Flexible Spending Arrangements (FSAs) and Dependent Care Assistance Program (DCAP)

2026 information | 2025 information

Navia Benefit Solutions administers the Flexible Spending Arrangement (FSA), Limited Purpose FSA, and Dependent Care Assistance Program (DCAP) for the SEBB Program.

FSA

The FSA is a personal expense account allowing you to set aside a portion of your salary pretax to pay for qualified health care expenses. Learn about FSAs.

Key features

• Elect up to $3,300 to help pay for eligible expenses January 1 through December 31, 2026.
• Access your full annual election amount at the start of the year.
• Thousands of medical, dental, and vision expenses are eligible under this benefit.
• Pay for your eligible dependents' health care expenses using this benefit, even if they are not enrolled on your PEBB plan.
• Debit card option is available to pay for expenses directly, in addition to claim reimbursement.
• Carry over unspent funds—up to $660—into the next year (2027).

Note: If the IRS announces an additional increase in the maximum contribution limit before the end of open enrollment, the SEBB Program will adopt those changes for 2026.
