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. Instead of paying copayments or coinsurance right away, these costs would only apply after the person has already met their minimum deductible. This rule does not apply to preventive care services.1

Read the official explanation

This bill relates to cost sharing for health savings accounts (HSA) and qualified high-deductible health plans (HDHP). Under the bill, for group insurance and for accident and health insurance, if a copayment, coinsurance, or deductible paid as cost sharing by an enrollee may result in the enrollee becoming ineligible for an HSA associated with the enrollee’s qualified HDHP, the cost sharing shall apply only to the enrollee’s qualified HDHP after the enrollee satisfies S.F. _____ H.F. _____ the enrollee’s minimum deductible, except for items or services determined to be preventive care.
