Can You Use a Sanford Health HSA for Massages?

Having a Health Savings Account (HSA) through Sanford Health can provide you with many benefits when it comes to managing your healthcare expenses. One common question that arises is whether you can use your HSA funds for massages. Let's explore this topic further.

While massages are typically considered a form of relaxation or pampering, they can also have health benefits, such as reducing stress and muscle tension. When it comes to using your HSA for massages, here are some key points to consider:

  • Not all HSA providers allow funds to be used for massages, so you should check with Sanford Health to see if it is an eligible expense.
  • If massages are deemed a qualified medical expense by the IRS and are prescribed by a healthcare provider to treat a specific medical condition, they may be eligible for HSA reimbursement.
  • It's essential to keep detailed records and obtain a written prescription from your healthcare provider if you plan to use your HSA for massages.

Remember that using your HSA for non-qualified expenses may result in tax penalties, so it's crucial to understand the rules and regulations set forth by the IRS and your HSA provider.
