MEDICAL AND DEPENDENT CARE FSA BENEFITS

We are now in November and in the open enrollment period for the Flexible Spending Account program (FSA) for the year 2010.  To participate in the FSA Plan during the year 2010, you must enroll before November 30, 2009.  If you are currently participating in this benefit program, and plan to participate in the year 2010, you must re-enroll.

Effective January 1, 2010, the P&A Group will be the new administrator for the MTA’s Flexible Spending Account (FSA) which includes the Medical and Dependent Care benefits.  To learn more about the P&A Group and how to save taxes on qualified medical and dependent care expenses, please attend an enrollment and information meetings have been scheduled for your benefit:

You can enroll in three ways:

• Via Phone / IVR 1-(877) 586-8281; this process will take you about 15 minutes.
