Please Note: As of January 1, 2011, FSA, HRA and HSA funds may no longer be used to purchase over-the-counter medications unless they are prescribed by a health care professional.

The IRS requires select retailers – including pharmacies, supermarkets, grocery, discount stores, wholesale clubs and mail-order merchants, to identify health-related items at the point of sale using the Inventory Information Approval System (IIAS). IIAS makes it possible to identify Card transactions at the check-out counter. This insures that you can only use the Card for eligible items, and does away with the need to submit receipts for verification after the purchase.
