Over-the-Counter Items Covered under Healthcare
Due to the increased number of prescription drugs that are becoming available as over-the-counter expenses, the IRS has issued new guidance on over-the-counter and non-prescription medications.
Both over-the-counter and non-prescription medications are now excludable from your income and may be considered a covered medical expense through the Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA's). Items related to general health will not be eligible.To substantiate the expenses you will need to submit the cash register receipt that clearly shows the product, the date of service, and the amount charged with a completed claim form.
The following is a list of items that are covered followed by a list of items not covered. This is not an exclusive list. If you have any questions regarding the type of expense please contact Sheakley Pension Administration, Inc. toll free at 800-877-6630 or e-mail: 125@sheakley.com.
