When it comes to Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs), there are plenty of myths and misconceptions floating around. It's time to set the record straight and debunk some of these common FSA myths. In this comprehensive guide, we'll separate fact from fiction and provide you with the knowledge you need to make the most of your FSA.
Many people believe that if they don't spend all the money in their FSA by the end of the year, they'll lose it. The truth is, FSAs have evolved. While there may still be a "use-it-or-lose-it" rule, some employers offer a grace period or a rollover option. It's essential to check your FSA plan's specifics.
Contrary to popular belief, FSAs can be used for a wide range of medical expenses, including over-the-counter (OTC) items like pain relievers, bandages, and even sunscreen. In fact, the list of eligible items is quite extensive. Find an extensive catalog of FSA eligible items here.
FSA contributions are made with pre-tax dollars, which means they lower your taxable income. However, they are not considered tax-deductible like contributions to a Traditional IRA.
Accessing your FSA funds is easier than you might think. Many employers provide FSA debit cards that allow you to make purchases directly. Alternatively, you can submit claims for reimbursement. It's a straightforward process.
FSAs are typically offered in conjunction with health insurance, but they can also cover dependent care expenses. If you have dependents, such as children or elderly family members, you can use your FSA for eligible daycare costs.
FSAs can be your secret weapon for saving on everyday health and wellness products. From first aid supplies to feminine products and even orthopedic aids, many everyday items are FSA-eligible.

View Full DetailsThe ease in which my mom can exit the bed is a blessing! The fact that she loves the bed is all I need to be happy! Thank you!
This came at a time when there was a crisis with my husbands health. It is very manly and because you made it so easy, just unpack and go, I was saved much stress. Thank you for such a awesome product.
I have not been using them for a long time, but when you have bladder leakage, dependable is the best thing in the world. I am grateful for your product, thank you.
These masks are very comfortable and also different mood colors. Better than the plain black or hospital blue masks. Need more designs.
This mattress is excellent for anyone who has a special needs individual that isn't potty trained or is prone to accidents. It's makes clean up a breeze and they get a good quality mattress with great support. I highly recommend this mattress for anyone who may have incontinent issues.
Love my mask they are so soft and after a 12 hour shift my ears don't hurt .thanks for good quality service and product
The person i bought those for has passed away. Its been returned
The overbed table is just what I needed to elevate my phone, alarm clock and C-Pap
machine at the same height at the side of
my bed. I could not find an end table high
enough or large enough. It is worth getting.
