11 Health Aids that Qualify for HSA and FSA Reimbursement

It's a good idea to review your Health Savings Accounts (HSA) or Flexible Spending Arrangement (FSA) balance before the end of 2024. While HSA balances roll over, FSA accounts expire at the end of the year, so if you haven't used your saved funds, you'll lose them.

With thousands of HSA- and FSA-eligible items available online from retailers like Amazon and Walmart, you can easily monitor your health at home using pretax dollars. These dollars can cover a range of health devices, including home diagnostic kits, medical testing devices, and mobility aids. As flu season approaches, it's a great time to stock up on home health remedies that can be delivered straight to your door.
