Current List of Participating Pharmacies, Discount Stores & Supermarkets that will identify FSA-eligible items at checkout as of 1/1/2008 Starting January 1, 2008, new IRS rules allow you to use your Prepaid Benefits Card in participating pharmacies, discount stores and supermarkets that can identify FSA-eligible items at checkout. You will be able to purchase the FSA-eligible items on your Card, and will be asked for a different form of payment for non-eligible items. In most cases, NO receipts will be needed to verify the eligibility of FSA-eligible purchases at participating stores! Important point to remember: As of January 1, 2008, you cannot use your Card at discount stores, department stores, and supermarkets that do not participate, even if you have used your Card at these stores prior to January 1, 2008. Your transaction may be declined. (You can continue to use your Card at freestanding pharmacies.) Below is the current list of pharmacies, discount stores and supermarkets that have agreed to be publicly listed as planning to offer the Industry Standard version of identifying FSA-eligible items at checkout by 1/1/08 (or other date specified), barring any unforeseen events.
