Important Things to Know for 2009-2010
- Wichita Falls ISD Cafeteria Plan year runs from September 1, 2009 through August 31, 2010
- TASC Flex Systems is our Third Party Administrator (TPA) for the flex spending accounts. TASC provides a debit Mastercard for the Medical Reimbursement account that can be used at doctor’s offices and pharmacies. This card eliminates the need to file paper reimbursement request, but you must still maintain your receipts as required by the IRS.
- We will automatically pre-tax all your health insurance premiums with the exception of the disability insurance and life insurance policies. Remember once the plan year starts you can not make any changes to your coverage unless it’s due to a Change of Family Status (COFS) event. The COFS events are due to marriage, divorce, medicaid/medicare eligibility, birth/adoption of a child and loss of other coverage. A voluntary change in jobs does not qualify as a COFS event. You have 31 days from the event date to make any changes. Please login to the enrollment site and complete a COFS Request Form with supporting documents and forward to Lisa Bean – Ed. Center.
- The new dental carrier for this year is Humana dental. If you already have coverage you will automatically be covered under the new plan.
