Easier Health Savings Accounts with Direct Medical Care
New rules allow individuals using direct medical care arrangements (e.g., doctor subscriptions) to remain eligible for Health Savings Accounts (HSAs). Fees for such care will be treated as medical expenses, potentially offering tax benefits. Employers will need to report these fees on W-2 forms.
