In addition, . the Member recognizes that certain medical or health care expenses are not fully covered by your health benefit program. To assist employees with these expenses, we are offering you the opportunity to participate in the Member Dependent Care and Umeimbursed Health Care Expense Flexible Spending Account Plans. These Plans are part of the Member Section 125 Cafeteria Plan. These spending account plans allow you to pay for dependent care and health care expenses that are not or cannot be reimbursed by your health benefit program, such as the monthly contributions, deductibles and the benefit percentage that is your responsibility, with before-tax dollars. This plan offers you the opportunity to make contributions to flexible spending accounts to cover these expenses with before- tax moneys.
