*Please note, all "potentially eligible health care expenses" require a letter of medical necessity from your health care provider in order to be considered eligible for reimbursement. The letter must include the diagnosis or symptoms for which you, your spouse, dependent or adult child through age 26 are being treated, along with specific information on how the product or service is intended to alleviate symptoms or improve function. Submitting a LMN for your claim does not guarantee that the expense will be reimbursed. You must submit a new LMN each year if the medical condition persists - they cannot be approved indefinitely. As of January 1, 2011 eligible over-the-counter (OTC) products that are medicines or drugs (e.g., acne treatments, allergy and cold medicines, antacids, etc.) will only be eligible for reimbursement from your Health Care FSA with a physician's prescription that includes his or her address and license number, as stated in IRS Notice 2010-59. The only exception is insulin - which will not require a prescription. OTC products or items that are not considered medicines or drugs, such as bandages and nasal strips, will continue to be eligible without a prescription. For information on submitting OTC expenses, see the OTC Quick Reference Guide.
