YOUR HRAThe Health Reimbursement Account, also known as the HRA, is an employer sponsored ac-count that is funded entirely by your employer. The HRA can be used to reimburse a portion of your out-of-pocket medical expenses for you and your eligible family members. Claims processing works similar to the Healthcare FSA in that you must provide documentation to substantiate your claims. Also if you enroll in the HRA and would like to make pretax contribu-tions, you may also enroll in the Healthcare FSA.

Who is eligible for the HRA?

Members who enroll in a High Deductible Health Plan are eligible to enroll in the HRA. Some members are only eligible for an HRA because of one the following factors apply to your situ-ation. - You are enrolled in any part of Medicare - You are enrolled in Tricare -YouarecoveredbyanotherplanthatisnotconsideredaQualifiedHighDeductible Health Plan - You are claimed as a dependent under your parent’s taxes

If you enroll in Plans J or Q, you will need to enroll in the HRA in order to have access to any HealthQuest dollars you have earned.

HRA Funding

Employer contributions made by the State Employee Health Plan will be made in the same frequencyastheHSA,whichwillbequarterlyonthefirstpaycheckofJanuary,April,July,and October. Non-State employer groups will receive their contributions monthly.

The IRS requires participants to keep all receipts for HRA expenses for seven years in the event of a tax audit. If there is a discrepancy or unusual transaction amount, NueSynergy is required by the IRS to verify the transaction. If a transaction cannot be electronically substantiated a participant will be sent a notification via email to submit a third-party receipt showing the date of service, description or type of treatment and the amount owed.

All plan communication pertaining to your account activity is provided solely via email and at www.MyKansasCDH.com. It is important to notify NueSynergy if you change your email address.

Recurring HRA debit card expenses for the exact amount at the same provider can be set up as a recurring transaction. When you submit your initial documentation, please include a note stating the transaction will be a recurring expense. This will prevent the need for additional documentation on future purchases of the same item purchased at the same provider.

Does the participant always have to use the HRA debit card for claim reimbursement?No. There will be times when a merchant does not accept the HRA debit card. This does not mean that the expense is not eligible. Participants will need to pay for the expense from their personal funds and then submit a claim for reimbursement. Claim forms can be found at www.MyKansasCDH.com.

COMMON FAQs (cont’d)

4601 College Blvd. Suite 280 • Leawood, KS 66211 • 855.750.9440 • www.MyKansasCDH.com

Q: Who is eligible to elect to the HRA?A: Any employee enrolled in Plan C or N may elect to have an HRA. Employees who are not eligible to contribute to a Health Savings Account (HSA) because of one of the following reasons will need to elect the HRA option:

• Medicare enrollment • TRICARE enrollment • Concurrent enrollment in another health plan not considered a High Deductible Health Plan • You are eligible to be claimed as a dependent under your parent’s tax return • You have dependent children between ages 23-26 (member may choose to enroll in either the HSA or an HRA in this situation)

Employees selecting Plans J or Q will also have an HRA for any HealthQuest Reward dollars they earn through completing eligible HealthQuest activities.

Q: What are the tax advantages and benefits of an HRA?A: Reimbursements made from your employer through the HRA are not considered part of your income and are not taxed. Contributions made to your HRA are 100 percent employer-funded, free of federal, state and FICA taxes. The distributions for medical expenses are also tax free. An HRA plan may save you money through lower premiums and tax-free medical reimbursements.

Q: What types of eligible expenses can I use my HRA for? A: The HRA can reimburse for eligible medical expenses just like with the HSA and FSA. Some examples of medical expenses that you can spend your HRA funds for include: • Deductibles and Coinsurance • Dental, Drug and Vision expenses • Over the Counter medications, such as aspirin, cold medicines, antacids and cough supple ments if you have a prescription from your doctor

Q: What happens to my HRA if I terminate employment?A: The HRA is not portable and should you terminate coverage with the SEHP prior to the end of the planyear,youwillhavesixty(60)daysfromyourlastdateonSEHPcoveragetofileanyclaimsincurred while you were covered that plan year.

Q: Do I still need to keep my receipts and documentation for prescriptions and office visits, plus the Explanation of Benefits that are sent to me?A: Yes. You should keep your original receipts and documentation for prescriptions and health-relat-ed expenses for all transactions (including payment card transactions), so you’ll have them if needed to verify a claim. The IRS requires that all transactions be validated, including the payment card transactions.
