Kinetic Arm HSA/FSA Eligibility | Truemed Guide
Is Kinetic Arm HSA/FSA Eligible? How Truemed Works
Yes—select Kinetic Arm products may be HSA/FSA-eligible for qualified customers with a Truemed Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN).
Through Kinetic Arm's partnership with Truemed, qualified customers may be able to use Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) funds toward eligible Kinetic Arm products.
The process is designed to be straightforward: during checkout, customers complete a secure clinical intake form that is reviewed by an independent licensed practitioner. If the practitioner determines that the purchase qualifies as medically necessary for the customer's individual circumstances, a Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN) is issued to support HSA/FSA use.
Eligibility is not automatic or guaranteed. It is determined individually through Truemed's independent clinical review, and the customer's HSA/FSA administrator retains final authority over reimbursement.

What Does Kinetic Arm's Partnership With Truemed Mean?
Kinetic Arm partnered with Truemed to help qualified customers navigate HSA/FSA eligibility for select products.
Rather than Kinetic Arm making an eligibility determination, Truemed manages the independent clinical review and documentation process.
Through the partnership, customers may be able to:
- Complete a secure clinical intake
- Have their information reviewed by an independent licensed practitioner
- Receive a Letter of Medical Necessity when appropriate
- Pay with an HSA/FSA card when applicable
- Use a personal payment method and request reimbursement when applicable
The important distinction is that HSA/FSA eligibility is specific to the individual and the qualifying purchase.
A Kinetic Arm product should not be assumed to qualify for every customer simply because another customer received an LMN.

What Is Truemed?
Truemed is a healthcare technology platform that works with participating brands to help qualified customers determine whether certain purchases may qualify for HSA/FSA spending.
For products requiring medical-necessity documentation, Truemed connects customers with independent licensed practitioners who review a private health intake.
According to Truemed's eligibility guidance, the process generally works like this:
- The customer completes a health intake.
- An independent licensed clinician reviews the information.
- The clinician determines whether the specific purchase qualifies as medically necessary for that customer's health circumstances.
- If the purchase qualifies, the customer receives a Letter of Medical Necessity.
- The LMN supports HSA/FSA payment or reimbursement, subject to the customer's plan rules.
Not every customer or purchase is guaranteed to qualify.
What Is an HSA?
A Health Savings Account (HSA) is a tax-advantaged account available to eligible individuals enrolled in qualifying high-deductible health plans.
HSA funds can generally be used for qualified medical expenses, subject to applicable IRS requirements.
One key feature of an HSA is that unused funds generally remain in the account rather than expiring at the end of each year.
That makes an HSA different from many FSA arrangements.
What Is an FSA?
A Flexible Spending Account (FSA) is an employer-sponsored account that allows employees to set aside pre-tax funds for eligible healthcare expenses.
FSA rules differ from HSA rules, particularly regarding unused balances.
Depending on the employer's plan, unused FSA funds may be subject to a carryover provision, grace period or forfeiture.
Because plan designs vary, customers should check their specific FSA documents rather than assuming all unused funds expire on December 31.
Can HSA/FSA Funds Be Used for Kinetic Arm?
Qualified customers may be able to use HSA/FSA funds for eligible Kinetic Arm products through Truemed when a Letter of Medical Necessity is issued.
That qualification is important.
Some products that would otherwise be considered general-purpose purchases may become eligible medical expenses for a specific individual when an independent licensed practitioner determines they are medically necessary for that person's qualifying health circumstances.
Truemed explains that an LMN documents that individual clinical determination.
The Kinetic Arm K2 BioKinetic® Sleeve may therefore be eligible for HSA/FSA purchase through Truemed's independent review process, rather than because Kinetic Arm itself makes a blanket medical-eligibility claim.

What Is a Letter of Medical Necessity?
A Letter of Medical Necessity, commonly called an LMN, is documentation from a licensed healthcare practitioner establishing why a particular product or service is medically necessary for an individual's specific health circumstances.
For many products that are not automatically considered qualified medical expenses, an LMN can be important documentation supporting HSA/FSA eligibility.
Truemed's independent practitioners determine whether issuing an LMN is appropriate after reviewing the customer's clinical intake.
According to Truemed's current eligibility guidance, LMNs issued through its platform are typically valid for 12 months.
However, the customer's HSA/FSA administrator retains final authority regarding reimbursement.
How Does Kinetic Arm Fit Into the Process?
Kinetic Arm created the K2 BioKinetic® Sleeve, built on patented MuscleWeb® technology—the world's first dynamic dual-joint arm stabilizer for the shoulder and elbow.
Unlike traditional compression sleeves that primarily rely on fabric compression around part of the arm, Kinetic Arm provides Dynamic Arm Support across the shoulder and elbow as one connected system.
Its patented MuscleWeb® architecture is designed to provide movement-responsive external support during repetitive arm activity while preserving functional movement.
Athletes and active individuals use Kinetic Arm during demanding arm actions such as:
- Throwing
- Swinging
- Serving
- Hitting
- Shooting
- Repetitive overhead movement
- Other high-demand arm activity

