Streamline Your Reimbursement Experience

If an employer subsidy is available to you, these four simple steps can make reimbursements easier.

Managing your reimbursements doesn’t have to be complicated. With the Via Benefits Accounts website or mobile app, you can handle most tasks online — quickly, securely, and on your schedule.

 

Step 1: Create your Via Benefits account

Setting up your account gives you easy access to your reimbursement information anytime through the website or mobile app.

Step 2: Enroll in direct deposit

Direct deposit is the fastest and most secure way to receive your reimbursement payments. Once it’s set up, your approved reimbursements go straight to your bank account.

You can enroll through the website or mobile app. For guidance, visit the Set Up Direct Deposit article.

Step 3: Choose an Automatic Reimbursement Option

Automatic reimbursement works in two steps:

  1. You pay your premium.

  2. After your payment is processed, your reimbursement is sent automatically.

Pick the option that works for your plan.

Automatic Premium Reimbursement

  • For Medicare plans only (most Medicare plans are eligible)

  • No yearly renewal

  • No supporting documents required

  • Easiest option for Medicare premium reimbursement

Express Reimbursement

  • For Medicare and Individual and Family plan premium reimbursement

  • Usually no supporting documents required

Recurring Premium Reimbursement

  • Used if other options are not available

  • Supporting documents required
