An itemized receipt must contain the provider name, type of service, date of service, and cost of service. For health care expenses, a copy of your Explanation of Benefits (EOB) typically contains all the required information. You can generally access this information from your health plan login site if a copy is not automatically mailed to you. Alternatively, you can request a detailed statement from your health care provider. For prescription expenses, an itemized receipt is typically included with your drug information details. The itemized receipt will include the drug name. A standard credit card receipt doesn’t typically provide the detail required to verify the expense.
