| A Flexi
Account (Section 125) Administration Plan
is an employer-sponsored benefit program that enables
employees to choose the benefits they want and to
pay for those benefits with pre-tax dollars.
Flexi Account (Section
125) Administration Plan are also known as Cafeteria
Plans, 125 Plans, FSA Plans and Flexi Plans.
The most common reason given by employers
for offering a cafeteria plan is to lesser the burden
of escalating health care plan costs and provide a
day care benefit to their employees.
Under Section 125 of the IRS code,
an employee is allowed to pay for his/her group health
premiums, other qualified insurance premiums, un-reimbursed
medical costs (prescriptions and co-pays), child and
dependent care costs and more...all with tax-free
dollars through a cafeteria plan. |
