Commuter Benefits

Amedisys offers you the opportunity to save for both transit and parking expenses on a pre-tax basis for your costs related to commuting to work.

There are two types of accounts:

  1. Commuter transit account
  2. Commuter parking accounts

For 2025, you can contribute up to $325 per month for each account (a maximum of $650 pre-tax between the two accounts). Any remaining balance at the end of the month rolls over to the next month.

Eligible expenses include buses, trains, subways, ferries, vanpools and even shared ride services, and parking near work or at a commuting lot.

To participate, you can enroll at any time during the year directly through Optum Financial where you can set up a recurring monthly enrollment or opt for month to month, determine your contribution amount, purchase transit passes, and more. Enrollment must be completed by the 10th of the month for the next month’s coverage.

How it works

Sign in to your account at myoptumfinancial.com/amedisys and select the Commuter Benefits tab to get started.

Enter your parking and transit orders online, and the cost of your orders will be automatically deducted from your paycheck on a pre-tax basis.

You can even set up recurring orders that automatically generate your transit order or pay your contracted parking vendor. If your commuting needs change, you can adjust or cancel your order.
