“Health savings accounts empower families and individuals to have more financial control in their health care choices,” Rubio said. “I am proud to reintroduce this commonsense, pro-family legislation alongside Senator Scott to make managing the cost of health care more feasible for Americans.”
“As we continue to fight this pandemic, it has never been more crucial to give every American the flexibility and quality care that serves their individual health needs,” Scott said. “The last year has reminded us of the importance of empowering families to save and plan for future medical expenses. By giving those with health savings accounts more control over their own medical expenses, we can dramatically improve affordability and access to care for 22 million Americans.”
