Can I use a FSA/HSA Card at a spa for a Massage?

Using FSA and HSA Medical Cards for a Massage:

YES. At Safe Haven Spa, we welcome the use of Flexible Spending Account (FSA) and Health Savings Account (HSA) cards for payment of our services.
These accounts offer a tax-advantaged way to pay for qualified medical expenses, including certain spa treatments, enhancing your overall wellness while managing your healthcare budget effectively.

Important Points to Remember:

• Pay for service: You can use your FSA or HSA card for payment at our spa without any issues. Our payment system will accept these cards just like any other debit or credit card.
• Customer Responsibility: It is solely the customer’s responsibility to ensure that the use of their FSA or HSA card for spa services is approved for reimbursement. While we provide detailed receipts, we do not have the capability to determine or verify the eligibility of your expenses with your FSA/HSA administrator.
• Reimbursement Approval: To be reimbursed, customers must handle the submission process and ensure that they meet all requirements set by their FSA/HSA administrator.

Common Steps to Use Your FSA/HSA at Our Spa:

1. Consult with Your Physician: Discuss your medical condition with your doctor and obtain a prescription or Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN) if they determine that a spa treatment, such as massage therapy, is medically necessary.
2. Verify Coverage: Contact your FSA/HSA administrator to confirm that the specific spa treatment is eligible for reimbursement under your plan. 
3. Schedule an Appointment: Book your appointment at Safe Haven Spa just like normal. 
4. Payment and Receipts: Use your FSA/HSA card to pay for the services. At checkout please ask for a detailed receipt that you can submit to your FSA/HSA administrator for reimbursement. We can EMAIL you a receipt!!

Best Practices for Submitting Receipts:

• Keep Detailed Records: Maintain copies of all prescriptions, LMNs, and receipts.
• Submit Promptly: Send your receipts to your FSA/HSA administrator as soon as possible to ensure timely reimbursement. (We unfortunately can not do this for you.) 
• Follow Up: Check with your administrator if you do not receive confirmation of your claim within a reasonable period.
