much they covers first, then put lots of money in FSA.
otherwise, 500-1000 is enough.

发帖数: 3236 | 14 How much do you guys put on FSA?
－－depends on your need and and your insurance plan (copay amount etc).
can it be used to pay co-pay of sheng xiao hai?
---Sure. But first be clear how much you need to pay for Sheng Xiao hai. I
need to pay nothing to the hospital for Shengxiahai. But my insurance does
not cover breast pump, which is qualified to use FSA money.
what other good methods to use up FSA?
---You can buy luxury brand sunglasses (get a prescription of course).

发帖数: 299 | 16 Day Care 的那个叫Chilidcare Flexible Spending Account
看病的那个叫Medical Flexible Spending Account 或者就叫FSA
后者除了付看医生的co-pay还可以付看牙的费用（保险不报的部分），eye exam,
prescription eyeglasses等等，还有血糖仪，first aid kit等药店可以买的，具体看
保险公司的说明。 |
