Maximizing Your Tax-Free Potential
A dedicated search engine for FSA/HSA eligible expenses
Our Mission
Can I Expense This? is a dedicated search engine designed to help US taxpayers navigate IRS Publication 502 and maximize their FSA/HSA benefits. We structure unstructured data to help users utilize their tax-advantaged health spending accounts efficiently—before those funds expire.
Every year, millions of Americans forfeit unused FSA funds simply because they don't know what qualifies as an eligible expense. We're here to change that by providing clear, accurate, and actionable eligibility information for thousands of products.
What We Do
Structured Data
We aggregate and organize eligibility information from IRS guidelines, FSA/HSA administrators, and official sources into a searchable database.
IRS Compliance
Our database is built from IRS Publication 502 and official FSA/HSA guidelines to ensure accuracy and compliance.
Clear Eligibility Status
Every product is categorized as Eligible, Conditionally Eligible (requires LOMN), or Not Eligible—so you know exactly where you stand.
LOMN Templates
For conditionally eligible items, we provide Letter of Medical Necessity templates to help you work with your healthcare provider.
Why We Built This
FSA and HSA accounts offer significant tax advantages—typically saving users 20-37% on eligible purchases. However, navigating eligibility requirements has traditionally been confusing and time-consuming.
IRS Publication 502 spans dozens of pages of dense text. FSA store websites are limited in scope. And many people don't realize that with proper documentation, high-value items like sleep trackers, standing desks, and therapeutic devices can qualify for reimbursement.
We built Can I Expense This? to be the single source of truth for FSA/HSA eligibility—a utility-first tool that helps you make informed purchasing decisions and maximize your tax-free benefits.
