"Flexible Spending" or"Cafeteria" Plans
Check with your employer or Human Resource department to find out if your organization offers Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA), Health Savings Accounts (HSA) or cafeteria plans. These special programs set aside pre-tax dollars from your paycheck for medical expenses not covered by insurance. Since LASIK is a medical procedure, it is considered for reimbursement.
How it Works
Money set aside in an FSA escapes both federal and state income tax and also social security tax. By law, the maximum amount you can contribute to an FSA is $5,000, but some companies limit contributions to $2,000 or $3,000.
FSA's/HSA's are not just a savings account. They save you money by decreasing the amount of taxes you pay. For instance, if you make $35,000 per year and pay 16% Federal Tax; 6% State Tax, and 7.65% FICA Tax, your total payroll taxes would be $10,377. However, if you contribute $3,000 to your FSA you would pay the same percent of taxes on only $32,000 per year. This would give you net savings of approximately $900. The higher your tax bracket, the more you save.
If you have an FSA but do not have adequate funds available to cover surgery this year, know that the IRS has approved a limited carryover of FSA balances for up to two months and 15 days after the end of the account year. That means, for example, you could use 2010 allocated dollars up to March 15, 2011.
Contact your HR department for more details regarding your company's guidelines and open enrollment periods. Flexible spending accounts can make laser vision correction even more affordable.
