Frequently asked questions about LSAs for personalized self care subscriptions

What types of self-care subscriptions are typically eligible for LSA reimbursement?

Most wellness-focused subscription services qualify for LSA reimbursement, including monthly boxes containing aromatherapy products, natural skincare items, herbal teas, mindfulness tools, bath and spa products, wellness journals, and stress-relief accessories. The key requirement is that the subscription directly supports employee health and wellness goals. Some employers may choose to exclude purely luxury items, but most self-care subscriptions that promote mental health, relaxation, or stress management are considered eligible expenses.

How much should we allocate for self-care subscription LSAs?

LSA allocations for self-care subscriptions typically range from $25-100 per month per employee, depending on your overall benefits budget and company size. Many self-care subscription services cost between $15-50 monthly, so this range allows employees to choose quality options that fit their preferences. Consider surveying your team about their interest in different subscription types to help determine an appropriate allocation amount that maximizes participation and value.

Can employees use their LSA funds for multiple self-care subscriptions?

Yes, employees can typically use their LSA allocation across multiple self-care subscriptions as long as they stay within their total budget limit. For example, an employee might choose a monthly tea subscription and a quarterly aromatherapy box, or combine a skincare subscription with a mindfulness journal service. This flexibility allows employees to create a personalized wellness routine that addresses multiple aspects of their self-care needs.

How do we ensure self-care subscriptions align with our company wellness goals?

Work with your LSA provider to establish clear guidelines about eligible subscription types that support mental health, stress management, and overall wellness. You can create an approved vendor list or set criteria such as "subscriptions that promote relaxation, mindfulness, or stress relief." Regular employee feedback and usage tracking through your LSA platform can help you understand which subscriptions provide the most value and adjust your program accordingly.

What happens if an employee wants to cancel or change their self-care subscription?

Employees have full control over their subscription choices and can cancel or modify them at any time, just like any personal subscription service. Since LSA reimbursements are typically processed monthly, employees simply stop submitting receipts for cancelled subscriptions and can redirect their remaining LSA funds to new subscriptions or other eligible expenses. This flexibility ensures employees can adapt their wellness benefits as their needs and preferences change throughout the year.
