Citi Benefits Handbook
Filing a Claim
Generally, you will have until June 30 following the year in which you incur the eligible expense to file and resolve a claim for reimbursement. In order for a claim to be deemed an eligible expense to be reimbursed, you must provide any pertinent documentation to establish that a claim is eligible for reimbursement, which may include documentation that a service provided in connection with a claim was medically necessary. All such documentation must be submitted and resolved by the June 30 deadline to avoid the amount being subject to forfeiture or included in taxable income in connection with the Optum Financial payment card. For example, you will have until June 30, 2024, to file claims for reimbursement of expenses incurred in 2023.
For the fastest results, use your Optum Financial payment card to directly pay for eligible health care expenses. You can also submit claims as follows.
