## Summary

**Expands HSA access for many veterans.** This bill would let more veterans contribute to health savings accounts and would change how HSAs work during caregiving and with plan requirements. It would also raise contribution limits to give account holders bigger tax‑advantaged savings options. - Veterans: Eligible veterans discharged under conditions other than dishonorable would be able to contribute to HSAs under the bill's new definition. The eligibility change would apply to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025. - Caregivers and families: The bill would allow tax‑favored HSA distributions during a defined “period of qualified caregiving” tied to Family and Medical Leave Act situations. Distributions used for qualified medical expenses during that period would not be included in gross income. - Account holders: The bill would remove the rule that HSAs must pair with a high‑deductible health plan and raise annual contribution limits to $9,000 for individuals and $18,000 for joint filers. - Federal oversight: The Treasury, with the Department of Veterans Affairs, would write anti‑abuse rules, require documentation standards, and report annually to Congress on veteran HSA use, contributions, distributions, device or treatment types, and any program issues.
