LAKE FOREST, Calif., Nov. 15, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- ApriaDirect, Apria Healthcare's premium marketplace for the world's finest home medical brands and products, now accepts Flexible Spending Account (FSA) and Health Savings Account (HSA) debit cards for qualified retail purchases. With this change, Apria Healthcare aims to reduce the burden of healthcare spending for customers and improve the overall shopping experience.
High Deductible Health Plans (HDHP), which typically offer FSA or HSA programs, make up almost half of all employer-based health coverage and nearly all individual policies. HDHPs are shifting the financial burden of out-of-pocket medical expenses, forcing individuals to take a closer look at their healthcare spending. These plans are driving the healthcare consumerism movement and putting a spotlight on FSA and HSA payment options where consumers can use pre-tax contributions.
In response to these expanding employee financial benefits, ApriaDirect saw an opportunity. "ApriaDirect is part of a limited number of select online stores currently accepting FSA and HSA cards, providing consumers a convenient way to purchase eligible home medical equipment and supplies while shopping online," said Lori Raygoza, Vice President, eCommerce.
ApriaDirect.com, offers consumers a carefully selected portfolio of the world's finest CPAP and respiratory products, independent living and bath safety products, as well as personal care, incontinence and mobility accessories. Visitors enjoy a premium shopping experience with the most preferred products at highly competitive prices every day.
