BODi works with telehealth platforms Truemed and Dr.
Read on to find out if you qualify—and learn how to get the most out of your HSA or FSA money with BODi.
What is an HSA/FSA?
Think of Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) as dedicated savings banks for your healthcare expenses—but much better because they’re completely tax-free.
These accounts allow you to set aside money from your paycheck for everyday healthcare expenses like doctor visits, prescriptions, and basic necessities like sunscreen and band-aids.
Typically, your employer sets up the account and does all the heavy lifting. They automatically deduct the amount you choose from your paycheck before any taxes are due.
Not only can you spend this money tax-free (hello, savings!), but you may even fall into a lower tax bracket because this money doesn’t count toward your taxable income.
There’s one little catch you should keep in mind: If you have an FSA, you have to use the money by December 31st or it will disappear! (Although there are exceptions to some plans, be sure to check with your provider.)
If you’re worried about the use-it-or-lose-it deadline, here’s some good news: HSA money is different. Whatever you put in there is yours with no expiration date in sight.
How can I spend my HSA/FSA dollars?
Trying to figure out what you can actually buy with those HSA/FSA dollars? The list is much longer than you might think! So don’t worry if you’re worried about running out of your FSA money before it expires – you have tons of options.
You can use your HSA/FSA funds for many everyday drugstore items you probably already buy, such as first aid, pads, cold medicine when you’re feeling unwell, acne treatments, feminine hygiene, and even contact lenses and breast pumps.
If they help treat or manage common health problems, they are usually successful.
Are HSA and FSA supplements eligible?
There are some vitamins and supplements such as prenatal vitamins, rehydration solutions, and fiber laxatives that are automatically eligible for HSA and FSA reimbursement. For all other supplements and vitamins including BODi supplementsyou first need approval from a doctor.
All you need to do is contact our telehealth partner Truemed to see if you qualify. It’s very simple: just fill out a form Online questionnaire — no video appointment necessary! – and if you are eligible, you will receive a Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN) to submit to your HSA/FSA along with your receipts.
