Guest Nini Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 We have a participant who is requesting reimbursement from her health fsa for a bicycle. She has already been reimbursed for a recumbent bicycle - the medical necessity statement from her doctor has already been supplied for this item. We are questioning the reimbursement of the second request - possibly not a medical necessity for for recreational purposes. Any thoughts???

This is one that I would discuss with my contact at the employer. I would express my doubts about the reimbursement and get their feeling. I have found that no matter which way it ultimately goes, this is the way that shows the client how responsive you are. Personally, I find the second bike more likely to be personal.
