The coming $2500 Cap on Flexible Spending Accounts will hurt anyone with children who need special treatment, like orthodontal work (braces), orthopedic devices, out-of-pocket medical expenses, etc... because anything over $2500 will now be using post-taxed dollars as opposed to pre-tax dollars.

Also, you will not be able to pay for all of that OTC medication your family uses (Advil, cough medicine, prenatal vitamins, etc...) with FSA pre-tax dollars. It is being eliminated.

Thanks OBAMA for the health-care taxes! -sarc

Already received info from my insurance carrier that all OTC meds or drugs will need a prescription to be eligible for FSA, HSA or HRA spending accounts.

“Certain non-drug related products- bandages, wound care, contact lens solution, condoms and others continue to be eligible for reimbursement.”

All effective l/l/ll

Thanks, B.O. /sarc
