FSA/HSA Eligible Incrediwear Recovery Products
At Incrediwear, we understand that taking care of your health involves proactive steps and efficient cost-management measures. One such measure can be effectively leveraging Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) to facilitate your wellness journey.
In this article, we aim to guide you through understanding these tax-advantaged accounts and how they can be utilized to purchase our FSA/HSA-eligible recovery products.
What Are HSAs and FSAs?
HSAs and FSAs are special types of U.S.-based accounts that allow you to reserve a part of your pre-tax income for qualified medical expenses, thereby making these funds income tax-free.
A Health Savings Account (HSA) is generally available to individuals enrolled in a High-Deductible Health Plan (HDHP). The key feature of HSAs is that unused funds can roll over from year to year, enabling healthcare savings over time. HSAs also provide autonomy in managing contribution amounts.
On the other hand, a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) is often set up through your employer. Like HSAs, FSAs let you allocate pre-tax income towards eligible healthcare expenses.
However, one important thing to remember about FSAs is the term "use-it-or-lose-it." Generally, you must use these funds within the same plan year, with some accounts offering a grace period or a small rollover into the next year.
Understanding these options helps you plan better for out-of-pocket medical costs that aren't covered by regular health insurance.
The Bridge Between HSAs/FSAs and Healthcare
HSAs and FSAs serve as an instrumental bridge, helping to offset healthcare expenses and provide a form of financial cushion. These include — but aren't limited to — premiums, copays, and specific out-of-pocket expenses.
Eligible expenses that can be catered to with HSA or FSA funds encompass a wide variety of services and products, ranging from prescription medications to dental and vision expenses and certain over-the-counter items and wellness products.
This is where our Incrediwear products come into play. As you focus on maintaining your well-being, the affordability of wellness and recovery products is enhanced through these tax-advantaged accounts.

An important detail to note for HSA members is that while FSA deductions are pre-set at the beginning of a plan year, the annual HSA contribution limit is shaped by factors such as your HDHP coverage (individual or family), age (those aged 55 or older may be eligible for a catch-up contribution), and the limit set by the IRS for the specific tax year.
Making the Most of Your Funds
When purchasing with your FSA or HSA funds, it's important to adopt a strategy requiring careful consideration of your immediate and future healthcare needs. This strategy should be driven by your need to optimize healthcare expenses while maintaining your physical well-being.
A crucial step is understanding the terms of your respective health savings account. For instance, keep the end of the enrollment period in mind for an FSA to avoid losing unused funds, while for HSAs, remember the year-to-year rollover feature allows you to plan and save for future medical expenses.
It's also essential to know that while HSAs carry over unused funds, offering a cushion for future healthcare expenses, FSAs typically operate under the use-it-or-lose-it principle. However, some FSAs provide a grace period or allow some unused funds to be carried over to the next plan year.
Reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses incurred from purchasing qualified items is straightforward. If you have an FSA or HSA card, you can use it like a regular debit card. If your FSA or HSA does not provide a debit card, you can claim reimbursement from your FSA or HSA provider by submitting your receipt.
