Important Things to Remember for 2010-2011

1. Jacksonville ISD Cafeteria plan year is September 1, 2010 through August 31, 2011.



2. For NEW participants of the 125 Medical Reimbursement Plan you will receive 1 MGM Flex Card. NOTE: To all participants, at the end of the plan year (8/31/2011) PLEASE do not throw away your card. Your elected contribution amount for the next plan year will be updated on your existing Flex Card. You must re-enroll every year, as the flex account does not roll-over to the next plan year. For replacement of a lost/misplaced card the fee will be $10. Forms are available on-line if you prefer to mail in your claims or if the vendor does not accept the MGM Flex Card. Save your receipts for substantiation if required. For additional information refer to the benefit highlights tab/reimbursement plan.


Important: These accounts are "USE IT OR LOSE IT." Effective beginning on January 1,2011, over-the-counter medicines or drugs will no longer be eligible for reimbursement under an FSA without a doctor's prescription. Plan your contributions carefully! For additional information refer to the benefit highlights tab/reimbursement plan.
