Sometimes, you want to learn at your own pace. Through Personify Health personalized learning journeys, you can access step-by-step guidance and educational resources for each stage of pregnancy and early parenting, including newborn care, breastfeeding, sleep routines and managing the transition to parenthood.

Fertility treatment coverage
The road to parenthood is unique and can require financial investment.
If you're facing challenges in your journey to conceive, have questions, or want to learn more about fertility support options, contact your medical carrier.
Anthem, UHC and Surest members can access a broad array of fertility services, including artificial insemination, in vitro fertilization (IVF, GIFT or ZIFT) and cryopreservation, with a lifetime maximum of $75,000 to allow for multi-cycle coverage.
Kaiser and HMSA members: Contact your medical carrier to confirm coverage.
Family assistance and reimbursement program
If you’re looking to grow your family through adoption, legal guardianship or surrogacy, consider the family assistance and reimbursement program through Maven Wallet. You can receive consultation and resources on adoption and surrogacy matters and reimbursement for eligible adoption and surrogacy expenses:
- Up to $15,000 for full-time V Teamers or part-timers working at least 30 hours per week
- Up to $7,500 for part-time V Teamers working 20 – 30 hours per week
Dependent care spending account
You can save on child and adult day care expenses when you contribute pretax dollars to the dependent care spending account (DCSA).
How it works
Enroll through BenefitsConnection as a new V Teamer or during Annual Enrollment. You can make changes each year during Annual Enrollment or following a qualifying life event.
Set aside up to $5,000 pretax if you’re single or married and filing a joint tax return ($2,500 if you’re married and file separate tax returns). Dependent care expenses are DCSA-eligible only when you and your spouse or domestic partner are both working or attending school full time.
Plan carefully. If you do not use your 2024 DCSA balance by March 15, 2025, it will be forfeited. You have until May 31, 2025, to file claims for the 2024 plan year. Similarly, you will have until March 15, 2026, to use your 2025 DCSA balance.
Your contributions may be limited. If you earn more than $160,000 in wages during 2025, your annual DCSA contributions will be capped at $2,400 in 2025 due to IRS nondiscrimination rules. Future nondiscrimination testing in 2025 could result in a different limit.
Eligible expenses
Dependent care expenses are incurred when the care is provided, not when you are billed. Eligible expenses include:
- Preschool and day care for children until kindergarten
- Before- and after-school care (other than tuition) up to age 13
- Child care at a day camp or nursery school or by a private babysitter up to age 13
- Summer or holiday campus, including registration fees, up to age 13
- Transportation to and from the caregiver when they provide the transportation
- Nonresidential day care expenses for an adult dependent who is mentally or physically incapable of caring for themself and who lives with you at least eight hours per day

Backup care
We know life doesn’t always go according to plan. When your regular caregiving arrangement for your child or adult dependent falls through or you just need some time to yourself, our backup care has you covered—even on nights and weekends.
Through our partnership with Bright Horizons, you have access to up to 80 hours of vetted and subsidized backup care for your child and adult dependents who live in your home. You pay just $4 per hour for in-home care and $2 per hour for in-center care.
To learn more, visit Bright Horizons.
Tutoring
You and your dependents are eligible for up to 50 hours of free, 24/7 online assistance from certified tutors each year. This includes:
- Live one-to-one online tutoring across 50+ academic subjects—from kindergarten to college
- Drop-off review of student writing assignments
- Academic quizzes to provide students with practice problems in math, science, English and a variety of other topics
- An inventory of educational resources to help students prepare for ACT and SAT exams
