Most people don't realize their Health Savings Account or Flexible Spending Account can cover far more than doctor visits and prescription. If you have a musculoskeletal condition tied to prolonged sitting, a standing desk or ergonomic chair may qualify as a medical expense, and for many people, that means paying tax-free with HSA or FSA funds.
Qualified customers may save about 30% on average by using pre tax HSA/FSA funds for eligible purchases. Savings vary based on your tax situation and plan rules.
What Makes a Standing Desk or Office Chair HSA/FSA Eligible?
HSA and FSA funds can generally be used for qualified medical expenses. For products like standing desks and ergonomic office chairs, eligibility is not automatic. The product must be connected to a specific medical need, and a licensed clinician must determine that it is medically necessary.
That is where Truemed helps. During the qualifying checkout process, Truemed connects customers with an independent licensed clinician who reviews their health survey. If approved, the clinician issues an LMN that supports HSA/FSA payment or reimbursement.

How to Pay with HSA/FSA
We have partnered with Truemed to make the process simple for qualified customers. Depending on the checkout path available for your purchase, you may be able to use your funds in one of two ways:
1. Pay directly at checkout
At checkout, select Truemed as the HSA/FSA payment option when available. You will complete a brief health survey before payment is finalized. An independent licensed provider will review your responses. If approved, your LMN is generated and your HSA/FSA card can be used for the eligible purchase.
2. Pay with a regular card and request reimbursement
For eligible purchases made through Truemed’s qualifying flow, you may be able to pay with a regular credit or debit card and submit for reimbursement afterward. If approved, use your Truemed LMN and itemized merchant receipt to submit a reimbursement claim to your HSA/FSA administrator.
Your Truemed survey and LMN need to align with the qualifying purchase date. Reimbursement approval is determined by your HSA/FSA administrator and may depend on your plan rules and documentation requirements.
The Truemed flow is built into checkout for participating products, so you do not need to start at a separate website.
