Health Care Reimbursement Account Plan (HCRA) Debit Card

Effective with the 2012 Plan Year, the California State University (CSU) is pleased to announce the implementation of a flexible spending account (FSA) Debit Master Card (aka  FSA Benny Card ) through ASIFlex, the third party administrator, as an option to employees who are eligible to enroll in the Health Care Reimbursement Account (HCRA) Plan. The FSA debit card will allow HCRA participants to present the debit card as payment for eligible medical, dental, and vision expenses (restrictions apply), thus eliminating:

  1. The requirement for HCRA participants to pay for these eligible expenses out-of-pocket;
  2. The waiting period for HCRA claims to be processed and reimbursed by ASIFlex; and
  3. The requirement to submit paper claims and documentation of certain transactions.

The administrative fee is $1.00 per month and is deducted from the participant's HCRA account balance as a one-time lump sum payment. Participants can obtain the card by submitting a completed FSA Debit Card Request form to ASIFlex during the open enrollment period, or during the Plan Year (2012 or thereafter).

The FSA Debit Master Card (aka  FSA Benny Card) is issued by Evolution Benefits, Inc.
