Frequently asked questions
Is Progesterone and Testosterone Hormones FSA or HRA eligible too?
Generally yes, but like an HSA it requires a Letter of Medical Necessity. FSAs and HRAs use the same IRS Publication 502 rules, so you'll need an LMN tying Progesterone and Testosterone Hormones to a diagnosed condition.
Can I use my HSA debit card to pay for Progesterone and Testosterone Hormones?
Only with a Letter of Medical Necessity on file from your physician. Without an LMN this is a non-qualified distribution subject to income tax and a 20% penalty.
Do I need to keep a receipt for Progesterone and Testosterone Hormones?
Yes — for every HSA withdrawal the IRS requires documentation proving the expense was qualified. Keep itemized receipts for at least 3 years after the tax year.
Can I reimburse myself years later for Progesterone and Testosterone Hormones?
Yes — the IRS imposes no time limit on HSA reimbursements. As long as the expense was incurred after your HSA was established and you have documentation, you can reimburse yourself years or even decades later.
