Allied FSA Debit Card
WHAT IS AN FSA?
An FSA is a special account where an employee sets aside pre-tax money, via payroll deduction, to
pay for certain out-of-pocket costs. There are two types of FSAs:
Healthcare FSA – Covers out-of-pocket healthcare expenses, such as copayments, deductibles,
some drugs, and more.
Dependent Care FSA – Covers costs as sociated with caring for children, a disabled spouse, elderly
parents or other dependents while working or attending school full-time.
HOW IT WORKS
As covered expenses are incurred, the employee conveniently
uses an Allied Flex Card to automatically deduct funds from
their Flex account. No more using cash for co-pays or
submitting claim forms and waiting for reimbursement. Plus,
easy-to-use tools at AlliedBenefit.com allow employees to
track their Allied Flex account expenses, balances, and claims
from anywhere, anytime.
HOW ALLIED CAN HELP
FSAs require proper administration, and the IRS penalties for
noncompliance exist. Allied handles all aspects of
administration to not only meet your compliance obligations
but to also keep employees happy.
