Dermatology services cover a wide range of skin-related treatments. This article explains the eligibility of dermatology services under your Health Spending Account (HSA).


HSA Eligibility for Dermatology Services

Dermatology services can be eligible for HSA reimbursement, but there are important conditions to note:

  1. Medical Necessity: The dermatology service must be medically necessary and not purely cosmetic.

  2. Required Documentation: A letter from your medical practitioner must accompany the claim, stating that:

    • The treatment is not purely cosmetic

    • It is treating a specific medical condition, or

    • It is medically necessary in some way

  3. Ineligible Procedures: Cosmetic procedures are not eligible for HSA reimbursement.

Documentation Requirements

For your HSA claim, you need to provide:

  1. Service receipt including:

    • Patient's name

    • Date of service

    • Practitioner's name and credentials

    • List of services and their charges

    • Proof of payment

  2. Letter from your medical practitioner stating the medical necessity of the treatment

Important Caveat

Always double-check your specific plan details on your dashboard to confirm dermatology service eligibility. HSA plans may vary, and it's crucial to verify your coverage and the list of covered items.
