Flex Spending Account Claims

FBMC is pleased to announce online FSA claims submission through www.myFBMC.com. This process allows FSA participants the opportunity to submit, via the Web, a scanned image of a completed claim form along with scans of supporting documentation. Submitting claims online gets reimbursement requests to FBMC faster than the U.S. mail, thus expediting the release of reimbursement funds back to participants. Further details and instructions are available online. Log in to your account for more information. If you have any questions, please contact FBMC’s Customer Care Center at www.myFBMC.com.
