We are a cash-based practice and do not take insurance
However, we do also accept Health Spending Accounts (HSA) and Flexable Spending Accounts (FSA)
-
A Flexible Spending Account (FSA) is a financial account offered by some employers that allows employees to set aside a portion of their pre-tax salary to cover qualified medical expenses. FSAs can be used to pay for various healthcare costs, such as doctor visits, prescription medications, and medical supplies. One key feature is that funds contributed to an FSA must be used within the plan year or a specified grace period, making it a helpful tool for managing healthcare expenses while providing potential tax savings.
-
An HSA, or Health Savings Account, is a tax-advantaged financial account designed to help individuals save and pay for qualified medical expenses. It offers tax benefits, such as tax-deductible contributions and tax-free withdrawals for medical expenses. HSAs are typically paired with high-deductible health insurance plans and allow individuals to save money for future healthcare costs while retaining control over their healthcare spending.
-
To check if you have an HSA (Health Savings Account) or an FSA (Flexible Spending Account), you can follow these steps:
1. Review Your Benefits Documentation: Start by checking any benefits documentation provided by your employer, such as an employee handbook, benefits guide, or enrollment materials. These documents typically outline the healthcare benefits available to you, including whether you have an HSA, FSA, or both.
2. Contact Your Human Resources Department: If you're unsure or couldn't find the information in your benefits documentation, reach out to your company's HR (Human Resources) department. They can provide details about the types of accounts you have and any contributions made on your behalf.
3. Check Your Pay Stub: Some employers may list deductions related to HSAs or FSAs on your pay stub. Look for any pre-tax deductions related to healthcare accounts.
4. Contact the Account Administrator: If you have an HSA or FSA, it may be administered by a financial institution or third-party administrator. Contact them directly to inquire about your account status, balance, and any associated details.
5. Review Previous Tax Documents: You can also check your previous year's tax returns or IRS Form W-2. If you contributed to an HSA or FSA in the past, it should be reported on these documents.
6. Access Online Account Portal: If your HSA or FSA has an online account portal, log in to view your account balance, transaction history, and other account details.
Remember that not all employers offer HSAs or FSAs, so it's possible that you may not have either of these accounts. Additionally, it's essential to understand the rules and limits associated with each type of account to maximize their benefits for healthcare expenses and potential tax savings.
