A Health Flexible Spending Account (HCFSA) allows you to set aside pre-tax money to pay for eligible health care expenses for you and your qualified dependents. 

Examples of eligible expenses may include health plan deductibles, copayments, and coinsurance; eye exams, contact lenses, and glasses; prescription drugs; dental care, including orthodontia; and over-the-counter (OTC) products with a physician’s prescription. You do not have to enroll in a County medical plan to participate in an FSA through Prince George’s County Government.

You can contribute up to $2,750 annually to a Health Care FSA, and your entire annual election is eligible to be reimbursed prior to you having the full amount deducted from your pay. Deductions for the HCFSA reduce the gross income on your Form W-2 for federal and social security tax purposes. All receipts for expenses must be submitted by April 30th of each calendar year.
