Funding Accounts

Helping You Achieve a Healthier Bottom Line

CDPHP makes it easy with funding account options, flexibility, and choice of administrator.

Funding account options

When it comes to choosing the type of funding account to offer, it’s all about what’s best for your company and your employees.

Key differentiators among the options include:

  • Who makes the contributions?

  • What expenses the funds can be used for

  • Whether the funds can roll over from year to year

Use the resources below to learn about each type of funding account and how each can be used to help reduce the costs of your medical expenses.

Select the administrator that's right for you

Choose from two trusted third-party administrators (TPAs) for FSA/HRA plan administration:

CDPHP

Our unique claims integration system makes it easier to administer and use an HRA from CDPHP. It saves time and eliminates hassle by substantiating claims and paying the provider directly on behalf of your employees. And best of all – it all happens at CDPHP. That means no extra claims feeds or different service vendors to manage, keeping information secure and providing more efficient coordination of medical benefits and HRA claims.

HealthEquity

The unique relationship between CDPHP and HealthEquity allows for true data integration. Unlike most other health account administrators who claim to have “integration,” our solution with HealthEquity is complete. Our proprietary technology allows claims, eligibility, and other data to be imported directly into an accommodating system. This results in a smooth experience with less paperwork and more powerful tools.
