Can I use HSA for an Athlete Blood Test?

You may be able to use your HSA, FSA, or FRA for an Athlete Blood Test!  

When it comes to healthcare-related savings accounts, sometimes it feels like you are swimming in alphabet soup.  In case you need a refresher on what all those terms mean, check out this handy-dandy little chart from, you guessed it, the HR people (Society for Human Resource Management): HSA/FSA/HRA Comparison Chart

Setting aside the mumbo-jumbo, the good news is that your Athlete Blood Test may be covered by your plan. 

Here is how to get it done:

1. Paperwork check first: Confirm that your specific Heath Savings Account (HSA), Flexible Spending Account (FSA), or Health Reimbursement Account (Traditional HRA) covers an Athlete Blood Test. 

• The IRS sets the rules on these, but some details may vary by plans and providers.  
• This part is never easy but talk to your benefits administrator, regular health care provider, or your favorite tax attorney with questions about what is or isn’t covered.

• Back to paperwork: submit your reimbursement request pursuant to the terms of your plan.
