Treat your Surency Flex Benefits Card like a credit card. If it’s lost, contact Surency Flex Customer Service immediately at 866-818-8805. Or you can report it lost via your Member Account or the mobile app. Log in and select the “Profile” tab, select “Banking/Cards,” then “Report Lost/Stolen”. Click “Submit” to save your changes. Once you’ve reported your card lost or stolen, Surency Flex will send you a replacement Benefits Card.

Your employer may specify a minimum and/or a maximum contribution amount that you may contribute. During your enrollment period, the minimum and/or maximum contribution amount will be communicated by your employer.

You can only change the amount if you’ve had a qualifying life event during the Plan Year. This includes marriage, divorce, birth or adoption of a child, death of a family member or an employment status change for yourself or your spouse. 

Use your Surency Flex Benefits Card like a credit card to pay for eligible expenses at the time of service or write the Benefits Card number on the bill you receive (just like you were paying with a credit card). By providing your card as the initial form of payment, you will automatically use funds in your account and will not need to wait for reimbursement. Please note, you should keep your receipts from any Benefits Card purchases in case we need to see those for verification of the expense.

The entire amount you elected to set aside for the year is available to you on the first day of the Plan Year.

Yes, all eligible expenses are required to be validated. Most expenses paid for with your Surency Flex Benefits Card can be automatically validated without you needing to submit anything. But you should always keep your receipts and other documentation for tax purposes or in case we need to further verify your expenses.

When you are in a foreign country, you will not be able to use your Surency Flex Benefits Card. However, you can still file a claim for reimbursement if it is for an eligible medical expense. Always remember to keep your documentation and receipts (in US dollars).

You can use money set aside in your FSA on eligible medical expenses, generally those medical expenses not covered by insurance. Eligible medical expenses include diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disease or treatment for any part or function of the body. Cosmetic medical expenses (such as a facelift) and expenses that benefit your general health (such as health club fees) are not eligible. Click here to view a list of eligible medical expenses.

Surency Flex offers three ways to get repaid:

1. The easiest option is to use the Surency Flex mobile app. Choose “File a Claim,” enter the requested information and snap a photo from your phone of your receipt. The claim request and receipt will be automatically sent to Surency Flex for processing.  
2. Log in to your Member Account. Choose “File a New Claim,” upload your receipt and enter the requested information. The claim request and receipt will be sent to Surency Flex for processing.
3. Print an FSA Claim Form and mail it to Surency Flex for processing.

Remember, if you pay for eligible medical expenses with your Surency Flex Benefits Card, you will not need to file a claim.  

Your employer may specify an additional amount of time, called a "run-out period," after the last day of the Plan Year to submit claims for services you received during the Plan Year. Check the Surency Flex mobile app or log in to your Member Account to view specific details on your plan. 

Your employer may choose to allow a “grace period” or "roll-over amount” for any used funds. It’s best to check your Final Filing Date (last date you can file claims for the Plan Year) on the Surency Flex mobile app or by logging in to your Member Account. Remember, some Health Care FSAs are designated as “use-it-or-lose-it,” meaning you would not be allowed to rollover money left in your account. By checking your Final Filing Date prior to the end of your Plan Year, you can plan accordingly to use the funds if needed so you don’t lose any dollars.

Not with a Health Care FSA. The entire amount you set aside is available to you on the first day of the Plan Year.

No. According to IRS guidelines, an expense is incurred on the date the service is provided, not when you are billed or when you pay for the service.

Yes, your Health Care FSA dollars can be used to reimburse eligible out-of-pocket medical expenses (not covered by insurance or any other plan) incurred by: yourself, your spouse, your dependent children (under age 27 as of the end of the employee's taxable year), and your qualified relatives (as defined in your group’s Plan Document).

Closing of a Plan Year is a final review of the reimbursement accounts for all repayments throughout the Plan Year. 

The IRS requires employers to report and take additional action when participants have taxable items. Therefore, in order to comply with the IRS regulations, it is important that Surency assist with the closing of your Plan Year to provide necessary reporting. 

Taxable items are pending repayments from the Plan Year. Pending repayments could be a result of a debit card transaction where the participant did not provide a receipt (claim substantiation) or the transaction was determined to be an ineligible expense. 

Surency will provide you with an updated Account Balance Detail Report for the previous Plan Year and a full accounting of open, unresolved repayments (taxable items).

The updated Account Balance Detail report will be provided 185 days after the closing of the Plan Year. The Account Balance Detail Report will be generated the 2nd day of the month following the 180 day mark.

Surency closes your Plan Year 180 days after the Plan Year end date. At this time, Surency provides a detailed report for the previous Plan Year and a full accounting of open, unresolved repayments (taxable items). Repayments will be cancelled, debit cards will be all set to in-active and claim denials will be finalized.

Closing of a Plan Year is something your employer will do. It is a final review of reimbursement accounts for that Plan Year.
