FSA $5,000 annual max question

[CEB]

Is the max for the entire family? Or could an employee and their spouse (different employer) both elect $5,000 with their own employer. I am thinking it is $5,000 for the entire family (not $10,000).

Dependent care max is $5,000 per family. The medical accounts are plan dependent and can be much higher.

Thanks for this information my husband has been wondering about this for the longest.
