Flexible Spending Accounts

BVSD offers you the benefit of using pre-tax dollars to pay eligible health care expenses that are not reimbursed by the district’s health/dental plans. Read about pre-tax premiums also, which affect take-home dollars. Using pre-tax gross earnings to pay for eligible expenses increases your take-home pay.

Eligible health care expenses: laser eye surgery, contact lens or prescription eyeglasses, contact solution, prescription sunglasses, co-payments, orthodontia, hearing aid batteries, co-insurance, some forms of alternative medicine, some health care not covered or partially covered by insurance, some forms of vitamins, etc. for all family members, even if they are not on your coverage through the district. (Premium payments for other insurance carriers are not an eligible expense.)
