The following is a guide to the supplemental insurance benefits that are offered to all full-time eligible employees of Georgetown Independent School District. This description only outlines the coverages that are offered. For a full and complete understanding of the products, please read the product brochures and discuss any questions with the Insurance representatives. When reviewing the plans and premiums, remember that the cost will be deducted on a pre-tax basis for most products. *The Life Insurance and Disability products should not be pre-taxed. SPECIAL RULES REGARDING THE GEORGETOWN INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT CAFETERIA PLAN There are two very important issues to keep in mind: 1. Although all coverages are voluntary (you may pick and choose), every employee is required to sign their Section 125 Benefit Election Form, even if they select no benefits or choose to keep current benefits the same. 2. Any “pre-tax” elections will remain in effect and cannot be revoked or changed during the plan year unless you have one of the following changes in family status: marriage, divorce, birth, adoption, death, termination or change in spouse’s employment or, change in eligibility status of a dependent. It is also possible to change your medical coverage if there is a substantial increase in the premium and you have like coverage elsewhere.

This plan will provide you with income (you can insure up to 70% of your salary) should you become disabled, and has various waiting periods you can select depending on when you would like your benefits to begin. There is also a doctor bill benefit payable (if you are sick and miss a day of work and go to a doctor) for out-of- pocket expenses up to $50 for illness and up to $100 for a non-disabling injury. This is only a benefit during the school year. There are two plans available to choose from, so that you may select the plan that best meets your needs. Heart and Stroke Insurance-Allstate The Heart and Stroke plan provides protection for you and your family against the cost associated with heart disease by providing benefits for angiograms, cardiograms, heart transplants and surgery. Individual Monthly – ½ unit Family (if covered) Monthly – ½ unit $8.98 $17.32 Individual Monthly – 1 unit Family (if covered) Monthly – 1 unit $17.96 $34.64 LIFE INSURANCE Group Life-UNUM Georgetown ISD offers Group Life insurance through UNUM.

These policies are portable at the same price and coverage. Coverage can be purchased for dependents including spouses, children and grandchildren. Coverage is guaranteed to age 121. Term Life Insurance-American Fidelity Assurance Term Life insurance is a policy that covers you during your earning years when you need it the most. You choose the term, 10, 20 or 30 years that you decide is best for you and your family. Long Term Care-Lifesecure Georgetown ISD is offering employees a Long Term Care plan through Lifesecure. This benefit will help you protect your financial independence and preserve your freedom to choose how to live life on your terms and reduce the effects of long term care on your family. Medical Bridge-Colonial Life Hospital Confinement Indemnity Plans can help to fill gaps and help protect against out-of-pocket expenses. Major benefits include: Wellness Benefit, Outpatient Surgical Benefit, Hospital Confinement Benefit, and Rehabilitation Unit Benefit. Employee is eligible for a wellness benefit. Flexible Spending Account (FSA) Georgetown ISD allows employees to set aside up to $2,500 per year for unreimbursed medical expenses and/or up to $5,000 per year for dependent day care expenses on a pre-tax basis. Federal regulations effective January 1, 2011 will exclude over-the-counter medications from being eligible expenses. Medical Reimbursement-Administered by First Financial Group A reimbursement account is established with funds deducted from the employee’s monthly paycheck. The maximum annual amount that can be set aside is $2,500. Medical costs not covered by insurance (eyeglasses, chiropractic treatments, etc.) are paid for; the employee then submits his/her receipts with a voucher and is then sent funds from the reimbursement account thus circumventing taxes on all those expenses (NOTE: First Financial has the ability to wire transfer this money directly into your bank account). The employee must estimate the expenses he/she expects to incur over the twelve-month period, and divide this amount by twelve months to determine the amount to be deducted from his/her paycheck. This benefit is a “USE IT OR LOSE IT” benefit; any monies left in the account at the end of the year are retained by the district and are not refunded to the employee. An employee should consider this benefit carefully. You have the entire plan year to incur qualified expenses plus an additional 2 ½ months. You have 90 days after the plan year for reimbursement of expenses. The Metavante debit card will be available for your medical expense reimbursement purchases in lieu of submitting receipts and vouchers. All over the counter items eligible for reimbursement must be accompanied by a doctor’s prescription and reimbursement request claim form. OTC claims may no longer be purchased using the FFA Benefits Debit. Serious Consideration The employee is locked into the payroll deduction for the length of the Plan Document year May 1, 2013 – April 30, 2014. If any funds have not been used (reimbursed) by the employee at the end of the Plan Document Year, those unused funds cannot be returned to the employee. Therefore, one must be certain to never have an amount withheld from one’s paycheck, which will exceed the actual amount paid for out-of-pocket medical expenses. A qualified dependent child must be under the age of 19; if a full-time student, they must be under the age of 24. Dependent Care Reimbursement-First Financial Group This benefit is available to any employee who wishes to save tax dollars on the cost of child care.

