If you have a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA), you may be wondering if you can use it to buy hearing aids. We’re happy to say that you can! And even better, all LINNER hearing aids are eligible for purchase using HSA/FSA funds, helping make hearing healthcare more affordable.
What Are HSA and FSA Accounts?
Many people have access to an FSA or HSA through their employer or health insurance plan. These accounts allow you to set aside pre-tax money to cover qualifying healthcare expenses, including hearing aids.
-
Flexible Spending Account (FSA): Offered by many employers, an FSA lets you allocate pre-tax income to cover eligible healthcare expenses. It’s a great way to save money, but be aware that FSAs are “use it or lose it,” meaning you need to spend the funds within the calendar year.
-
Health Savings Account (HSA): HSAs are often tied to high-deductible health insurance plans and can be opened independently through a bank. Unlike FSAs, HSAs don’t have an expiration date—you can roll over funds year to year. Contributions are tax-deductible, and any withdrawals for qualifying medical expenses, such as hearing aids, are tax-free.
LINNER Hearing Aids and HSA/FSA Eligibility
The good news is that all LINNER hearing aids—including our PLANET, Mars, Saturn, Venus, Mercury, and Nova series—qualify for purchase through both HSA and FSA accounts. Whether you’re looking for discreet, in-the-ear models or behind-the-ear designs with Bluetooth functionality, LINNER products are a smart and accessible choice for managing your hearing health.
Using Your HSA or FSA for LINNER Hearing Aids
Before making a purchase, it’s always a good idea to confirm with your HSA or FSA administrator that hearing aids are considered an eligible expense, but in most cases, they are.
Here's how to use your HSA/FSA to buy LINNER hearing aids:
- Check Your Balance: Make sure you have enough funds in your account to cover the cost of the hearing aids.
- Choose Your LINNER Hearing Aid: LINNER offers a variety of models to fit your lifestyle and budget, including the Bluetooth-enabled Mars, the discreet Saturn, and the feature-packed Mercury.
- Pay With Your HSA/FSA Card: At checkout, simply use your HSA or FSA debit card to complete the purchase. If you don’t have a card, you can also pay out of pocket and submit a reimbursement claim to your account.
