(17,425 posts)But whenever I try to use my debit card to pay a co-pay at the doctors office, the charge will go through, but the flex administrator will always come back to me requesting more detail to make sure the charge is IRS compliant. So for anything other than scripts, I just submit it online, manually, after I pay it with a regular credit card. I am then reimbursed with a direct deposit...and the reported fund balance remaining is incorrect probably a third of the time, because the administrator has a bad habit of deducting charges twice, which then necessitates an email and follow-up.
Also, there is no "network" for my spending plan. All they care about is that the charge is valid for FSA purposes, and that it is IRS compliant. I can see any doctor. My FSA is in no way tied to my insurance. Insurance presents a whole different set of problems, including "networks".
