Quick Reference

Over-the-counter (OTC) medicines and drugs, including eye drops like GenTeal, are considered qualified medical expenses. The CARES Act of 2020 removed the requirement for a prescription for OTC medicines to be eligible for reimbursement from HSAs, FSAs, and HRAs. These products are used to alleviate or treat a medical condition, such as dry eyes.

When It Qualifies

  • Must be used primarily to alleviate or prevent a physical or mental defect or illness.

When It Doesn't
