Is mileage in conjunction with a medical visit or appointment a covered FSA expense?
Yes. Mileage and parking for medical visits are covered FSA expenses. The mileage rate is 24 cents per mile in 2009. You must complete and submit a paper claim form. Enter the total mileage charge (traveled round trip multiplied by .24) as a separate expense on the form. The dates of travel must match the corresponding dates of service. Be sure to check this rate annually. It is subject to change by IRS regulations.
