HSA Eligibility for Direct Primary Care Users
This act aims to make it easier for citizens to use Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) even if they pay for direct primary care services. This means that fees for basic healthcare will no longer prevent individuals from having an HSA, potentially helping with healthcare cost management.
Key points
Individuals with direct primary care arrangements (paying a fixed fee for basic medical services) will remain eligible for Health Savings Accounts (HSAs).
Fees for direct primary care arrangements will be treated as medical expenses, potentially allowing for tax deductions.
A monthly fee limit for direct primary care (150 USD for an individual, 300 USD for more than one) is introduced, beyond which these benefits will not apply.
Certain services, such as procedures requiring general anesthesia, prescription drugs (other than vaccines), and some lab services, are excluded from direct primary care for the purpose of this act.
Employers will be required to report direct primary care arrangement fees on employee W-2 forms.
