Health Care and Dental Plan

Expenses incurred in a calendar year must be claimed by January 31 of the second year following the year the expense was incurred.  In other words, you have 13 months after the end of the year in which an expense is incurred to submit any outstanding claims.

Health Care Spending Account (HCSA) and Wellness Spending Account (WSA) Claims

All claims must be received by the insurance provider no later than March 31 of the year following the year in which the expenses were incurred. 

Forfeitures

Unused credits in a Health Care Spending Account and Wellness Spending Account (taxable) will be carried forward and available the following calendar year. At the end of the second calendar year any credits remaining from the previous year will be forfeited. In November, those who have forfeited any HCSA/WSA credits may wish to re-evaluate credit allocations for the following year.

To see the current balance in your Health Care Spending Account and/or your Wellness Spending Account, login to the Manulife Plan Member website.  Select "My Benefits", then the link that says HCSA Balance/WSA Balance. For the HCSA, you will see amount deposited in current year, claims paid, and your current balance. For your WSA you will see your cumulative balance. To see your claims history details for both the HCSA and WSA – see ‘Claims History’ then choose either HCSA or WSA.

to see the current balance in your Professional Expense Reimbursement Account.

If your spouse has coverage through their employer or another retiree program, a member may be able to receive up to 100% reimbursement for medical and dental expenses by submitting claims to both plans using an industry-wide procedure called co-ordination of benefits.

To co-ordinate benefits, first enroll your spouse and children as dependents in the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±Ô¤²â benefits program. Your spouse must also enroll you and any children in their plan.

Further information on co-ordination of benefits may be found on the web site.
