Flexible Spending Accounts
What happens if I terminate employment during the year?
There will be a run-off period (check your SPD) in which to submit expenses incurred while you were an active employee and participating in the plan. Also, if your employer offers COBRA, you may have the option to continue contributing to your Medical Care FSA using after-tax dollars.
