Purely cosmetic chin implant doesn't qualify for HSA or FSA reimbursement under IRS rules. The exception: if your doctor documents a functional issue (like a deviated septum causing breathing problems), the medical portion may be eligible. Get that letter of medical necessity from your Massachusetts provider before filing any claims.
