| SUMMARY: |
Combined Regent Institutions’ and State Agencies’ Flexible Spending Accounts Remittance Files for Plan Year 2014
|
||
Beginning with the 2014 benefit year, Flexible Spending Account (FSA) deduction information for Regent institutions and State agencies will be combined and included on one KPAYFSA2 remittance file. Effective for the pay period beginning December 8, 2013, ending December 21, 2013, and paid January 3, 2014, one KPAYFSA2 file will be sent centrally to the new FSA vendor for 2014, NueSynergy. Currently, each Regent institution and the State supply a remittance file to the FSA vendor. Regent institutions will no longer be required to submit their remittance file to the FSA vendor.
No additional FSA information will be required of Regent institutions. All required information will be pulled from the information in SHaRP already being provided through the open enrollment process and KREGBEN1 (for those Regent institutions using this file), and from normal payroll processing.
FSA deductions will be processed and balanced as part of the existing payroll processes that are used to reconcile other remittances. Kansas Department of Health and Environment will be responsible for balancing and submitting the combined remittance files to the new vendor.
