If you're enrolled in a health savings account (HSA) or flexible spending account (FSA) through your insurance, you can use the funds for many medical expenses — not only for you and your family, but also for work-related expenses. Because the stethoscope is an essential medical tool for healthcare professionals, devices from Eko may be eligible for purchase/reimbursement. You may also be able to use continuing medical education (CME) funds or get reimbursed by your employer for testing a new stethoscope.

Reimbursement Types

CME
Healthcare professionals who require continuing medical education (CME) credits for maintaining licensure or improving skills are typically provided with funds by employers, often as part of a monthly salary or reimbursement following CME activities. In most cases, CME funds can be used for testing new medical devices.
Employer Reimbursements
Health systems often provide employees with annual budgets or stipends for work-related expenses. Stethoscopes and other diagnostic tools are often eligible for reimbursement because they are required to assess patients, but are not readily available in the exam room. Check with your HR department for eligibility.
HSA/FSA
Health savings accounts (HSA) and flexible spending accounts (FSA) are pre-tax accounts connected to your health insurance plan designed to help you budget and pay for healthcare-related expenses. Programs have different rules, so check with your administrator if stethoscopes from Eko are HSA and FSA-eligible.
HRA
A health reimbursement arrangement (HRA) is funded solely by an employer for an employee, unlike HSA/FSA accounts which are primarily funded by the employee. HRAs are used to pay for healthcare-related expenses; however, eligibility of certain expenses can vary from company to company.
