WEX Health is a platform that offers users a convenient way to sign up for and manage their HSA and FSA accounts. With the software, users can easily track the billing of COBRA for former employees, allowing them to run reports and monitor individual account spending. This helps ensure compliance with government regulations and facilitates necessary communications. Additionally, WEX Health accurately manages funding for FSAs and HSAs, enabling employees to take control of their own accounts. Users appreciate the platform's ability to handle various employee benefits, including Health Savings Accounts and commuter benefit accounts. They can set up accounts online, activate debit cards, view statements, and make investment decisions.

Despite occasional claim denials, WEX Health has been praised for frequently reversing them after substantial effort and evidence is provided. Users have also expressed satisfaction with the professionalism and empathy of WEX staff, particularly the Cobra team. The WEX Flex benefit phone app is highly regarded by users in the industry. However, some users have found the FSA benefits processing to be cumbersome and express dissatisfaction with the interpretation of IRS regulations. They have also voiced disappointment when their FSA setup prevents them from accessing reasonably priced healthcare options, as difficulties in reversing the setup may result in loss of funds taken from earnings. Overall, WEX Health serves as a valuable tool for managing health and commuter benefits, with users experiencing both positive outcomes and areas for improvement in their interactions with the platform.

Users highly recommend considering WEX as an FSA or COBRA vendor due to its ability to cover all the bases and provide comprehensive solutions. They suggest sitting down with WEX for an assessment to explore the full range of offerings available. Users also appreciate the personable and responsive nature of WEX, as they promptly resolve any issues that may arise. Moreover, users find value in requesting a demo to gain a firsthand experience of what WEX has to offer.

WEX offers basic, mostly functional service. However, when there are discrepancies along the supply chain, WEX can do nothing to help the customer. Moreover, for basic tasks, using WEX is unnecessarily difficult. There is no guidance on FSA substantiation, yet WEX imposes stricter requirements than the IRS. For such a simple offering, WEX should get it right, but doesn't.

If you have a healthcare plan that is predictable it may be useful. If you don’t know your annual expenses or situation changes you will lose earnings. Gamification of our wages is not beneficial to anyone but the company managing the funds.

We are a mid-size organization with about 175 employees. WEX Health works well for us. It is easy to use (you don't have to be super tech savvy). It allows a good amount of visibility for FSAs and COBRA communications. We have a file feed connected to WEX Health from our HRIS, so it really helps us stay compliant automatically, with General Notices and Specific Rights Notices when we have new hires or terms.

As a user of WEX who has a Health Savings Account and who used to have a commuter benefits account, I can say that using the accounts is easy. They give you a single debit card for both accounts and it automatically knows (based on the vendor) if a transaction should come out of your HSA or commuter benefits account. However, general IT issues seem to have plagued my experience using WEX. For example, they seem to require you to make a new password every few months, which made even just logging in a nightmare (I don't like to save passwords for financial accounts to my browser). Their support team is also not helpful, as getting the information I needed to complete my taxes for my HSA proved to be very difficult.

WEX Health (formerly Evolution1) is a great organization for organizations that offer Flexible benefits. The phone app is one of the best I have seen and would be great to roll out to those submitting receipts. WEX is a good organization that works well with the business office for ease of providing funding and record keeping.

It is well suited to help us see exactly which employee and which company the employee is with and how much they employee spent. I really like the reports that it generates and the detail it gives. However I would like to see more details. It would be nice to see the exact date the funds were withdrawn and where the funds were spent. I think this could help us determine that the employee is spending the funds at correct locations and help us when we do our reconciliations of these accounts.
