FSA Eligibility List


The FSA Eligibility List is a list of tens of thousands of medical items that have been determined to be qualified expenses for flexible spending accounts in the United States. The U.S. Internal Revenue Service outlines eligible product categories in its published guidelines. These guidelines are interpreted by the Special Interest Group for IIAS Standards to form eligibility criteria for medical expenses. These criteria provide official interpretation of U.S. Internal Revenue Service guidance regarding eligible product categories.
