Please note, selecting LOA status will automatically suspend the employee debit card and not allow claim submission for services during the leave period. If you would like to allow claim payments during leave (i.e. FMLA protected leave or paid leave) please be sure to check the box that says "Allow Services to be incurred while on LOA" when entering the new status.
