On June 24, 2019, The White House Issued A Presidential Executive Order. Section 6 (b) Directed HHS & Treasury To Propose Regulations For DIRECT PRIMARY CARE To Be Treated As HSA-Eligible Medical Expenses.
On June 8, 2020, The US Department of Treasury Introduced A PROPOSED RULE In Response To The President’s Executive Order Codifying DIRECT PRIMARY CARE Medical Services As HSA-Qualified Medical Expenses.
We Thank President Trump For His Work And Support Of This PROPOSED RULE!
We Agree With Treasury’s Ruling That Direct Primary Care Is An HSA-Eligible Expense.
We Adamantly Disagree With Treasury’s Proposal That Direct Primary Care Is Health Insurance.
The Comment Period For This Rule Is Happening RIGHT NOW!
The Department Of Treasury Must Read, Consider, And Provide A Response To Each Comment Submitted.
Everyone’s Voice Is Important!
