Express Reimbursement Overview
This article applies to you if you have a Via Benefits reimbursement account (sometimes known as a Health Reimbursement Arrangement)*.
Express Reimbursement provides easy expense submission in just a few steps! Your reimbursement requests are created using premium information we have on file. You simply review and submit the request. We’ll do the rest.
If you’re enrolled in a plan through Via Benefits and haven’t turned on Automatic Premium Reimbursement, you’ll see an informational page about Expense Reimbursement when you log in to the mobile app or website. You can begin your reimbursement request on this page. Note: Express Reimbursement isn’t available if you are enrolled in an Individual or Family Plan and reside in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, or Vermont.
Express Reimbursement is like Recurring Premium Reimbursement, in that you’ll receive your reimbursements monthly. Unlike recurring reimbursement, most Express Reimbursements don’t require supporting documentation. This is a great plus! Most reimbursement requests that are not approved are delayed because of incorrect documentation. You’ll get your reimbursement faster because the request isn’t reviewed unless supporting documentation is needed. Supporting documentation will only be required if you edit the policy period or the amount to be higher than the information we have on file.