Importantly, Kinetic Arm's product positioning and Truemed's HSA/FSA determination are separate.
Kinetic Arm explains how its Dynamic Arm Support technology works.
Truemed's independent practitioner network determines whether a particular customer's purchase qualifies for an LMN based on that individual's circumstances.
How to Use HSA/FSA Funds for Kinetic Arm Through Truemed
The current Kinetic Arm checkout process makes it possible to determine eligibility as part of the purchase experience.
Step 1: Choose an Eligible Kinetic Arm Product
Start by selecting the Kinetic Arm product appropriate for your size and activity.
The K2 BioKinetic® Sleeve collection includes Dynamic Arm Support options designed to support the shoulder and elbow during repetitive athletic movement.
Step 2: Select Truemed at Checkout
Add your eligible product to your cart and begin checkout.
Select the HSA/FSA (Truemed) payment option.
If Shop Pay automatically opens, you may need to choose guest checkout to view the Truemed option.
Step 3: Complete the Clinical Intake
Complete Truemed's secure health survey.
The intake asks for information relevant to determining whether your purchase may qualify based on your individual circumstances.
Step 4: Independent Practitioner Review
An independent licensed practitioner reviews the information you provide.
This clinical review—not Kinetic Arm—determines whether a Letter of Medical Necessity is appropriate.
Step 5: Complete Your Purchase
Depending on the checkout flow and your account, you may be able to:
- Pay using your HSA/FSA card, or
- Pay with a personal card and pursue HSA/FSA reimbursement
Step 6: Keep Your Documentation
If you qualify, Truemed provides an LMN that can support the eligible purchase.
If reimbursement is required, Truemed provides instructions for submitting an HSA/FSA reimbursement request.
Customers should retain their:
- Letter of Medical Necessity
- Purchase receipt
- Reimbursement documentation
- Any records requested by their HSA/FSA administrator
How Much Could You Save Using HSA/FSA Funds?
Qualified customers can save approximately 30% on average when using HSA/FSA funds, although actual tax savings vary based on individual circumstances.
Why?
HSA and FSA contributions generally use pre-tax dollars. As a result, eligible purchases made with those funds can reduce the effective after-tax cost compared with purchasing the same item entirely with after-tax income.
The actual benefit depends on factors including:
- Federal tax rate
- State tax treatment
- Payroll taxes
- Individual financial circumstances
The 30% figure should therefore be understood as an average, not a guaranteed discount.
Truemed is for qualified customers. HSA/FSA tax savings vary. Learn more at truemed.com/disclosures.
Who May Qualify for Kinetic Arm HSA/FSA Eligibility?
There is no universal checklist that guarantees qualification.
Eligibility is determined based on the customer's individual health circumstances and the independent practitioner's assessment of medical necessity.
Truemed's current guidance explains that general wellness alone is not sufficient for products requiring an LMN. The practitioner must determine that the purchase is medically necessary in relation to a specific qualifying health condition.
Because that determination is individualized, two customers purchasing the same product may receive different eligibility outcomes.
The appropriate way to find out is to complete the Truemed clinical intake.

Can I Buy Kinetic Arm With an HSA Card?
Qualified customers may be able to pay for eligible Kinetic Arm products using an HSA card through Truemed.
At checkout, select the HSA/FSA Truemed option and follow the eligibility process.
The exact payment process can depend on your account and eligibility.
Can I Buy Kinetic Arm With an FSA Card?
Qualified customers may also be able to use FSA funds toward eligible Kinetic Arm purchases through Truemed.
Depending on the applicable checkout process and FSA plan, that may involve direct payment or purchasing with a personal card and submitting documentation for reimbursement.
Your plan administrator has final authority over reimbursement.
Can I Submit a Kinetic Arm Purchase for HSA/FSA Reimbursement?
If your purchase qualifies through Truemed and you receive the required documentation, reimbursement may be possible.
Truemed states that customers submitting reimbursement generally need both:
- Their Letter of Medical Necessity
- Their purchase receipt
Truemed's reimbursement guide explains the current submission process.
Requirements can vary by administrator, so retain all documentation associated with your purchase.
Can I Use HSA/FSA Funds for My Child's Kinetic Arm?
Potentially.
Kinetic Arm's current HSA/FSA information page explains that customers may be able to use HSA/FSA funds for a qualifying dependent if the dependent is approved through Truemed.
Eligibility is still subject to independent clinical review and is not guaranteed.
Current eligibility for dependents under 18 may also be limited based on Truemed guidelines.
Parents should therefore complete the eligibility process rather than assuming a youth K2 purchase will qualify.
Is Every Kinetic Arm Product Automatically HSA/FSA Eligible?
No.
The safest way to think about eligibility is:
Select products may qualify for HSA/FSA plans with a Truemed LMN.
Look for the Truemed option on the relevant Kinetic Arm product or checkout page and complete the required eligibility process.
Do not assume that every product, accessory or purchase qualifies simply because it is sold by Kinetic Arm.
Does Truemed Guarantee HSA/FSA Eligibility?
No.
Truemed states that eligibility is determined case by case by an independent licensed clinician.
Receiving an LMN supports HSA/FSA use, but the customer's plan administrator ultimately determines whether a reimbursement claim is accepted.
