What a pain, NY! That does not seem right at all. I am glad you brought it up, though. Just in case mine does the same thing, I'll try to make sure I get the colonoscopy in between years for my preventive physical -- I tend to only do that every other year. I wonder if this is a common practice?

I hope you are pleasantly surprised on the FSA reimbursement for 2015 -- maybe you'll catch a break this time? When I was working and had one, I don't seem to recall having many problems with getting reimbursed. If I did, I've apparently blocked it out of my memory. It was an annoying task, though; I do remember having to fax in forms and such all the time and carefully plan medical expenses throughout the year to use my funds. I remember having to buy a ton of disposable contacts one year b/c I was going to end up with a bunch of money left over in my account....
