What’s in it
AI summary People with high-deductible health plans and health savings accounts would see a change in how they pay for medical costs. If a person's payments for things like copayments or deductibles would normally make them lose their eligibility for a health savings account, those payments will only apply after they have met their minimum deductible. This rule does not apply to preventive care services.1
