    Comprehensive List of Eligible and Ineligible Expenses

    Health Reimbursement Accounts (HRAs), Health Savings Accounts (HSAs), and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) can be great cost-savings tools. You can use them to reimburse yourself for eligible health care, dental, and dependent care expenses. But it's important to know which expenses can be reimbursed.

    It's also important to keep a record of the expenses you pay with your HSA, HRA, or FSA in case Cigna HealthcareSM asks you to prove that an expense was eligible for reimbursement from your account, or in case you are audited by the IRS. Examples of records you should keep include: receipts, Explanation of Benefits (EOB), medical diagnosis/physician diagnosis letters, and prescriptions.

    Important update: Due to the passage of the CARES Act, starting January 1, 2020 the following items are eligible:

    • Menstrual care/feminine hygiene products are now reimbursable.
    • Over-the-counter drugs no longer require a prescription to be reimbursed.

    Please note that the list is subject to change based on regulations, revenue rulings, and case law. The list is intended only as a general guideline for covered expenses. All items on the list may be subject to further restriction. An employer may limit which expenses are allowable under their FSA or HRA plan offering, such as dental or vision expenses, so please check your plan documents carefully.*

    Eligible Dependent Care FSA Expenses 

    A Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account (FSA) uses your contributions to cover dependent day care (usually child care) expenses. Contributions are not subject to federal taxes, and not subject to state taxes in most states. For details about state and/or local taxes, contact your personal tax advisor.

    Eligible dependents include children under 13 years of age, and a spouse or other dependent that is physically or mentally incapable of caring for themselves.

    How does it work?

    • During enrollment, estimate your annual out-of-pocket dependent day care expenses. This is your annual contribution to your Dependent Care FSA. The IRS allows a maximum of $5,000 for your annual contribution, but your employer may set a lower limit.
    • Divide your annual contribution by the number of paychecks you receive annually. This is how much money will be deducted from each paycheck and placed in your Dependent Care FSA. Remember, you're saving money because no federal (and most state/local) taxes are taken out of your contributions.
    • Pay your dependent day care expenses out of pocket, and then submit the expense to Cigna Healthcare for reimbursement using the Reimbursement Request Form.
    • You'll be reimbursed for eligible expenses using the dollars contributed to your FSA.

    Unused dollars cannot be carried over into the following year, so think carefully about how much to contribute.

    Which expenses are eligible?

    The following expenses are eligible for reimbursement under a Dependent Care FSA:

    • Au pair agency fees—required application or agency fees or deposits that are paid in connection with the actual placement of an au pair or other caregiver.
    • Expenses for a day care center, summer day camp, or preschool.
    • Expenses for an unlicensed day care center that cares for six or fewer children.
    • Expenses at an adult day care facility (but not expenses for overnight, nursing home facilities).
    • The cost of day care and housekeeping services in your home for your child or other qualifying individual.

    Which expenses are not eligible?

    The following expenses are not eligible for reimbursement under a Dependent Care FSA:

    • Day care for a child age 13 or older
    • Overnight summer camp (cannot prorate for the day portion)
    • Kindergarten or school tuition for a child age five and older
    • Expenses for any care provided to a qualifying dependent by another dependent or child under age 19
    • Housekeeping expenses not related to dependent day care
    • The expenses for which you claim a dependent day care tax credit on your federal income tax return
    • The registration fees paid for day care, summer camp, kindergarten, preschool, etc. The only exception is day camp or registration fees applied toward the first payable bill. These are eligible once the initial bill has been paid and the service has been provided.
    • The cost of meals while on field trips and outings or those meals included as part of the cost of such trips
    • Health care expenses for a dependent. These should be considered for reimbursement through a Health Care Flexible Spending Account.
    • Meals, snacks, food – these are not eligible if the cost is paid separately or itemized or expensed separately from tuition.

    Which receipts can I use?

    You must submit an original statement showing date of service and type of dependent day care expense for reimbursement. The following receipts will not be accepted:

    • Bankcard statements
    • Illegible charges
    • Estimates of expenses
    • Statement balances
    • Balance forward

    *These guidelines relate to expenses currently allowed and not allowed by the Internal Revenue Service as deductible medical expenses. This list is not necessarily inclusive or exclusive.
