Health Savings Accounts (HSAs)

Investments in securities, through UMB HSA Saver are:Not FDIC-Insured · May Lose Value · No Bank Guarantee

A Health Savings Account (HSA) is a tax-free account used to pay for out-of-pocket medical expenses such as the deductible, coinsurance, and other expenses not covered by the health plan. To contribute to an HSA, individuals must be enrolled in an HSA-compatible health plan. The HSA-compatible health plan provides comprehensive coverage once the minimum deductible is reached.

What is a Health Savings Account?

What you need to know about an HSA:YOU OWN THE ACCOUNT. As the owner of the account, you determine when you want to spend the funds.YOU NEVER LOSE THE FUNDS. Once funds have been deposited into your account, they are yours to keep. There is no ‘use-or-lose’ provision. You even keep the funds if your employment changes.TAX-FREE SAVINGS FOR MEDICAL EXPENSES. An HSA is the only account to provide a triple-tax benefit. Funds are deposited into the HSA tax-free, funds grow tax-deferred and remain tax-free when used for eligible medical expenses. This saves you 30-40% on every dollar you contribute to the HSA.FUNDS GROW. Funds in an HSA earn interest or can be invested.Note: States can choose to follow the federal tax-treatment guidelines for HSAs or establish their own; some states tax HSA contributions. If you have questions about your tax implications, consult your tax advisor. HSA funds used to pay for non-qualified medical expenses are subject to income taxes on the amount and a possible additional 20% penalty, if you’re under age 65.

Who is eligible for an HSA? To contribute to an HSA, you must meet the following criteria:1. You must be enrolled in an HSA-compatible health plan.

(Your employer can provide more information on the health plan(s) that meet the requirements for an HSA.)

2. You may not be enrolled in any other health plan that is not a qualified HSA-compatible plan. (If you or your spouse enrolls in a Medical FSA or HRA, you may not be eligible for an HSA unless the FSA or HRA is limited to dental and vision expenses.)

3. You cannot be enrolled in Medicare.4. You cannot be claimed as a dependent on another person’s taxes.

How much can I contribute? The contribution limits for an HSA are determined each year by the IRS. Contributions are based on the type of health plan coverage you are enrolled in (e.g. single or family coverage). Contributions from you and your employer cannot exceed these limits. Please visit www.BenefitResource.com for the current limits.

When can HSA funds be used? HSA funds can be used for eligible medical expenses provided after the HSA has been established. Funds will carry over from year to year if not used. An HSA is a cash balance account. If you incur an expense before HSA funds have been deposited, you may need to pay for the expense with other funds and reimburse yourself once the funds become available. If at some point you are no longer covered by an HSA-compatible health plan, you will no longer be eligible to contribute to the HSA but can continue to use the funds in the HSA for eligible medical expenses.

What are eligible medical expenses? Eligible medical expenses are determined by the IRS. In addition to typical out-of-pocket medical expenses covered by your health plan, the HSA can be used for expenses such as: dental, vision, chiropractic services, prescription drugs and certain over-the-counter medical items.

Whose expenses are eligible? HSA funds can be used to pay for eligible medical expenses for you, your spouse and eligible dependents (that you may claim on your tax return).

What is an HSA-compatible health plan? The HSA must by offered with an HSA-compatible health plan (often called a high deductible health plan). The plan must meet certain minimum deductible and maximum out-of-pocket requirements set by the IRS. An HSA-compatible health plan provides comprehensive coverage for medical and prescription costs once the deductible and maximum out-of-pocket are met for the plan year. Your health plan will also offer certain preventive care services before meeting the deductible. Your employer will be able to tell you which plan(s) will make you eligible for an HSA.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT USING YOUR

BENIVERSAL CARD FOR HSA

What is a Beniversal® Card?

The Beniversal® Prepaid Mastercard

® allows you to use funds from your Health Savings Account (HSA) to pay for eligible medical

expenses at the point-of-sale. When can I start using my Beniversal Card?

Sign your card as soon as you receive it. Use your Beniversal Card:

On or after the effective date your HSA has been established. When you have funds available in your HSA.

Read the sticker on the card for instructions on activating your card. What dollar amount is available on my Beniversal Card?

The amount available for your HSA = the total contributions posted to your account minus any prior payments and withdrawals. Where can I use my Beniversal Card? Your card will only work at approved merchants. Approved merchants include medical providers such as:

• Chiropractors • Doctors • Dentists

• Hospitals • Medical labs • Medical supply stores

• Orthodontists • Podiatrists • Vision centers

Will my card work at pharmacies and department stores that sell eligible medical items?