  • MODERNIZING the DC/401(K) PLAN SYSTEM
    MODERNIZING THE DC/401(k) PLAN SYSTEM Introduction Retirement savings from defined contribution plans are important to the economic, work, and financial security of the nation. As these environments change—revealing more diverse employer and worker circumstances and needs—it is important to review and update the applicable rules so that these plans can continue to drive financial innovation, improve retirement security, and provide continued support to employers, workers, and their families. The ERISA Industry Committee (ERIC) has developed a series of proposals to modernize defined contribution plans. ERIC’s member companies have reflected on the emerging and diverse range of 21st century changes confronting employers and workers. The ideas included in this paper build and improve upon measures that were under consideration in previous Congresses, but importantly, the paper also includes many new proposals designed to improve defined contribution plans to make them more predictable, less complicated, and ultimately more beneficial for employers and workers alike. Representing companies that voluntarily offer retirement and other benefits to workers and families across the country, ERIC is committed to the retirement security and financial well- being of the nation’s workforce. ERIC is the only national association that advocates exclusively for the country’s largest employers on health, retirement, and compensation public policies at the federal, state, and local levels. ERIC member companies are leaders in every sector of the economy, with employees in every state and locality. These companies offer employee benefits to millions of workers and families across the country, and promote retirement savings, financial wellness, and health care value improvements and cost savings.

  • “Cafeteria” Plans
    Tax Researcher Volume XXV Issue 6 June 2008 “CAFETERIA” PLANS: Benefits For Both Employers and Employees A cafeteria plan is a separate written plan maintained by an employer for employees that meets the specific requirements of Internal Revenue Code section 125. It provides participants an opportunity to receive certain benefits on a pretax (income and FICA) basis. Participants in a cafeteria plan must be permitted to choose from a “menu” at least one taxable benefit (such as cash) and one qualified benefit. Generally, a cafeteria plan does not include any benefit that defers pay. One exception is a qualified 401(k) plan. However, while these deferrals are not subject to income tax, they are taxable for FICA and FUTA. IRS Requirements Section 125 specifies the requirements for cafeteria plans: written documentation, certain reporting to the I.R.S., and limits on the frequency of employee changes to benefit elections. Particularly important, the tax preference of Section 125 will not apply to any benefit provided under the plan if the plan discriminates in favor of "key" or "highly-compensated" individuals as to eligibility to participate, or as to contributions and benefits. In cases of discrimination, the benefits selected by such "key" and "highly-compensated" employees will lose the tax exclusion. What Benefits May Be Included? A cafeteria plan offers employees an election among only permitted taxable benefits (including cash) and qualified nontaxable benefits. For this purpose, cash means cash from current compensation (including salary reduction), payment for annual leave, sick leave, or other paid time off, severance pay, property, and certain after-tax employee contributions.

  • [TD 8878 ] RIN 1545-AU61 Tax Treatment of Cafet
    [4830-01-u] DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY Internal Revenue Service 26 CFR Part 1 [TD 8878 ] RIN 1545-AU61 Tax Treatment of Cafeteria Plans AGENCY: Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Treasury. ACTION: Final regulations. SUMMARY: This document contains final regulations relating to section 125 cafeteria plans. The final regulations clarify the circumstances under which a section 125 cafeteria plan election may be changed. The final regulations permit an employer to allow a section 125 cafeteria plan participant to revoke an existing election and make a new election during a period of coverage for accident or health coverage or group-term life insurance coverage. DATES: Effective Date: These regulations are effective March 23, 2000. Applicability Date: These regulations are applicable for cafeteria plan years beginning on or after January 1, 2001. See the Scope of Regulations and Effective Date portion of this preamble. 1 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Janet A. Laufer or Christine L. Keller at (202) 622-6080 (not a toll-free number). SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background This document contains amendments to the Income Tax Regulations (26 CFR part 1) under section 125. Section 125 generally provides that an employee in a cafeteria plan will not have an amount included in gross income solely because the employee may choose among two or more benefits consisting of cash and "qualified benefits." A qualified benefit generally is any benefit that is excludable from gross income under an express provision of the Internal Revenue Code, including coverage under an employer-provided accident or health plan under sections 105 and 106, group-term life insurance under section 79, elective contributions under a qualified cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of section 401(k), dependent care assistance under section 129, and adoption assistance under section 137.1 Qualified benefits can be provided under a cafeteria plan either through insured arrangements or arrangements that are not insured.
