Use Your HSA or FSA for Coaching with Ilay Polat

Did you know your Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) may cover health coaching, stress support, or nutrition guidance?

At Polat Health, many of my 1:1 services may be eligible for reimbursement under “wellness coaching” or “nutritionist services” — especially if your provider accepts a Letter of Medical Necessity.

What’s Covered?

  • Health Coaching for stress, weight, or nutrition

  • Personalized wellness plans (if approved by your benefits provider)

  • Virtual sessions and follow-ups

  • Pre-assessments for HSA/FSA eligibility

  • Follow-up documentation support

  • Available Online

    Feeling stuck? Let’s uncover what’s blocking your wellness flow.

What to Ask Your Provider

  • Do you cover “health coaching,” “nutritionist services,” or “behavioral health coaching”?

  • Is a Letter of Medical Necessity required?

  • What documentation do I need to submit?

Step 1: Does This Apply to You?

Some HSA/FSA plans require that coaching or wellness services support a medical condition or medically necessary goal — such as improving:

  • Stress & anxiety

  • Chronic fatigue

  • Hormonal imbalances

  • Insulin resistance / prediabetes

  • Metabolic syndrome

  • Emotional eating

  • Weight-related health risks (e.g., joint pain, blood pressure, sleep issues)

If you’re unsure, you can use a BMI calculator as a starting point, but we believe health is more than a number.

Step 2: Check with Your Provider

Contact your HSA/FSA plan administrator and ask whether they cover wellness or weight-related services. Most plans approve if a doctor signs a Letter of Medical Necessity (see next step).

 

 

Step 3: Get Your Letter of Medical Necessity

Download and print the letter below, then take it to your physician.
If they determine that your health or symptoms could improve with coaching support, they can sign the form for your reimbursement approval.
