Overview
Your organization has partnered with Blendable to offer you a Health Spending Account (HSA), giving you flexibility in how you use your health benefits.
An HSA allows you to be reimbursed for eligible medical expenses you’ve incurred, using funds provided by your employer.
When you incur an eligible expense, simply submit it through your Member Centre and, if approved, you'll be reimbursed by direct deposit.
The details
What’s an HSA?
An HSA is an account that holds funds that are available to you for the reimbursement of eligible medical and dental expenses.
You can submit claims for a wide variety of expenses. Reimbursement isn’t based on categories and associated limits. Instead you can use your available funds for eligible expenses as you choose. If you’d like to spend all of your available funds on prescription glasses, or physiotherapy or massage, you can!
What expenses are eligible?
Any expense that's eligible under the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) Medical Expense Tax Credit (METC) may be eligible for reimbursement from your HSA.
This includes dental expenses like cleanings, fillings, and orthodontics as well as medical expenses like prescription drugs, optometrist visits and physiotherapy.
If you're unsure whether an expense is eligible, check your Member Centre or visit the Blendable Help Centre for more information.
In addition to CRA guidelines, benefit periods (the window you have to incur claims) and available funds in your account will impact your reimbursement.
