the expense is automatically deducted from your Planâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s balance and paid directly to the authorized provider. Please remember to save your receipts as you must retain records and documents that support and validate your TASC Card transactions. In some cases, you may be required to submit receipts and/or any other related documentation. If you pay for an eligible expense without the TASC Card, simply submit a request for reimbursement via the MyTASC Mobile App or the online Request for Reimbursement Wizard in MyTASC; or mail or fax your Request for Reimbursement Form to TASC. Reimbursements are deposited in your MyCash account.
You may request reimbursement any time a qualified expense has been incurred. The service related to the expense needs only to have taken place; it need not be paid before requesting reimbursement. Submit Requests for Reimbursements only for eligible expenses (a) incurred during the applicable Plan Year, (b) incurred by eligible Plan Participants, (c) not reimbursed previously under this or any other benefits plan, and (d) not claimed as an income tax deduction. It is your responsibility to comply with these guidelines and to avoid submitting duplicate or ineligible Requests for Reimbursement.
MyTASC Mobile App
Dependent TASC Card Give your dependent the flexibility of his/her own TASC Card. The additional TASC Card offers your spouse or dependent the same convenience and advantages you enjoy! You will receive one additional card for your spouse or dependent free of charge. A $10 fee will apply for each subsequent TASC Card generated. This fee will be deducted from your FlexSystem account upon the creation of the card(s). To request a TASC Card for your spouse or dependent, log in to your MyTASC account (www.tasconline.com) and click TASC Card Management, Issue Dependent Card, and follow the prompts.
TASC Card with exclusive MyCash access If your employer has not elected the TASC Card for your benefits Plan and you have not elected direct deposit for your reimbursements, you will receive a special TASC Card with exclusive MyCash access. The card serves as a reimbursement card only. It has no access to benefits funds. Reimbursements for eligible benefits expenses will be deposited into your MyCash account. You can access your MyCash funds with the swipe of your TASC Card at any merchant that accepts MasterCard, Maestro, or NYCE cards, or at an ATM (with a PIN). Or you may visit your MyCash Manager in MyTASC to set up a transfer.
Requests for Reimbursement When paying for an eligible expense, simply swipe your TASC Card at the point-of-purchase. The TASC Card automatically pays for and substantiates expenses, eliminating the need to submit reimbursement requests. On the rare occasion you pay for an expense without your TASC Card, simply submit a Request for Reimbursement via the online MyTASC Mobile App or Request for Reimbursement Wizard in MyTASC, or fax or mail your personalized Request for Reimbursement Form with substantiation to TASC
48
The MyTASC Mobile app provides the simplest and quickest method to request a reimbursement. Simply enter the required information as prompted and attach your receipt to the Request for Reimbursement by taking a photo using your mobile device camera.
Request for Reimbursement Wizard Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy to submit reimbursement requests along with substantiation online! Follow these steps: 1. Log in to your MyTASC account and click Request for Reimbursement Wizard. 2. Enter all required information (Service Type, Service Date, Service Description, Service Provider, Amount Paid). Each expense incurred must be submitted individually. Do not combine several expenses into one total. 3. Upload receipts by attaching a scanned document (jpg, png, tif, or pdf). 4. Review your request carefully to ensure its accuracy, then click Submit. 5. View submitted requests at the bottom of the online Request for Reimbursement page.
Mail or Fax Download a personalized Request for Reimbursement form from your Participant Manager in MyTASC, complete, and submit with substantiation to TASC.
Reimbursement Disbursements Requests for Reimbursement are processed daily. Once a request is reviewed and approved, a reimbursement is issued to your MyCash account. For dependent care and nonemployer sponsored insurance premium reimbursements, the benefits account must contain sufficient funds for
FSA (Flexible Spending Account) reimbursement. If funds are insufficient in the account, reimbursement will be limited to that particular account’s balance. The outstanding balance of the request will remain as Pending until additional deposits are received, at which time an additional reimbursement will be initiated. Medical Out-ofPocket expenses will be reimbursed up to your total Plan Year election less prior reimbursements. 45 6 FlexSystem Participant Reference Guide.
MyCash All reimbursements are deposited in your MyCash account. You can access your MyCash funds in three ways: (1) swipe your TASC Card at any merchant that accepts MasterCard, (2) withdraw at an ATM using your TASC Card, or (3) transfer to a personal bank account. Click MyCash Manager in MyTASC to view and manage your MyCash funds. *Paper reimbursement checks are issued on a limited basis and only upon request. A convenience fee may be applied per check.
Direct Deposit To establish direct deposit of your MyCash funds to a personal bank account, visit MyCash Manager (in MyTASC) and click Schedule a Transfer. Enter your Bank Account information, then set up an Automatic Transfer to occur every time funds enter your MyCash account. With Automatic Transfer (direct deposit), funds are forwarded from your MyCash account to your bank within 48 to 72 hours of a complete submission. Remember to verify receipt of deposits before writing checks against expected payments. TASC is not responsible for any bank fees associated with overdraft charges.
Managing Your Requests To view your submitted Requests for Reimbursements and payments, click Account Management from the Participant Manager, then Reimbursements. Payments are in the Reimbursement Disbursements section and show the date payment was initiated, the amount, and how payment was made.
Click the Details link in the Request ID column to view additional information about the individual request, including: Date of Service, Service Type, Service Description, and Provider Name. You can also obtain this information from your mobile device using the MyTASC Mobile App.
MyCash Manager It’s easy to manage your MyCash reimbursement funds from the MyCash Manager within MyTASC. From MyCash Manager, you can view recent MyCash activity and card information, save bank account information, and transfer funds to a personal bank account. You can view MyCash activity and balance via MyTASC Mobile, too.
Change of Elections You may change your election during the Plan Year under certain circumstances only and only within 30 days of the qualifying event. For example, if you get married or divorced, have a child, or experience a change in work status, you may be able to make a change of elections. (See your employer for a complete list of circumstances and the appropriate form to use.)
Plan Year End and Carryover Typically there is a transitional period at the end of your Plan Year during which time you may be able to incur and/or submit expenses. Check with your employer for complete details pertinent to your Plan. The Plan Year is officially closed following a transitional period at the end of the Plan Year, or sooner if directed by your employer. At the end of the Plan Year, you may carry over a portion of your unused balance in your medical FSA from year to year. The maximum carryover allowed is $500; your employer may choose a lessor amount or no carryover. Any unused medical FSA funds (exceeding your employer’s carryover maximum) are forfeited to your employer. Near the end of the Plan Year, you will have the opportunity to re-enroll in your FlexSystem Plan. Please check with your employer on your specific re-enrollment procedure.
Submitted Requests for Reimbursement are shown in the Submitted RFRs section. Use the Filter by Benefit drop down box to view requests for one specific benefit or to see all requests. This summary table shows the Submitted Date, Request ID, Requested Amount, Benefit type, Veriflex Status, Paid Status, and how the request was received. You may also sort within each column by clicking on the column title. From this screen, click Upload Receipt next to a Submitted RFR to submit additional substantiation.
