Consistent with House of Delegates policy on health insurance, this year the association continued offering a consumer-driven health plan CDHP, as well as a traditional PPO insurance plan to employees and their dependents. Under the CDHP, a Health Care Account (HCA) was established for each participant. Preventive care and wellness visits, when provided in network, are fully covered even before the deductible is met. TMA also will continue to offer a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) which allows eligible employees to set aside a certain amount of their paycheck into either a dependent care and/or medical expense reimbursement account before paying income taxes. Reimbursement of medical expenses not covered by insurance includes deductibles, copays, prescription drugs, dental services, etc., as outlined by the Internal Revenue Service.
