Can this device qualify for reimbursement under flexible/medical spending accounts (cafeteria plans)?

Yes, absolutely. You may use flex spending to purchase the RESPeRATE device. We have many customers that have done so.

For the past 6 years, I am suffering from high blood pressure. My doctor keeps increasing the dosage of drugs (Diovan 160Mg and Atenol 50Mg daily). Still there is no change in my blood pressure. Hence I am thinking of Resperate.

I understand that Resperate is approved by FDA for OTC sales and is eligible as reimbursement expense under FSA program. A doctors prescription is not required for the same.

However, my insurance company(AETNA) requires a Doctor's Note of Medical Necessity in-order to approve the FSA claim. Unfortunately my doctor will not provide the Note of Medical Necessity to purchase Resperate!

Please advice me:
- Whether I need to submit the Doctor's note of Medical Necessity for FSA approval?
- If so, please suggest a doctor who can provide a Note of Medical Necessity.

Thanks in advance for your help.
