We know firsthand how “priceless” the benefits of orthodontic treatment can be, from improving your oral health to giving you a huge boost in self-esteem and confidence.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>The good news is that your health savings account (HSA) or flexible savings account (FSA) can help make your orthodontic dreams come true.

You may contribute to an HSA only if you have a high-deductible health insurance plan (for 2022, the minimum deductible for a “high-deductible” plan is $1,400 for an individual and $2,800 for a family).\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>\u003Cstrong>FSA (Flexible Savings Account)\u003C/strong> – An FSA is an employer-sponsored health care benefit that allows employees to save untaxed dollars to cover the cost of qualified health care expenses.

By using untaxed dollars in your HSA or FSA to pay for your orthodontic treatment, you save money.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Visit Rapids Orthodontics anytime for a free consultation that includes a personalized treatment plan and financial consultation with affordable payment options. Once you know what the out-of-pocket costs for your orthodontic treatment will be, you can plan accordingly.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Many of our patients follow these steps:\u003C/p>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>Get an estimate from Rapids Orthodontics, so you know the total cost for treatment. \u003Cstrong>For example, let’s say your estimate is $7,000.\u003C/strong>\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Check your dental insurance plan (if you have one) to confirm your orthodontic benefits. Your plan may pay a percentage of the treatment cost, a set dollar amount toward the treatment cost, or not cover orthodontic treatment at all. \u003Cstrong>For example, let’s say your dental insurance pays for 50% of orthodontic treatment, up to $1,500. Based on the estimate above, your remaining cost would be $5,500.\u003C/strong>\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Use your HSA or FSA funds or finance with Rapids Orthodontics to help cover the rest. Some patients maximize their HSA or FSA contributions in advance if they know they or their children will need orthodontic treatment. You may also be able to set up recurring payments during the course of treatment, so the funds are not all removed at once.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Remember, FSA contributions must be used by December 31, but HSA contributions never expire. If you have both types of accounts, you will probably want to use your FSA funds first.\u003C/li>\n\u003C/ul>\n\u003Ch2>\u003Cstrong>No HSA or FSA account?
