Use Your Insurance & FSA Before the 2025 Year Ends
As the year comes to a close, it’s easy to get caught up in holiday plans and end-of-year to-do lists. One important reminder that often gets overlooked is your health insurance and Flexible Spending Account (FSA) benefits. In many cases, unused benefits don’t roll over—and once the calendar resets, they’re gone.
Taking a little time now to focus on your health can help you start the new year feeling better, while also making the most of benefits you’re already paying for.
Why End-of-Year Care Matters
Most insurance plans reset deductibles and out-of-pocket maximums on January 1. If you’ve already met part—or all—of your deductible this year, now is the ideal time to address lingering pain or mobility issues while your coverage is working in your favor.
The same goes for FSAs. These accounts are typically “use it or lose it,” meaning funds not spent by the end of the year may be forfeited. Chiropractic care, physical rehabilitation, and many therapeutic services are often eligible expenses.
Don’t Ignore Ongoing Pain
Many people live with discomfort longer than they should, assuming it’s “just part of life.” But pain that’s left unaddressed can worsen over time and interfere with daily activities.
Whether you’re dealing with knee pain in Gastonia, back pain in Shelby, arthritis in Belmont, or neck pain near University, getting evaluated before the year ends may help reduce pain now—and prevent bigger issues later.
End-of-year care isn’t about overdoing it; it’s about being proactive and giving your body the attention it deserves.
What Care Can Help With
Chiropractic care and related therapies may help with:
Joint pain and stiffness
Arthritis and mobility limitations
Knee, shoulder, and hip discomfort
If you’ve been putting off care because of time, cost, or uncertainty, this is often the best window of the year to take action.
A Smart Way to Start the New Year
Using your remaining benefits now can help you head into the new year feeling stronger, more mobile, and less limited by pain. Instead of starting January already behind on your health goals, you can begin with momentum and a clearer plan for continued care if needed.
Schedule Before the Calendar Resets
Appointments tend to fill quickly as the year winds down, so it’s best not to wait until the last minute. Checking your remaining insurance benefits or FSA balance now can help you decide what care makes sense before December 31.
