Health Savings Account (HSA)

An HSA is an interest-earning, tax-advantaged account. It’s a valuable financial tool that helps you make the most of the dollars you spend on current and future health care expenses for yourself or your tax dependents. For more detailed plan information visit the MaineHealth Benefits Portal or Health Equity.

Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA)

FSAs allow you to pay certain out-of-pocket health care, dependent care and transit expenses with pre-tax dollars. You can use the money you contribute to your FSA to pay for certain expenses that are not fully covered by your health, dental or vision plans. For more detailed plan information visit the MaineHealth Benefits Portal or Benefit Strategies.

Dependent Eligibility Audit

MaineHealth conducts an eligibility audit of all employees with new dependents enrolled in benefit plans. The Dependent Verification Center will mail a packet to your home with specific details on the required documentation. More information can be found on the MaineHealth Benefits Portal.

If you cannot work due to your own injury or illness, MaineHealth provides short-term disability (STD) and long-term disability (LTD) coverage.  More information can be found on the MaineHealth Benefits Portal or learn more from Unum on how to file a leave request and/or a short-term disability claim.