Your card will work at pharmacies and department stores that sell eligible medical items. The Beniversal Card will not work at merchants like gas stations and restaurants. When you pay for your purchase:

Have the sales clerk total your eligible medical items separately. Use your Beniversal Card to pay for the purchase. Save your receipts as documentation of your purchase.

What do I need to know about making purchases with my Beniversal Card?

1. Use your card to pay for medical expenses that are eligible under your HSA as defined by the IRS in Section 213(d). 2. Do not use your card for ineligible expenses, such as teeth whitening, health club memberships or cosmetic procedures. 3. Expenses may be for you, your spouse or your eligible dependent(s) as identified on your tax return. 4. Do not use your card to pay for expenses which have been or will be reimbursed by another source. 5. A sample list of eligible expenses is available at www.BenefitResource.com. Can I use my card to purchase over-the-counter (OTC) items? Your HSA can be used for eligible over-the-counter medical items which can be purchased with your Beniversal Card (see examples in the HSA OTC Chart at www.BenefitResource.com). Note: As of January 1, 2011, you need a prescription to purchase eligible over-the-counter drugs and medicines. What if I order my prescription through an online or mail order program?

When payment information is required for a mail order or online prescription service, you simply provide your Beniversal Card number and related account details. If asked, should I select “Debit” or “Credit”?

You have the option to choose “Debit” or “Credit.” If you choose “Credit”, you will be asked to sign for the purchase. If you choose “Debit,” you will be prompted to provide a PIN. To request a PIN, call (855) 247-0198. Why should I save my receipts?

Your HSA is regulated by the IRS. You are responsible for ensuring that funds are used for eligible expenses at all times and would be required to provide documentation of expenses if audited. What happens if I cannot provide documentation showing that card expenses were for eligible medical services?

IRS regulations require you to have documentation for the total amounts withdrawn in a given tax year. If you do not have documentation for eligible expenses that you used your card for, you may use other eligible expenses as documentation. If you are audited by the IRS and cannot provide documentation of eligible expenses, you will be required to pay taxes and any penalties on all withdrawn amounts that did not have supporting documentation.

To learn more about the Beniversal Card and to review account activity, visit the Benefit Resource website at www.BenefitResource.com.

The Beniversal Card is issued by The Bancorp Bank pursuant to license by Mastercard International Incorporated. Mastercard is a registered trademark of Mastercard International Incorporated.

Card accepted at qualified merchants accepting Debit Mastercard. See Cardholder Terms and Conditions for the specific details and terms of use of the Card.

HSA Custodial Services are provided by another financial institution. A separate HSA Custodial Agreement will govern the HSA Custodial Account.

Rev. 09/2017 -2- HSA 600-12

Will Benefit Resource, Inc. or my employer ever ask me to provide supporting documentation for purchases made with my Beniversal Card for HSA?

No. Your HSA is an individually-owned account. You are responsible for verifying eligible expenses and maintaining proper documentation of all expenses. Any ineligible expenses must be reported by you when filing your tax return. Can I use my card to pay for services that were provided prior to participating in the HSA?

No, IRS regulations do not allow this. The date of service determines whether the expense is eligible, not the date of payment. A service is only eligible if it is provided after you have established your HSA. What if a provider requires me to pay in full at the point-of-sale, even if part of the expense will be paid from another source?

Do not use your Beniversal Card if any part of the expense will be reimbursed from another source (such as your health insurance carrier). Pay the required amount with some other means and then reimburse yourself from your HSA for the adjusted expense amount. You can reimburse yourself by initiating an online transfer from the HSA to a personal account when you access your HSA Online Account. What are some reasons my Beniversal Card might not work at the point-of-sale?

Your balance is less than the full expense. You attempted to use your card at a non-qualified merchant. The merchant is not registered in an eligible network. The merchant is having technical problems. The home address you gave the merchant did not match the address on file with your card. What should I do if I cannot use my Beniversal Card at the point-of-sale?

If you are required to pay at the time of service, use another form of payment and reimburse yourself for the expense by initiating an online transfer from the HSA to a personal account when you access your HSA Online Account. How do I know my account balance?

To view your HSA balance, as well as card transaction detail, go to www.BenefitResource.com or log into the BRiMobile app. Checking your account balance before using the card will help ensure you have sufficient funds to cover the entire amount of your eligible purchase. What if an expense is more than the amount remaining in my account? If the merchant can do a split transaction, tell the clerk you wish to use the Beniversal Card for the exact amount left in your account and

then pay for the remaining amount separately. If the merchant cannot do a split transaction, you will need to use another form of payment. You can reimburse yourself immediately up

to your account balance or wait until you have sufficient funds in your account and reimburse yourself for the entire amount. Do I need a new Beniversal Card each year?

