It’s no secret – medical expenses can add up quickly. For active-duty military families looking for reprise, there may be some relief on the horizon. In 2025, the Department of Defense (DOD) plans to introduce Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) for current servicemembers and their families. This can provide tax benefits and assist with everyday medical expenses from dental care to glasses and contacts, to bandages and sunscreen.
