Accupressure Covered Expense

[Guest DK Ellerson]

I know that Acupuncture is an allowable expense under the Health FSA, so would Accupressure fall into the same category and be eligible for reimbursement?

Thanks

Have you checked IRS Publication 502?

[Guest DK Ellerson]

Yes. Pub. 502 only mentions Acupuncture, nothing about Accupressure. I'm inclined to believe that if it was prescribed by a physician to treat a specific medical condition, it would be allowable.

Thanks.