No. As long as you continue to participate in your employer-sponsored HSA, you can continue using your card through the expiration date on the card. What happens if I terminate employment?

The account will remain yours and you will still be able to withdraw funds for eligible medical expenses. The trustee/custodian will assume administration of your account and will contact you directly regarding any changes that may affect

your account. Where do I go for answers to my questions?

Information is available 24/7 at www.BenefitResource.com. The Benefit Resource Participant Services Department is available by calling (800) 473-9595, Monday - Friday, 8am - 8pm (Eastern

Time). What if I lose my card?

To minimize unauthorized use of your card, be sure to report a lost card immediately by calling Benefit Resource at (800) 473-9595. You can request replacement cards at the same number. There is a fee associated with card replacement. Fee details are available in your Cardholder Agreement. A third party may opt to pay this fee on your behalf. Check with your plan administrator.

Beniversal® Card Frequently Asked Questions

General Beniversal® Prepaid Mastercard® FAQs

What is a Beniversal Card? The Beniversal® Prepaid Mastercard® is a prepaid card that is linked to the employer benefit plans associated with your card. Your Beniversal Card may allow you to pay for eligible expenses from your Medical or Limited Medical Flexible Spending Account (FSA), Health Reimbursement Account (HRA) or Limited HRA, Health Savings Account (HSA) and/or Commuter Benefit Plan (CBP) Account. Please see your Plan Highlights/Specifications to see what accounts are available on your card.

When can I start using my Beniversal Card? Before using your card, you must activate and sign the card; following the instructions received with your card.

For FSA, HRA and CBP: wait to use the card on or after your effective date in the plan. For HSA: wait to use the card after your HSA has been established.

What dollar amount is available on my Beniversal Card after I activate it? For an FSA, the amount available = the total amount elected for the current plan year minus any prior payments and reimbursements. For an HRA, the amount available = the total funds posted to your current plan year account minus any prior payments and reimbursements. For a CBP Account, the amount available = the total amounts posted to your account(s) minus any prior payments and reimbursements. For an HSA, the amount available = the total contributions posted to your account minus any prior payments and withdrawals.

What type of expenses can I pay for with the Beniversal Card? Always refer to your plan’s documentation to see what expenses are allowed under your plan. Do not use your card for ineligible expenses. For an FSA, HRA and/or HSA, expenses must be for eligible medical services/items. FSA and HRA expenses may be for you, your spouse or your eligible dependent(s), unless

otherwise restricted by your plan. HSA expenses may be for you, your spouse or your eligible dependent(s) as identified on your tax return. For a CBP Account, eligible workplace commuting expenses may include mass transit and/or parking. Effective January 1, 2016, workplace mass transit expenses must be paid

for with the Beniversal Card.

If asked, should I select “Debit” or “Credit”? Select CREDIT to sign for the purchase or DEBIT to enter a PIN. To request a PIN, call (855) 247-0198. There is no ATM or cash access associated with this card.

Can I use the card to pay for a service before it is provided? No. IRS regulations require that a service be provided before paying for it with medical account funds. The IRS allows one exception for medical account funds: If orthodontia expenses are eligible under your plan, payments can be based either on date of service or payment due date.

What if my card does not work at the point-of-sale? For an FSA or HRA, you may pay with another form of payment and submit a claim to Benefit Resource, Inc. (BRI) for reimbursement.

Log into the Benefit Resource website, www.BenefitResource.com, go to the Submit Claims/Receipts section. Complete your claim form, then either upload it to Benefit Resource or print it so you can fax or mail it to Benefit Resource.

Claims can also be submitted through the BRiMobile app available for iPhone, iPad and Android devices. For an HSA, you can initiate an online transfer from the HSA to a personal account when you access your HSA Online Account at www.BenefitResource.com. For CBP, the options will vary based on the type of expense:

Mass Transit expenses must be paid with the card and are not eligible for claim reimbursement. If you are not able to use your card one month, the funds will roll to the next month and there is no loss of benefit.

Vanpooling expenses can be paid with another form of payment and a claim can be submitted using a paper claim form (available from the BRI website). You can fax or mail it to BRI along with a receipt or other documentation verifying the eligibility of the expense.

Parking expenses can be paid with another form of payment and a claim can be submitted. Parking claims can be submitted online at www.BenefitResource.com, through the BRiMobile app or by completing a paper claim form and submitting it by fax or mail.

