The Heartland Board of Directors approved a change to the Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA) that will be effective immediately. The change allows you to submit claims for pre-paid orthodontia services before the services are provided, but only to the extent that the payments have been made in advance of the orthodontia services in order to receive the services.
In some cases, orthodontists offer a discount if services are paid for in advance. You may now take advantage of these discounts by submitting proof of payment to Kabel Business Services, the company that administers the Agency’s HRA plan. Naturally, you may never receive reimbursement for claims over the amount you have available in your Health Reimbursement Arrangement.
Claims for pre-paid orthodontia services will not be honored under the Agency’s unreimbursed medical flexible spending account.
If you have questions about this change or any questions about HRA accounts, contact Kathy Martin, Benefits Specialist, at kmartin@aea11.k12.ia.us or ext. 14385 or Kabel Business Services at (515) 224-9400.
