Whether you want to access high-fidelity PPG data to track sleep, biometrics, and nervous system state, or interested in superior data to help build AI-powered predictive health models for physical and mental health monitoring, it’s just become a lot more affordable. Grab the 3- or 5-Pack Biostrap Kairos Evaluation Kit using pre-tax dollars.

What does it mean? 

When a wearable technology device like Kairos is “covered by HSA/FSA funds,” it means that you can use the funds from your HSA or FSA to purchase the device. Both HSAs and FSAs are tax-advantaged accounts that you can contribute to and use to pay for qualified medical expenses. Here’s a brief explanation of each:

Health Savings Account (HSA):

  • An HSA is a tax-advantaged savings account available for individuals with high-deductible health plans.
  • Contributions to an HSA are tax-deductible, and the funds can be withdrawn tax-free if used for qualified medical expenses.
  • HSA funds can be used for a wide range of medical expenses, including prescription medications, doctor visits, certain medical devices, and now the Biostrap Kairos.

Flexible Spending Account (FSA):

  • An FSA is another tax-advantaged account that allows employees to set aside a portion of their pre-tax earnings for qualified medical expenses.
  • FSA funds must be used within the plan year or a grace period, and they can cover eligible medical expenses such as co-pays, deductibles, certain medical products, and now the Biostrap Kairos.

Using HSA/FSA funds provides a financial benefit as contributions to these accounts are made with pre-tax dollars, effectively reducing the overall cost of the device.
