1 Lane Health is a financial technology company, not a bank. The Healthcare Spending Card is issued by Lead Bank pursuant to a license from Visa USA Inc.
2 Lane Health does not charge interest on, or an annual fee for, the Healthcare Spending Card. “0% financing” pertains to repayment options that do not charge interest (0% interest) nor fees ($0 fees). Each Advance can be repaid in full, 4-month term or 12-month term (with a minimum $3 due each payment period). Transactions other than qualified hospital expenses (based on merchant category code) will be charged an origination fee of 5% and periodic finance fees. The location of the service provider is not determinative of whether a transaction is a qualified hospital expense. Rather, transactions made within or at a hospital (including but not limited to specialists, doctors, pharmacies, etcetera) are determined to be eligible by the associated MCC and not the location of the service provider in the hospital. New Advances, if eligible, can be repaid in full or over 4 installments with no origination or periodic finance fees. Late fees apply.

A real game changer

Lane Health and their Health Spending Card have been a life saver for my family, enabling a relative to get the care he needed without delay and avoiding his condition to worsen. The fact that he could do it without getting into huge debt with high interest rates was a real game changer.

Stress-Free Healthcare Payments

I’ve been using the HSC card from Lane Health for a few months, and it’s been great! Easy to signup, easy to use, and the clear terms make managing healthcare expenses stress-free. The pay-in-12 feature is a lifesaver and it pulls funds automatically from my HSA, which adds to the convenience. Customer service is quick and helpful whenever I had questions. Overall, the HSC card has made handling medical bills much easier. Highly recommend!

No fees, no problem

My daughter's orthodontist charges a $25 monthly fee for payments made on braces. Thanks to my Delta Dental insurance and the partnership with Lane Health, I was able to use my Healthcare Spending Card to pay the orthodontist in full and avoid fees completely. There are so many other things I can use that extra $300 for. YES!

FAQ
What is the Healthcare Spending Card?

The Healthcare Spending Card is designed to be a better way to pay for your healthcare expenses and to provide an additional source of funds (upon application and approval) to help you pay for the healthcare you deserve. It can link to your existing health savings account (HSA) or flexible spending account (FSA) to utilize available pre-tax funds to repay healthcare bills paid with the Card, minimizing the need to carry multiple cards.

Why should I consider requesting this Card?

Not only does the Card provide a line of credit, it also has additional benefits including multiple repayment types including 0% financing2 options. If you have a health savings account (HSA) or flexible savings account (FSA), you can link these accounts to your Healthcare Spending Card and save up to 25%3 by repaying healthcare expenses using pre-tax dollars. And finally, the Card has no annual fee2 so it can be there for you when you need it and not cost you anything when you don't.

Will my credit score be impacted by applying for the Healthcare Spending Card?

No. Lane Health performs a soft credit check on Healthcare Spending Card applications, but there is no negative impact to your credit score if you are not approved or choose not to open an account. Similar to most lending products, Lane Health will perform a hard credit check and report the opening of a Healthcare Spending Card account for those that are approved - which may affect your credit score.

Do I need to have a health spending account to use the Healthcare Spending Card?

No. This Card works with or without a linked spending account. Upon approval, you are assigned ­­­­­­a credit limit that can be used to pay for qualified healthcare expenses. If you have linked your spending account, you can use the pre-tax funds available to pay back the Card at your discretion.

How do I link the Card to an existing spending account?

When you apply for the Card, you can link your eligible health savings account (HSA) during the signup process or later in the cardmember portal.

What are the associated fees for utilizing the Healthcare Spending Card?

You pay no annual fees2. We don’t charge interest2. You can take advantage of 0% financing2 options for the following qualified expenses:
- Hospital for 12 months.
- Other healthcare for 4 months.

For all other types of healthcare bills we do charge origination and periodic finance fees that total between 8-13% of the original loan amount over 12 months (see chart for how this varies by loan amount). Specifically, we charge a 5% Origination fee plus periodic finance fees (charged four times over the 12 months and get smaller as you pay back your loan).

How do I request and activate the Healthcare Spending Card?

After applying and being approved for the Healthcare Spending Card, you will have immediate access to a virtual card in the Lane Health Mobile App or cardmember portal.

If you want to request a physical card, you can do so during the application process. Once you’re received your card, you can activate it by going to card.lanehealth.com/activate or by clicking the activate button in the Lane Health portal and enteringthe last 4 digits of your card number and CCV. You can also call the Lane Health team at 1-217 HSC-CARE (472-2273) to activate the Card.

I got my Healthcare Spending Card as part of my employer's benefits package. What happens at the end of a plan year – do I re-enroll or keep the Healthcare Spending Card?

You only need to apply and activate the Card once. The card stays active as long as you make on-time minimum payments.

Do the expenses allowed under the Healthcare Spending Card follow the same IRS rules for spending accounts?

Yes, only qualified healthcare expenses are approved. As is currently the case with HSAs, it’s always up to you to ensure that expenses are considered qualified healthcare expenses. And as is currently the case with FSAs, expenses must be substantiated. A comprehensive list of qualified expenses can be found on the IRS website: https://www.irs.gov/forms-pubs/about-publication-502.

Will I be able to track the amount of funds pulled from my health savings account by the Card?

Yes. When the Card pulls available funds from your linked health savings account, those actions will be visible as transactions by the health savings account administrator. Lane Health will be listed as the merchant for these transactions, and you will be able to view these transactions like you would any other transaction from your account. In addition, all transactions, including payments through the linked  account, will be visible on the Lane Health mobile app, portal (bewell.lanehealth.com) and periodic statements.

Will loan repayments be calculated so the monies will be paid within the 12 months allotted?

Yes. Loan repayments will be done in 12 equal installments, monthly. Employees can also select to repay in full or over 4 installments with no fees2.

Do I have to link a bank account to utilize the Healthcare Spending Card?

You can link your health savings account or your bank account to make payments towards your outstanding Card balance. Additionally, you can call in to make a payment.

If the Healthcare Spending Card only pays for expenses up to my credit limit, what happens if the Healthcare Spending Card is swiped for an expense greater than the credit limit?

The Healthcare Spending Card will only approve up to your credit limit.

Can I apply  for and use the Healthcare Spending Card even if I’m not in a qualified High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP)?

Yes, you can.

Will I still be able to use my Healthcare Spending Card if I leave my employer?

Yes. You can continue using your Card even if you leave your employer. Your Card will not be turned off.

Can I alter my selected repayment option at any time?

Yes, you can. Every loan (defined as new charges during the statement period) will be defaulted to a 12-month repayment option (with fees) but you have the option to select Pay in Full or Pay In 4 installments (without fees2). You can select the repayment options at any time between the statement date (the date when the new charges are consolidated into a loan) and the day before the Due Date (which will be 14 days after the statement date).
