Costs associated with the service of an Obstetrician are an eligible expense. Required supporting documentation would include a copy of your EOB or itemized statement of the birth expenses.
(Note: Expenses paid prior to the birth are not eligible until the baby is born and services have been processed through insurance. This helps avoid overlapping of plan years and potential overpayments.)
A health care professional must provide evidence of medical necessity for the cost of a nutritionsit or nutritional supplements to be an eligible medical expense. Include evidence of medical necessity by providing a Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN) that specifically identifies the recommendation and that the expense is for treatment of a medical condition with the request for reimbursement.
Costs associated with nursing homes are an eligible expenses as long as the primary purpose of the stay is to receive medical care.
(Note: If the primary purpose for nursing home services is other than medical care, only those expenses directly related to medical services received are eligible expenses.)
Costs associated with nursing care of an otherwise healthy infant are not an eligible expense.
