The balances in your Health Care and Dependent Care FSAs are subject to “use it or lose it” rules. You should estimate your health and dependent care expenses carefully when deciding how much money to put in the Flexible Spending Accounts. The IRS requires that you forfeit any FSA amounts you do not use. Active employees will have until March 31, 2026 to submit expenses for the 2025 plan year. There is a $2.50 per month fee to open these accounts. SAU covers the remaining fees. Please note that if you become benefit eligible mid-year, you may only submit for reimbursement for expenses incurred on or after the date you become benefit eligible. Changing or stopping deductions during the plan year must meet IRS regulations and qualifying event rules. Please check with HR for more information.

Not all benefits, limitations and exclusions of the benefit programs are listed. If there are any discrepancies between the illustrations contained herein and the benefit proposals or official benefit plan documents, the benefit proposals or official benefit plan documents prevail. See the official benefit plan documents for a full list of exclusions. SAU reserves the right to amend, modify or terminate any plan at any time and in any manner.  

Spring Arbor University’s health plan will take a secondary stance regarding auto-related medical claims.

SECONDARY: This means Spring Arbor University’s health plan will pay for covered medical claims after PIP. In the absence of PIP, the plan will pay medical benefits per the terms of the policy. It may not cover all medically-recommended services, with all providers, and it will not cover expenses related to assistance with the activities of daily living.

Please note: You have the option of waiving PIP completely if you are enrolled in Spring Arbor University’s health plan that has an annual deductible of less than $6,000 per covered person. If you do not have PIP, you may not have a source of income following an auto accident, in addition to coverage for services that are not a benefit under Spring Arbor University’s health plan.  Your health plan, GuideStone, will provide you a letter confirming qualifying health coverage upon request.  Please contact the Customer Solutions team at 1-844-467-4843 to request the letter.

Your auto insurance carrier may request a coordination of benefits statement. Please provide them with this language from the Legal Notices section of the 2022 SAU Benefits & Enrollment Guide, page 53.

MI No Fault and Auto Coordination
The medical plans offered by Spring Arbor University do meet the requirements to be considered qualified health coverage under the Michigan no-fault law. This is because the plans (1) do not exclude or limit coverage for injuries related to motor vehicle accidents; and (2) have an annual deductible of $6,579 or less per individual.
When coverage is “coordinated” between your auto policy and your employer-sponsored health plan, the health plan pays first for auto-related medical claims. The auto insurer will require you to provide documentation proving that your health plan will pay first, in order to elect coordinated coverage. As of January 1, 2022, SAU's group health plan is NOT considered 'coordinated' coverage, but this does not necessarily mean that other health coverage (i.e. spouse’s) is not ‘coordinated’. Be sure to ask the question and confirm this detail before you have a discussion with your auto insurer agent.
If coverage between the auto policy and the health plan is “uncoordinated,” then the PIP coverage will pay claims first. Spring Arbor University’s health plan is considered ‘uncoordinated’ and will take a secondary stance regarding auto- related medical claims.
SECONDARY: This means Spring Arbor University’s health plan will pay for covered medical claims only after auto PIP coverage. In the absence of PIP, the plan will pay medical benefits per the terms of the policy. It may not cover all medically-recommended services, with all providers, and it will not cover expenses related to assistance with the activities of daily living.
