Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are a powerful tool for employees to manage healthcare costs, but many don’t realize just how flexible these accounts can be. As an employer, helping your team understand the full scope of HSA-eligible expenses can dramatically improve benefit utilization, boost employee satisfaction, and reinforce your commitment to holistic wellness. Empower your workforce today by educating them about the many unexpected items eligible for HSA spending.
These everyday wellness products are HSA-approved and often overlooked:
Bonus eligible items include thermometers, electrolyte drink mix pouches, band-aids, heated foam rollers, foot massagers, blood pressure monitors, acne foaming cleansers, and ear wax removal systems. Please note that some items in the list above must be medically necessary to be reimbursed tax-free from an HSA. When employees understand the full range of HSA-eligible items, they’re more likely to use their accounts proactively and feel supported in their health journey. For employers, this means better engagement, smarter healthcare spending, and a more appreciated benefits package. Sharing these surprising examples is a simple yet impactful way to help your employees get the most out of their HSA because wellness goes far beyond the doctor’s office.
