[SchoolFinance] FSA plans

[Shelley Cummings]

Is Horace Mann continuing to provide the FSA service to your district? They
have sent us information indicating that they no longer provide that
service. We are searching for a new provider and will most likely go with
MSMA and they do charge a per participant monthly fee.
We are currently discussing how to handle this.
1.) Cover that fee (we have a small number of participants)
2.) Pass the fee on to the participants - which will not go over well.

I have the same questions as Gabby.
