What are FSA and HSA accounts?
Health Savings Accounts (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) are tax-free accounts that can be used to pay for qualified health expenses. These accounts are usually set up and managed by an HSA or FSA administrator, and you should have access to said HSA/FSA administrator through your employer (ask your HR department!).
HSAs are typically associated with a high-deductible health plan, and funds do not expire. FSAs are independent of your health plan, and funds elections occur in October-November each year for the following calendar year. FSA funds expire every calendar year.
Unfortunately, HSAs and FSAs are not available outside of the US, and self-employed individuals (who do not have an HSA from a previous employment) do not qualify for HSAs or FSAs.
How does using my HSA/FSA account save me money?
HSAs and FSAs were created so individuals could use pretax money to pay for expenses used to treat, mitigate or prevent a diagnosed medical condition. Since HSAs/FSAs use pretax money, you’re getting more purchasing power for your dollars. Rather than pay taxes on income and then spend it on health items, qualified customers can use pretax funds to invest in their health.
An individual can contribute up to $4,300 pretax to their HSA per year, or $8,850 for a family (plus an additional $1,000 if you are at least 55 years old). An individual can contribute up to $3,200 pretax to their FSA per year (with an additional $500 in employer contributions allowed).
Can I use my HSA/ FSA at Amazfit.com?
Yes, if qualified. Simply select Truemed as your payment option at checkout and use your FSA or HSA card as you would any other credit card. If you do not have sufficient HSA/FSA funds, you can split your payment between your credit card and HSA/FSA card.
Truemed is for qualified customers. HSA/FSA tax savings vary. Learn more at truemed.com/disclosures
What is a Letter of Medical Necessity, and how is this compliant?
The items in your Truemed Letter of Medical Necessity (“LMN”) are now qualified medical expenses in the same way a visit to the doctor’s office or pharmaceutical product is.
There are thousands of studies showing food and exercise is often the best medicine to prevent and reverse disease. Exercise qualifies as a qualified medical expense with an LMN. Food, supplements, and other health purchases qualify as medical expenses if they treat or prevent an illness, and a doctor substantiates the need. Your Truemed LMN satisfies all IRS requirements to make your wellness spend fully reimbursable.
Are there fees associated with using Truemed's services?
There is no cost to you.
When should I use my FSA/HSA dollars?
You can use your HSA/FSA dollars all year long. However, most FSA dollars expire at the end of the year and unused money may not rollover into the next year. Make sure to spend the rest of your FSA dollars before December 31st — use it, so you don’t lose it!
How long does it take for me to receive my Letter of Medical Necessity?
Generally it takes 2-5 hours. In some cases, Truemed’s provider team will require additional time to issue a letter of medical necessity based on the needs associated with an individual qualification survey. If you aren’t seeing your letter in your inbox, check spam, then reach out to us at support@truemed.com for help.
I don’t have an HSA/FSA. Can I still benefit from Truemed?
Unfortunately, Truemed’s services are for individuals who have HSA or FSA accounts (or plan to fund one during open enrollment). We encourage you to ask your employer about information on your HSA or FSA!
I don’t live in the US. Can I still get reimbursed with Truemed?
Unfortunately, Truemed is currently only available in the United States.
Who is Truemed?
Amazfit is collaborating with Truemed to easily provide the required Letter of Medical Necessity online for those who qualify.
