Health Reimbursement Account
How does the HRA work? Sebastian contributes $1,500 annually to each employee who participates in the health insurance plan. In addition, if you cover your spouse and/or child(ren), Sebastian will contribute an additional $1,500 annually for a maximum of $3,000 annually. These funds remain with Sebastian until they are actually claimed for reimbursement. Employees will receive a debit card to pay for medical plan expenses. If a provider does not accept a debit card, the user will pay the cost for the incurred expense at the time of service and then claim reimbursement from the plan administrator. This reimbursement is not subject to income tax. Even employees that utilize the debit card may have to submit a claim form along with the Explanation of Benefits from BlueCross BlueShield of Florida to validate expenses. All claims must be filed within 90 days after the end of the plan year in order to claim reimbursement. Any unclaimed funds at the end of the year will remain with Sebastian. Employees that participate in the employee funded flexible spending account (FSA) will utilize those funds prior to utilizing the HRA.
