Pre-Tax Savings Accounts
Want to save money while paying for healthcare and dependent care expenses? Ingram's Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) and Health Savings Account (HSA) allow you to set aside pre-tax money for eligible expenses. This reduces the amount you'll pay in taxes.
Flexible Spending Accounts
Healthcare FSA
What is it for?
- You
- Your spouse and qualifying child(ren) even if they are not covered by Ingram's health plan
- Your qualifying relative; special IRS rules may allow a family member to be eligible for this plan, even if he or she does not qualify as a dependent on your tax return
- Domestic partners may not be eligible dependents
Who's eligible?
- You
- Your spouse and qualifying child(ren) even if they are not covered by Ingram's health plan

How much can I contribute?
Visit IRS.gov to view the most recently updated amounts for the plan year.
Do Healthcare FSA funds expire?
Money in this account is "use it or lose it." You will lose any money left over at the end of the plan year. Make sure you don't contribute more than you need.
How do I pay for expenses?
You'll receive a debit card from MyChoice. You can use it at the time of service, or you can pay out of pocket and reimburse yourself later from your FSA.
Dependent Care FSA
What is it for?
Save pre-tax dollars to pay for eligible dependent care expenses like daycare or eldercare, so you and/or your spouse can work, look for work, or attend school full time.
Who is eligible for coverage?
Eligible dependents include your child(ren) under the age of 13, your disabled spouse, or any disabled dependent of any age who lives with you at least eight hours a day.

Health Savings Account (HSA)
What is it for?
An HSA is a tax-advantaged, personal bank account that you keep even if you change jobs or retire. You can set aside pre-tax money to pay for eligible healthcare expenses in the current year or save it to use in the future. You can even invest your balance once it exceeds $1,000. View a complete list of eligible expenses.
What are the tax advantages of using an HSA?
- Your HSA contributions are made with pre-tax dollars.
- When you spend your HSA dollars on eligible expenses, they are tax-free.
- HSA funds can earn interest tax-free.
Who is eligible?
If you choose the Choice + HSA Plan or the Value + HSA Plan, you can use an HSA.
There are IRS rules about who can have an HSA. You can't:
- Be enrolled in a second medical plan that is not a High-Deductible Health Plan.
- Be enrolled in Medicare, Medicaid, or TRICARE.
- Be claimed as a dependent on someone else's federal tax return.
- Have a Healthcare FSA while you are actively contributing to an HSA.
How much can I contribute? How much does Ingram contribute?
If you're enrolled in the Choice + HSA Plan, Ingram contributes $500 for individual coverage and $1,000 for family coverage. Ingram does not contribute for the Value + HSA Plan.
The IRS limits the amount you can contribute each year, including company contributions. For 2026, the limits are:
- Single: $4,400
- Family: $8,750
- Age 55 or older: Additional catch-up contribution of $1,000
You can change or stop your HSA contributions at any time throughout the year.
