Medical FSA and HSA Expense Eligibility List The following is a summary of common expenses claimed against Medical Flexible Spending Account (FSAs) and Health Savings Accounts (HSAs). Due to frequent updates to the regulations governing FSAs and HSAs, this list does not guarantee reimbursement, but instead is to be utilized as a guide for the submission of claims. A definition of eligibility is as follows (all expenses are assumed to have been incurred during the active plan year): Yes: The expense is eligible for reimbursement. No: The expense is not eligible for reimbursement under any circumstance. Dual-Purpose: The expense may be eligible for reimbursement if a Medical Necessity letter or signed doctor’s note is provided to U.S. Bank Healthcare Payment Solutions for any Flexible Spending Account (FSA) expenses. For Health Savings Account (HSA) expenses, the Medical Necessity Form or signed doctor’s note should be maintained with tax records in the event of an audit. In either case, the expense must be used to treat a medical condition. Potentially: The expense may be eligible for reimbursement provided certain conditions or criteria (as specified in the Comments and Special Rules section) are satisfied. Rx: The expense is eligible for reimbursement once a doctor’s prescription has been obtained prior to purchase. The purchase must be at a drug store, pharmacy, non-healthcare merchant that has a pharmacy (Target, Walgreens, etc.) or mail/web based vendors that sell prescription drugs.
