  • View a list of the company’s current carriers, with website links;
  • Contact their Paychex Insurance Agency account manager by phone or e-mail with one touch;
  • Access a full list of FSA-enrolled employees and view their FSA account balance, elections, and reimbursement activity;
  • View total account balances for company FSA accounts;
  • Receive alerts when an employee is not on track to make their total FSA election; and
  • Customize the dashboard that connects them to the app’s various features and their preferred data.

 

 

In addition, the app now allows employees to review individual benefit information, such as coverage elections and types, premium amounts, links to carrier information, access to a member guide, and a one-click link to the BalanceCare phone line (when applicable).
