I told them that they will take my money quickly, but trying to get it back when the insurance claim is completed is like pulling teeth. Don't back down, they will probably give up.

The last time we were expecting a child, the hospital asked for money upfront. I told them that as a rule, i don't pay anything until I see my EOB from my insurance company. They backed down. Not sure if they will take no for an answer, but you can give it a shot.

Has this been the same employer or different ones? Your employer can choose to contribute $1200, but it is not legally mandated, and an employer can choose to have no contribution.

Not sure you are correct on the $1200 limit, as my employer contributes $3000 total ($750 per quarter). The only limitation is the max $7300 for Families and $3650 for a single person. Keep in mind both employee and employer contributions are included in those max amounts.

just a coincidence perhaps, but it does equal to $100 per month
