How an FSA works
 The accounts work like this:
 When you enroll, you choose how much to contribute to the
accounts, up to the maximum allowed for the year
 Your contribution is deducted from your pay before federal and
Social Security taxes are calculated. This reduces your taxable
income and, therefore, the amount of your income tax for the year.
In some cases state income taxes are withheld.
 When you incur an eligible expense, you file a claim with the
administrator.
 You're then reimbursed for eligible expenses according to the rules
of the plan. You don't pay taxes on the payments you receive from
the account.
