Filing Claims
Please use this Medical/Dependent Care Expenses Claim Form. Make sure all of your receipts contain the following information:
- Itemized billing from provider
- Name of provider or organization providing day care service
- Tax ID number or social security number of care provider
- Name of person for whom services are being provided
- Date of services
- Cost of services
If any of this information is missing, EBS must request additional details
before processing your claim. IRS guidelines require us to have this
information for all claims to avoid penalties in the event the plan is audited.
Dependent Care Claims
As an alternative to filing a claim for dependent care each month, for your convenience
we have a Dependent Care Assistance Plan Bill
from Provider.
Rather than filing claims each month, simply have your provider
complete and sign this form then submit it once each year. EBS then
automatically sends out your day care reimbursement each time we receive
contribution information for you. This will greatly speed up the reimbursement
process.
| Deadline for filing claims |
Expenses submitted for July 1, 2007 through June 30, 2008 reliability period MUST BE
POSTMARKED by September 30, 2008 to be considered a valid claim. |
Direct Deposit
To further hasten reimbursement, just complete the Flex
Reimbursement Direct Deposit Authorization for your checking account then send it in
with your next claim.
Once your claim is processed, the funds are generally deposited into your bank account
within 24-48 hours. You don't have to wait for your check to arrive to have the funds available to you.
