HSA and FSA Eligible Recovery Products: How to Use Your Funds Before They Expire

HSA and FSA Eligible Recovery Products: How to Use Your Funds Before They Expire

Every Chirp product is HSA/FSA eligible — the Wheel, the Halo, the RPM, the Contour, the Foot Roller and the Sole Vibe. If you have an FSA, that money usually disappears on December 31, so this is worth ten minutes of your attention before the year runs out.

The key difference: HSA funds roll over year to year. FSA funds usually do not — most plans use it or lose it on December 31, with some offering a short grace period or a small carryover. Check your plan, then spend accordingly.

Why recovery products qualify

HSA and FSA funds cover medical care, and that extends well beyond prescriptions. Products used for pain relief and physical therapy at home generally qualify — which is where back rollers, muscle stimulators, massage devices and foot care sit.

You can pay with your HSA or FSA card directly at checkout on gochirp.com. No forms, no reimbursement paperwork, no waiting.

Timing it right

  • Check your balance now, not in the third week of December.
  • Know your deadline. Most FSAs end December 31. Some plans add a grace period into March or allow a limited carryover.
  • Order with room to spare. The purchase date is what counts, but shipping windows get tight late in December.
  • Keep your receipt in case your plan administrator asks for documentation.
