What is a Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN), exactly?

A short note from a licensed clinician naming the product, the medical condition it treats, and the duration of treatment. It's a single page. Caeli's telehealth partners issue one through an intake that runs concurrently with merchant checkout — under 3 minutes from your side.

What if I get audited?

Caeli vaults your LMN, the itemized receipt, and your symptom intake together for the full 7-year IRS audit window. If your HSA administrator or the IRS asks, you forward one folder.

Does my wellness stipend (LSA) cover this?

Maybe — LSA coverage is set by your employer's plan, so it varies by person. Caeli reads your employer's LSA categories and tells you whether you can pay this way — often with no paperwork. If you have both an LSA and an HSA, Caeli steers you to spend the LSA first (it can expire) and protect the HSA (it compounds).

Does Caeli ever see my medical records?

Only the intake answers you choose to share with the telehealth clinician. Caeli itself does not store diagnoses; we store the LMN as the clinician issues it.

Covered by your HSA/FSA with a Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN). Caeli runs the telehealth intake during checkout — under 3 minutes.

The smart play

Multi-wallet

Spend FSA first. Put the rest on credit and shoebox it for deferred HSA reimbursement.

Spend your FSA first — it resets yearly. Cover the rest on credit and shoebox it for deferred reimbursement years later from your (still-compounding) HSA.

1. Spend FSA

2. Credit for the rest

3. Shoebox for HSA later

About Letters of Medical Necessity

What's an LMN, and do you qualify?

A Letter of Medical Necessity is a one-page note from a licensed clinician stating that a product treats, mitigates, or prevents a specific medical condition. The IRS accepts an LMN as the documentation that turns a “general wellness” product into a qualified medical expense — which is what unlocks HSA/FSA coverage for the Ultra Strength Women's Multi & Omega-3 Softgels.

Good to know: once issued, an LMN is valid for 12 months and can be reused for any other eligible purchase tied to the same condition — not just this one product.

Here's what Caeli does for you, automatically:

Checks if you need one. Flagged before you click buy — no surprises at reimbursement time.
Gets you one in ~3 minutes. A licensed clinician reviews a quick intake right inside checkout.
Vaults it for the long haul. Stored with every receipt — ready for future HSA reimbursements and the full IRS audit window (typically 7 years).

Telehealth intake runs inline — about 3 minutes.

Want the details first? How LMNs work

Who typically qualifiesClinician-reviewed

Do any of these sound like you?

An LMN is commonly issued when a wellness product supports one of the areas below. You don't need a formal diagnosis to start — a licensed clinician reviews your intake and decides whether one applies to the Ultra Strength Women's Multi & Omega-3 Softgels.

Metabolic & nutritional
e.g. Hyperlipidemia, Homocystinuria
Bones, joints & muscles
e.g. Sarcopenia, muscle pain
Skin
e.g. Psoriasis, Dermatitis
Heart & circulation
e.g. Heart failure, atherosclerosis

Not medical advice. A licensed clinician makes the final determination based on your full intake.

FAQ

What shoppers ask before they click buy

Written by Caeli's benefits team. If we haven't answered your question, the extension's in-app chat is staffed by humans.

With a Letter of Medical Necessity, yes. The IRS treats many wellness products as "general wellness" by default; an LMN from a clinician documents the medical purpose and converts the purchase into a qualified medical expense. Caeli automates the LMN flow inline during checkout.
