Written and edited by experienced employee benefits attorneys, EBIA Cafeteria Plans is one of the nation's leading resources for sponsors and administrators, and discusses just about every cafeteria plan design and administration issue. It provides in-depth coverage of legal requirements for cafeteria plans, health FSAs, and DCAPs, and features practical, real-world examples, tips, tables, checklists, and sample documents to keep you in compliance and on top of new developments. You’ll get guidance on:

  • Cafeteria Plan Basics. The basics and nuances of cafeteria plan design and administration are covered, with in-depth analysis and clear explanations of complex issues such as cafeteria plan election changes and health care reform’s impact on cafeteria plans.
  • Health FSAs. Health FSA design and administration are covered in detail, including issues such as medical care definition, claim substantiation, and debit card programs. A quick-reference table classifies over 350 common expenses as “qualifying,” “not qualifying,” or “potentially qualifying,” making it easy to determine what can be reimbursed.
  • DCAPs. Comprehensive coverage is provided of this important benefit. A table of common expenses shows which expenses can be reimbursed.
  • Nondiscrimination Rules. We explain the ins and outs of the Code’s nondiscrimination rules for cafeteria plans, health FSAs, and DCAPs.
