D.C. Mun. Regs. tit. 6, r. 6-B1175
A self-insured medical reimbursement plan within the meaning of 105 of the Internal Revenue Code provides a pre-tax benefit to participants that will enable them to recover certain unreimbursed health care costs. A participant in the Medical Expense Flexible Spending Account may elect to reduce his or her salary by a maximum annual amount of up to $2,500, to be reduced in equal installments based on the number of pay periods in the plan year. This maximum amount will be prorated for a participant who enrolls in the Medical Expense Flexible Spending Account for less than a full twelve (12) months.
A participant in a Medical Expense Flexible Spending Account shall be entitled to reimbursements for eligible expenses incurred during the plan year for the health care of the participant, and the participant's spouse and dependents.
Claims for reimbursement for eligible medical expenses shall be made on the appropriate form or forms furnished by the Plan Administrator for purposes of Medical Expense Flexible Spending Account and shall be submitted to the Plan Administrator.
Medical expenses reimbursed under the D.C. Employees' Health Benefits Program (DCEHB) and the Federal Employees' Health Benefits Program (FEHB) which cover the participant and eligible family members shall not be reimbursable under a MEFSA.
