The PWA is a company-owned savings account—or health reimbursement account--available to Team Members who are eligible for and enroll in one of our high-deductible health plans: the National Plan or the Whole Health Plan. A PWA is designed to help you cover first-dollar costs for out-of-pocket healthcare expenses during the year, such as deductibles, copays, and other eligible services.

Yes. WFM makes a contribution each year to the PWA. The amount varies based on the medical plan you choose and your coverage tier.
