Can I Submit a Claim by Mail?

myHSA provides a seamless digital experience, whether you prefer using the app on your mobile device or the desktop version. Please note that we are a paperless company and do not accept claims submitted by mail.

If you need assistance using the digital platform, you can reach out to your Plan Admin, who can submit the claim on your behalf.


Using the myHSA App:

  1. Click the "Plus" Icon: Open the myHSA app and locate the plus icon at the bottom of your screen.

  2. Attach Receipts: Capture the receipts by either adding existing files or using the in-app camera to snap pictures of your receipts. Make sure your permissions are on in your settings so that the App can access your gallery and camera.

  3. Select Claim Details: Choose the claimant, category, and subcategory that best fit your expense. If uncertain about the category, you can open a live chat for quick assistance. If you do select the incorrect category, don't sweat it! Our adjudicators will move the claim to the correct category if it is eligible. Just pick which one you think is best.

  4. Enter Claim Amount: Input the specific amount you're seeking reimbursement for. Remember, if it's a claim after using insurance, only include the portion to be reimbursed. Ensure you attach the insurer's statement (Explanation of Benefits) displaying their payment details.

  5. Submit: Once all details are accurately entered, click the submit button. Voila! Your claim is on its way for processing.

Utilizing the Desktop Version:

  1. Access "Make a Claim": Log in to your myHSA account on the desktop and navigate to the "Make a Claim" section.

  2. Attach Receipts: Similar to the app, attach receipts by adding files or using the camera function to upload images. If you are submitting more than one service in one claim, you can follow the link below to an article on how to submit a claim with more than one service!

  3. Specify Claim Details: Choose the claimant, category, and subcategory that align with your expense. If in doubt, open a live chat and we can help you out in real time with your claim!

  4. Enter Claim Amount: Input the reimbursement amount you are seeking! If it's a claim you already submitted a portion to insurance, make sure you only enter the amount outstanding that you haven't been reimbursed and attach the insurer's statement displaying their Explanation of Benefits.

  5. Submit: Once all information is accurately filled in, hit the submit button to initiate the claim process. Your claim will go to our adjudication queue and be assessed as quickly as possible, usually within 1-3 days.
