Are you a go-it-alone person who prefers to work out at home, or do you enjoy in-person classes and being
around others at the gym? Either way, you’ve got options for working toward a healthier you.

simple to find solutions. Boeing families must be registered with Bright Horizons to use this service.

child care, and provides free, unlimited basic background checks for babysitters, nannies, pet sitters,
household help or elder care providers. The service can also connect families with discounted tutoring

Most Boeing families can use Flexible Spending Accounts through Your Spending AccountTM (YSA)
to pay for eligible health care or dependent care expenses. Employees fund the account through pre-tax
paycheck contributions throughout the year.
There are two options for using your FSA funds:
- Use the YSA debit card to pay for expenses on the spot.
- File for reimbursement through the mobile app or website using a receipt. Eligible expenses can be
incurred:
- Health Care FSA: Jan. 1 – Dec. 31, 2022
- Dependent Care FSA: Jan. 1, 2022 – March 15, 2023
For either account, families must request reimbursement by April 30, 2023. Between $10 and $570 of Health
Care FSA funds can roll over to use in the following year, but unused Dependent Care FSA funds will be
forfeited.
You won’t have your own access to YSA, but your Boeing employee can log in using their username and
password.
