Pre-Tax Health Savings
Your stay may be HSA/FSA eligible
Many families use pre-tax health savings or flexible spending funds to offset the cost of their Maison Mère Care stay. We have made the process as straightforward as possible.
What's Covered
Clinical services are typically HSA/FSA eligible
The IRS defines eligible HSA/FSA expenses as those for the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease. Postpartum nursing care, lactation consulting, pelvic floor PT, and perinatal mental health services all fall within this definition. Maison Mère Care provides an itemized receipt that separates eligible clinical services from hotel accommodation costs.
- 24/7 nursing care and clinical monitoring
- Lactation consultant (IBCLC) sessions
- Pelvic floor physical therapy
- Perinatal mental health therapy
- Postpartum mood disorder screening
- Medical nutrition services for recovery
Note: Hotel accommodation and meal costs are typically not HSA/FSA eligible. We provide receipts itemized to maximize your eligible claim.

Common HSA/FSA questions
Do I need a prescription or Letter of Medical Necessity?
Most HSA/FSA administrators require a Letter of Medical Necessity from your provider for postpartum care expenses. We provide a template you can have your OB or midwife sign.
What if my administrator denies my claim?
Denials can often be appealed. We will provide any additional documentation your administrator needs — itemized receipts, service descriptions, and clinical documentation.
Can I use my Dependent Care FSA?
No. Dependent Care FSA funds are for child care expenses, not medical care. Your regular Health FSA or HSA is the appropriate account.
How much of my stay can I claim?
Only the clinical services portion of your stay is eligible. We will provide an itemized breakdown. For most stays, this represents 50–70% of the total cost.
