Enrollment in your Flex Elect reimbursement account ends once you leave state employment. However, if you have a Dependent Care Reimbursement Account, and there are funds remaining, you may submit claims for eligible expenses incurred. You will need to submit your claims by the normal deadline for expenses incurred in the calendar year.

If you have a Medical Reimbursement Account, you may only submit claims for your expenses incurred while you are a state employee. If you have money remaining in your account after you are laid off, you may continue to claim reimbursement for eligible expenses if you continue your Medical Reimbursement Account through COBRA. If you exercise this option, you make monthly contributions to your Flex Elect account on an after-tax basis; you may reduce contributions to the minimum level. You will need to submit reimbursement claims by the normal deadline for expenses incurred in the calendar year.
