If the money rolled over into the next year, it might be a good idea. You forfeit whatever money (your own money) you have left in it at the end of the year. At least thats the case with my company’s plan.

Congress refuses to amend the law to permit FSA funds to be carried over into the following year. The concern seems to be that people might eventually have enough money saved that --gasp-- they won't need health insurance. We can't have people just paying for their own medical expenses out of pocket. /sarc

Our FSA (Flex plan) allows you to carry over into April of the next year. Excellent, excellent benefit.
