A Wellness Spending Account (WSA) is all about supporting your overall wellbeing—whether that means physical health, personal growth, or life balance. If you're nearing the end of the year with a remaining WSA balance, here are some ideas to help you use it. Just remember, always check your list of covered items, and if there's something you’re interested in that isn’t listed, talk to your Plan Administrator to see if it might qualify. They can add it if it fits with their intention of providing a wellness account!


1. Sporting Goods for You and the Family

Thinking of trying a new sport or getting active with the family? Use your WSA to pick up equipment and gear for a fresh activity that everyone can enjoy together.

2. Gym Membership

Start that January 1 resolution early! A gym membership is a great way to set yourself up for success with your fitness goals, and your WSA can help cover the cost.

3. Holiday Prep with Cleaning Services

Get ready for the holiday season by refreshing your home with cleaning services. A clean space can help you feel relaxed and prepared for festive gatherings.

4. Invest in Education

If your resolution is to expand your skills, why wait? Your WSA can help you get started now. Look into courses, workshops, or certifications you’ve been curious about to start the new year with fresh knowledge and expertise!

5. Health Essentials: Vitamins and Supplements

Take proactive steps for your health by stocking up on vitamins or supplements. Use your WSA to cover these wellness essentials and get a head start on feeling your best.

6. Pick Up a New Hobby

Whether it’s painting, gardening, or woodworking, use your WSA to buy the supplies needed to start a new hobby that you can enjoy all year long.

7. Support for Your Busy Life: Child Care Expenses

If life’s getting hectic, your WSA can help you with steady, occasional or even one-off child care expenses. Take a little extra time for yourself or your work while ensuring your children are well taken care of.

Make the Most of Your WSA!

Using your WSA for wellness and lifestyle expenses can make a huge difference in your daily life. Just remember to check your plan’s specific guidelines to confirm eligibility and ask your Plan Administrator about any unlisted items you’re curious about. Here's to making every dollar count toward your wellbeing!
