Yes, psycho-educational testing and assessments are eligible for coverage under your Health Spending Account (HSA), provided they meet specific requirements. Here’s what you need to know to ensure your assessment qualifies.
1. Eligibility Requirements
To be eligible under the HSA, psycho-educational assessments must be conducted by a qualified medical professional. Accepted professionals typically include:
Registered Psychologists
Child Psychologists
School Psychologists
Each of these professionals is trained in psycho-educational evaluations and qualified to assess cognitive and learning abilities, making their services eligible for coverage.
2. What to Include with Your Claim
When submitting a claim for psycho-educational testing or assessments, ensure the receipt meets the following criteria:
Professional’s Credentials – The receipt must clearly display the practitioner’s credentials to confirm they are licensed to conduct such assessments.
No Results Required – You do not need to submit the assessment results with your claim. Only the receipt from the qualified professional is necessary for coverage.
Psycho-educational assessments are valuable tools for diagnosing learning disabilities, ADHD, and other cognitive conditions that may impact education and personal development. Because they are administered by qualified mental health professionals, they qualify as a medical expense under the HSA.
