Food and water is necessary to sustain human life. Why isn't food and water covered?
Whether something is necessary to sustain life is not the criteria used to decide if an HSA covers it or not.
- triceratops 6y agoI was talking about FSAs, not HSAs. > Whether something is necessary to sustain life is not the criteria used to decide if an HSA covers it or not. And I'm arguing that the criteria, whatever they are, are arbitrary and stupid and need to die in a fire. Along with the the whole concept of FSAs. Yeah food and water are essential, but baby formula isn't ham sandwiches or avocado toast. It's the only food that a baby can have - it's an essential health item. That an account meant to pay for health expenses doesn't allow it is downright dumb. Calling it a "flexible" spending account is downright Orwellian language. It's the opposite of flexible.
