Anthem Spending Accounts - Healthcare and limited-purpose FSAs

What are the benefits of the Anthem FSA?

Simple administration

One benefits administrator means less work, lower costs, and greater security.

Easy spending

Claims are integrated to make recordkeeping and reimbursement easier.

Satisfied employees

They'll appreciate a convenient experience with one debit card, one website, one app, and one customer service department.

Bundled savings

When bundled with our health plans, an FSA offers discounted rates.

How it works

A healthcare FSA and limited-purpose FSA are available to employees, spouses, and eligible dependents. They can choose to spend the total amount for the year on day one of their plan, up to the maximum set by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Learn more about these two types of FSAs.

Healthcare FSA

Pairs with all our medical product offerings, excluding our health savings account.
Helps pay for various qualified healthcare expenses, such as doctor's office visits and prescription drugs.
Includes over-the-counter drugs that are not prescribed by a doctor and menstrual care products under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act.
Covers things like expected health-related expenses, as well as unexpected ones, such as emergency room visits and root canals.
All healthcare expenses can be tied to the same debit card.

Limited-purpose FSA

Works with our health savings account.
Helps pay for qualified vision or dental care expenses only.
Includes “luxury” items, such as designer prescription sunglasses or teeth straightening.

Healthcare and limited-purpose flexible spending accounts

No matter what type of medical plan you offer your employees, there is an Anthem flexible spending account (FSA) to pair with it.
