Manage your dependents

Add dependents to your account, associate them with eligible benefits, and issue cards so they can access funds.

You can add and manage dependents directly in your Health Wallet. Once a dependent is added, you can associate them with your eligible benefits and issue them a card to access funds.

No dependent logins

Dependents don't have their own Health Wallet login and cannot manage their own information. You manage everything for dependents from your account.

View your dependents

To see all dependents currently associated with your account, go to your Profile and select the Dependents tab. You'll see each dependent's name, date of birth, and the benefits they're associated with.

Language note on dependents

A dependent is a qualifying child or relative who relies on you for financial support. For a list of all eligible dependents, see this IRS resource on tax dependents.

About dependent cards

You can only issue a card for a dependent who has already been added under your Dependents tab. You can't add a new dependent from the Cards page. If you previously set up family cards, your existing dependent information will carry over to your new Dependents tab automatically.

Dependent claims

You can submit claims for your dependents for eligible benefits. See "Submit a claim."
