FAQs about Flex

Why use your HSA or FSA for skincare?

Since many skin conditions require ongoing treatment and maintenance, using these accounts for clinical-grade approved products helps you prioritize your skin health while maximizing your health care dollars.

What is Flex and how does Glowbar's partnership with Flex work?

Flex is our HSA/FSA payment partner that enables you to purchase qualifying skincare products with pre-tax health care dollars. This partnership allows you to use your HSA/FSA accounts when buying certain clinical-grade products, and Flex sends both your itemized receipt and Letter of Medical Necessity (when applicable) for your records.

Is a prescription required for HSA/FSA purchases?

No prescription is required. However, certain products need a Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN) and you will be guided through a chat-based consultation with Flex during check-out to check eligibility and generate this documentation.

What is a Letter of Medical Necessity or LMN?

Some products require a Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN) from a licensed healthcare provider to provide context to insurance around the usage of a specific product or treatment, stating that the expense is necessary to treat or manage a specific medical condition. Flex will provide you with this letter.

There's no fee for a LMN when purchasing online. A LMN in-studio costs $10 and is valid for 12 months.

Does one LMN cover all of my products?

No. For a LMN to be compliant, the documentation is required to be as specific as possible in regard to which product is being recommended and which concern/condition that product is intended to treat. However, if you need an additional LMN for a different product, please reach out to support@withflex.com

Why is my HSA/FSA card being declined?

The most common reason is insufficient account balance. HSA/FSA cards function as debit cards and require adequate funds to process. Contact your HSA/FSA administrator to verify your available balance before trying again.

What if my HSA/FSA administrator denies my claim?

First, verify the product's eligibility with your specific HSA/FSA provider before purchasing, as guidelines vary. If you believe your claim was incorrectly denied, forward your provider's response to support@withflex.com for assistance. Keep in mind that employer-sponsored FSAs may have stricter eligibility requirements than IRS standards.

When will I receive my itemized receipt?

Flex emails your itemized receipt within two hours of purchase. If you do not see it within that time period, check your spam/junk folder for an email from notifications@withflex.com.
