Fitness trackers are wearable devices that monitor your health data, including heart rate, exercise duration, calorie burn, and sleep quality. These insights can help patients and their healthcare providers monitor data relevant to diagnosed medical conditions.

Are Fitness Trackers FSA Eligible?

Fitness trackers aren’t automatically HSA/FSA-eligible but can qualify with a Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN) from an independent licensed clinician. If an independent licensed clinician determines that a fitness tracker is medically necessary to treat, mitigate, or prevent a diagnosed medical condition, it may be eligible for qualified customers.

How To Get a Fitness Tracker With Your HSA/FSA
