What is 125 Flexible Spending Program?

125 Flexible Spending Program is an employee benefits program that allows companies to take advantage of Section 125 of the IRS Code to pay for certain medical and dependent care expenses like group insurance premiums, unreimbursed medical costs, and dependent care with non-taxable dollars.

How 125 Flexible Spending Program Saves Money

Employees voluntarily set aside money for medical care and dependent care expenses BEFORE payroll taxes are calculated. Those funds aren’t subject to federal, state or FICA taxes—which saves money. On average, employees save about $30 for every $100 they earn.

This program covers a generous list of eligible expenses, including:

  • Prescription Drugs

  • Copays and Deductibles

  • Vision & Dental

  • Chiropractic Care

  • Child/Dependent Care

  • In-Home Dependent Care
