Flexible Spending Accounts: Use It or Lose It	Print Issue
September 11, 2012, Volume 59, No. 03

Still have money in your Health Care or Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account? Remember to “use it or lose it”.

You have until September 15 to incur eligible expenses for the 2011–2012 plan year, and all claims must be submitted by September 30. If you don’t use the full balance in your account each plan year, you lose that unused money.

For details on the Flexible Spending Accounts, including listings of eligible expenses and instructions on how to file a claim, visit the HR website at www.hr.upenn.edu/Benefits/PreTax/Default.aspx or call the Penn Benefits Center at 1-888-PENNBEN (1-888-736-6236), Monday through Friday, 8 a.m.–6 p.m.
