How to Buy a HSA Chair or FSA Chair at VarierChairs.com

Yes, you can purchase a chair with HSA or FSA funds. All Varier chairs are HSA-eligible and FSA-eligible, and we offer a simple way to make your HSA/FSA-funded purchase through a partnership with Flex.

Simple 5-Step Process

Our partnership with Flex makes it easy to use your HSA/FSA funds to invest in your health and wellness.

Choose Your HSA/FSA-Eligible Chair

  • Browse our curated collection of premium chairs. All of them are eligible for payment with or reimbursement from HSA and FSA accounts. Place your choice in the cart.
  • Our chairs are eligible because they address medical conditions such as chronic back pain, arthritis, or muscle tension, making them suitable candidates for health account reimbursement.

Start the Checkout Process with Flex

  • In the payment methods section at checkout, select “Flex | Pay with HSA/FSA”
  •  Click “PLACE ORDER.” This begins the integrated LMN (Letter of Medical Necessity) process facilitated seamlessly by Flex.

Complete the Medical Necessity Assessment

  • Complete a short, chat-based questionnaire to verify your eligibility and qualifying conditions (e.g., chronic back pain, arthritis).
  • Enter your payment information. You will not be charged at this point. Payment will only be processed once your LMN has been approved.
  • Don’t have enough money in your HSA/FSA account to pay for the whole purchase? No problem. Click the SPLIT PAYMENT link, and you can specify how much is charged to your FSA/HSA and to a separate credit card.
  • If approved, you’ll receive a digital LMN – no need for an in-person doctor visit.

Automatic Verification & Payment

  • Once the LMN is approved, Flex auto-substantiates your eligibility and processes your payment using your HSA or FSA funds. This reduces administrative hassle and eliminates the need to file separate reimbursement claims later.
  • If your cart includes both eligible and ineligible items, Flex will split the order automatically so you can pay for each with the appropriate method.

Receive Documentation and Complete Your Order

  • After purchase, you will receive three emails within approximately ten minutes: a standard order confirmation from Varier, an order confirmation from Flex, and a digital Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN) from Flex.
  • These can be used for record keeping or submitted to your account administrator if needed for reimbursement.

HSA & FSA Chair FAQs

Yes, you can use your Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) to purchase a chair, provided it’s considered medically necessary. You’ll need a Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN) to qualify the chair as an eligible medical expense.

An LMN is a document from a licensed healthcare provider stating that a product or service—like a chair—is needed to treat a specific medical condition. With an LMN, your chair becomes eligible for HSA/FSA reimbursement.

Varier partners with Flex to make this easy. During checkout, select “Flex | Pay with HSA/FSA,” and you’ll be guided through a short chat-based questionnaire. If your condition qualifies, you’ll receive a digital LMN without needing an in-person doctor visit.

Flex is a platform that allows you to use your HSA or FSA funds for eligible wellness products—like chairs—by verifying medical necessity and managing payment. It automates the LMN process and ensures your purchase complies with IRS rules for HSA-eligible chairs and FSA-approved chairs.

Common qualifying conditions include:

  • Chronic Back Pain
  • Arthritis
  • Post-injury Rehabilitation
  • Sciatica

If your condition is recognized as treatable by therapy, a LMN may be approved.

Yes. If your HSA or FSA balance doesn’t cover the full price of the chair, you can choose to split the payment between you HSA/FSA card and a regular credit card.

Absolutely. You’ll receive a HSA/FSA-compliant receipt and your Letter of Medical Necessity via email for your records or for submission to your benefits administrator, if needed.

Because all Varier chairs provide legitimate medical benefits, all chairs sold on Varierchairs.com are HSA eligible and FSA eligible.

Yes. The Flex process is HIPAA-compliant and fully secure. Varier does not receive your health questionnaire responses. Your health information is kept confidential and only used to determine eligibility for your HSA/FSA chair purchase.

Varier offers the world’s finest medically beneficial chairs—engineered for therapeutic results and long-lasting wellness. Our partnership with Flex makes it easier than ever to invest in your health with pre-tax dollars.
