About this file

This is a Fee Matrix and Service Agreement between the City of Waxahachie, Texas and Surency Life & Health Insurance Company for the administration of Health Savings Accounts (HSA), Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA), and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (DCFSA), as well as Continuation Coverage (COBRA) services. The agreement was executed on September 8, 2022, and establishes the pricing structure for administrative services supporting approximately 475 city employees. The City has delegated administrative responsibilities to Surency for managing Code 125 Cafeteria Plans that include Code 105 Health FSA, Code 129 Dependent Care FSA, Code 223 Health Savings Account Contribution Benefits, and Continuation Coverage services. The agreement includes comprehensive administrative support such as sample documents and forms, staff training, online enrollment, open enrollment meetings and packets, replacement and dependent debit cards, and electronic account statements.

The fee structure establishes a Cost Per Participant Per Month (PPPM) service charge of $3.25 for Health FSA and Dependent Care FSA administration, $1.50 for HSA administration, and $0.60 for Continuation Coverage administration, with all PPPM charges guaranteed through September 30, 2026. A flat Administration Service Charge of $50.00 applies regardless of which Component Benefits are enrolled. The agreement includes a monthly minimum service charge of $75.00 for any month in which combined PPPM charges fall below this threshold. Additional charges apply for specific services including Check Distribution ($2.50 per check), Account Closure ($25.00), Stop Payment ($25.00), Printed Account Statements ($3.00), and Annual Renewal Rate Reset ($10.00 per participant). The PPPM service charges are contingent on debit cards being issued to all participants and enrollment being received electronically; failure to meet these conditions may result in increases of $0.25 to $0.50 per month. Courier and special mailing charges are passed through to the City at cost, and custom programming is available at $175.00 per hour.
