Health Savings Accounts (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) are tax-free accounts that can be used to pay for qualified health expenses (up to certain limits established by the IRS). These accounts are usually set up and managed by an HSA or FSA administrator, and you may have access to these accounts through your employer. HSAs are savings accounts linked to high-deductible health plans, while FSAs are usually offered through employers and reset each year. To learn more, please send an email to support@truemed.com.

HSA/FSA accounts were created so individuals could use pre-tax money to pay for expenses used to treat, mitigate, or prevent a diagnosed medical condition. Because HSA/FSAs use pre-tax money, you’re getting more purchasing power for your dollars. Rather than paying taxes on income and then spending it on health items, qualified customers can use pre-tax funds to invest in their health. An individual can contribute up to $4,150 pretax to their HSA per year, or $8,300 for a family (plus an additional $1,000 if you are at least 55 years old. Individuals can contribute up to $3,200 pretax to their FSA per year (with an additional $500 in employer contributions allowed). 

If you don't have an HSA/FSA card, you can pay with a credit or debit card to complete your eligible Almond Clear purchase using the Truemed checkout option. After you complete Truemed's qualification survey, you can submit payment via Truemed. Truemed will email your Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN) if you qualify along with detailed instructions on how to submit your payment to your HSA/FSA plan administrator for reimbursement. You will need to submit your LMN and Almond Clear purchase receipt to your HSA/FSA plan administrator for reimbursement from your HSA/FSA funds. If you do not qualify, you may cancel your order at any time prior to delivery. If you validly cancel your order, your refund will be submitted to Truemed. For more information please send an email to support@Truemed.com.

There is no cost to you, as long as you are shopping with a Truemed partner merchant. 

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 that 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. 

If eligible, the reference states that customers typically receive their Letter of Medical Necessity within 1-2 days.

No. You can’t apply your HSA/FSA funds to a past Almond Clear purchase. Please contact your HSA or FSA administrator directly to learn more about your eligibility for reimbursement.

HSA/FSA reimbursement is generally tied to US benefit plans. Confirm current availability directly with Truemed.
