Seven easy ways to use FSA funds This month

Seven easy ways to use FSA funds This month -

Avoid the last minute scramble to use all the funds in your flexible savings account (FSA ) after Christmas and start preparing to use the funds by the end of the year.

Here are seven simple ways to use FSA funds that you still have this month:

1. Obtain a prescription for over-the-counter medicines.

2. Submit receipts for health care services and prescription drugs.

3. Get a backup pair of eyeglasses or contact lenses.

4. Visit a health care provider for a medical appointment routine.

5. Get vaccinated against influenza or vaccination.

6. Schedule a visit acupuncture or chiropractic.

7. Buy medical equipment (can include pregnancy tests, dressings, blood pressure testing, etc.).

If you never seem to use all the funds in your FSA, consider switching to a health savings account (HSA) soon. HSA funds roll over year still unlike ASF funds, hence the rush.