What are some reasons my Beniversal Card might not work at the point-of-sale? Your card has not been activated. Your account balance is less than the full expense. You attempted to purchase items that are not eligible under your plan. You attempted to use your card at a non-qualified merchant. The merchant is not registered in an eligible network. The merchant is having technical problems. The address you gave the merchant does not match the address on file with your card.

What if an expense is more than the amount remaining in my account? If the merchant can do a split transaction, tell the clerk you wish to use the Beniversal Card for the exact amount left in your account. Pay for the remaining amount with another

form of payment and for FSA, HRA, HSA and eligible parking and vanpooling expenses, you can request reimbursement from the applicable account . If the merchant cannot do a split transaction, you will need to use another form of payment. For FSA, HRA, HSA and eligible parking and vanpooling expenses, you can request

reimbursement from the applicable account.

Beniversal Card FSA/HRA/HSA FAQs

Where can I use my Beniversal Card for eligible medical expenses? Your card will work at Qualified Merchants who accept Debit Mastercard. Qualified Merchants include medical providers such as: chiropractors, doctors, dentists, hospitals, medical labs, medical supply stores, orthodontists, podiatrists, vision centers, IIAS merchants and 90% merchants.

What is an “IIAS” merchant? An IIAS merchant has an Inventory Information Approval System (IIAS) that automatically identifies eligible medical expenses. Here’s how it works: Have the sales clerk total your entire purchase. Use your Beniversal Card first, which will automatically pay for the eligible medical items. Use another form of payment for the remaining amount.

A list of IIAS merchants is available at www.BenefitResource.com. For an FSA/HRA, you usually will not need to submit a receipt to verify the eligibility of a purchase made at an IIAS merchant, but save your receipt just in case. For an HSA, you should always save your receipts in case there is an IRS audit.

What is a 90% merchant? A 90% merchant has registered with a national organization, certifying that 90% or more of its revenue is from the sale of el igible medical items. (If a merchant has more than one

location, each location must be registered.) A list of 90% merchants is available at www.BenefitResource.com. For an FSA/HRA, you usually will need to submit a receipt for a purchase made at a 90% merchant, so save your receipt. For an HSA, you should always save your receipts in case there is an IRS audit.

What if a provider requires me to pay in full at the point-of-sale for a medical expense, even if part of the expense will be paid from another source? Do not use your Beniversal Card if any part of the expense will be reimbursed from another source (such as your health insurance carrier). Pay the required amount with some other means and request reimbursement from the applicable account.

Can I use my card to purchase over-the-counter (OTC) items? If your Medical FSA is on the Beniversal Card, eligible OTC medical items can be purchased with your card. For an HSA, you can use your card to purchase eligible OTC medical items. For an HRA, check your plan’s documentation to see if OTC expenses are eligible. Examples of OTC items are available at www.BenefitResource.com.

What should I do with my receipts when I use the card for FSA or HRA medical services/items? SAVE YOUR RECEIPTS! In fact, save all documentation related to medical expenses paid with your Beniversal Card. The documentation must include provider name, type of

service, date of service and cost of service. (For prescription drugs, documentation must include the drug name.) IRS regulations require all FSA/HRA transactions to be verified for eligibility. The technology built into your card provides a way to verify many card transactions automatically. When a card transaction cannot be verified automatically, the IRS requires that you submit followup documentation. Benefit Resource will contact you when this is necessary. This

often happens if you use the card for the following: Dental and vision expenses Expenses that are not co-payments under your employer-sponsored health insurance plan Expenses at a 90% merchant

What if I lose my FSA or HRA receipts? See if your provider or insurance company can provide copies for you. If you cannot provide the document(s) requested by Benefit Resource or if an expense is ineligible: You may repay the expense or provide a substitute claim to offset it.

If you take no action: Your FSA and/or HRA may be suspended. Your eligibility to participate in the plan may be suspended. The amount of the expense may be deducted from your wages on an after-tax basis.

Card purchases not verified as an eligible expense will be reported as taxable income, per IRS regulations.

What should I do with my receipts when I use the card for HSA medical services/items? Save them. You are responsible for ensuring that funds are used for eligible expenses at all times and would be required to provide documentation of expenses if audited by the IRS.

When a plan year ends, will funds from that plan year still be on my card? For an FSA or HRA, see your Plan Highlights to determine the time frame funds remain available after the end of the plan year and how you can access these funds. For an HSA, balances will automatically rollover from one year to the next.
