Don't see your product listed? That doesn't mean it's not eligible. Crates can issue LMNs for any eligible wellness product β€” you're not limited to what's listed here. If a wellness product can be connected to treating, preventing, or managing a health condition, it may qualify. Just submit it through Crates and we'll assess eligibility.

What Makes a Product Eligible?

Under IRS rules, a product becomes HSA/FSA eligible when it's used for "diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease." For wellness products, this means:

  1. You have a health condition (or risk factors for one) - like high blood pressure, obesity, diabetes, anxiety, chronic pain, sleep disorders, etc.

  2. The product helps manage that condition - like a gym membership for cardiovascular health, or a fitness tracker for monitoring heart rate

  3. A licensed healthcare provider (MD, DO, PA, NP) documents this connection β€” that's your Letter of Medical Necessity

Common Conditions That Qualify

You don't need to be seriously ill. Many everyday health concerns make products eligible:

  • High blood pressure or family history of heart disease

  • BMI over 25 (overweight) or BMI over 30 (obese)

  • Type 2 diabetes or pre-diabetes

  • High cholesterol

  • Anxiety, depression, or chronic stress

  • Chronic back pain, arthritis, or joint issues

  • Sleep disorders or insomnia

  • ADHD

  • Chronic fatigue

  • Asthma or respiratory conditions
