Simply write a check from your HSA to yourself and deposit it into your external personal checking or savings account. Note: You will be able to reimburse yourself for IRS-qualified medical expenses that you incur from the establishment date of your HSA. For example, if your HSA establishment date is January 1, you can reimburse yourself for expenses incurred on or after that date.

A limited FSA only allows reimbursement for preventive care, vision and dental expenses. A Dependent Care FSA allows reimbursement of dependent care expenses, such as daycare, incurred by eligible dependents.
All eligible out-of-pocket expenses incurred by you, your spouse and your qualified dependents can be reimbursed from your Healthcare FSA, even if your spouse and qualified dependents are not enrolled in your employer's health plan. Requests for reimbursements should be submitted prior to the end of your employer's run-out period or period of time for which a claim for an expense can be submitted for a plan year that has ended or after an employee has terminated.
Health Reimbursement Arrangements HRAs are employer-funded plans that reimburse employees for incurred medical expenses that are not covered by the company's standard insurance plan. Because the employer funds the plan, any distributions are considered tax deductible to the employer. Reimbursement dollars received by the employee are generally tax-free.
Unused HRA dollars may roll over from year to year, if allowed per plan rules, providing a potential incentive for employees to be better stewards of healthcare spending. If employment is terminated, the employer can choose to keep unused funds. Your employer funds your HRA pre-tax. Because the money allocated by your employer doesn't count as income, there are no tax implications. It's kind of like getting a raise.
Participating in an HRA is a great way to stretch your healthcare budget. An HRA usually sits alongside a health plan with higher deductible, coinsurance and copayment minimums; often these health plans have lower monthly medical premiums allowing you to save money. Some employers allow you to rollover and accumulate unused funds year after year.
The more you save in your HRA, the more funds you will have to pay eligible medical expenses when they occur. An employer may also make the HRA portable so that you can take the funds with you when your employment ends or when you retire. HRA funds must be used for healthcare expenditures only. Approved healthcare expenditures include those expenses identified by your employer as reimbursable from the HRA that are described as Medical Expenses in Section d of the IRS code.
These expenses may include deductibles, coinsurance, copayments, prescription drugs, vision care and dental care. Your employer may limit the expenses your plan reimburses; please consult with your Human Resources department for more information on what expenses are covered by your HRA. The IRS has a list of approved healthcare expenditures.
However, your employer might have additional limitations. Examples of expenses that are not eligible for reimbursement include:.
Medical expenses that do not meet IRS section d requirements e. Medical expenses incurred by you, your spouse or any eligible dependents prior to your effective date in the plan; and, Medical expenses that can be reimbursed to you through any other source such as group health insurance.
HRAs are only funded by your employer. Your employer contributes a determined amount to your HRA. Contact your HR department for specifics on your plan setup.
An HRA is designed to cover expenses not paid by your health plan including deductibles, coinsurance and copayments as well as many expenses your health plan may not cover.
