The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 2026 revised the rules governing health savings accounts (HSAs) in ways that allow them to be used to pay for direct primary care (DPC) monthly membership fees. The new rules still impose important limitations on the use of HSA funds and require regulations or guidance to be issued in the future. The premiums paid for the Atlas Direct insurance program do not qualify as an eligible HSA expense.
