My FSA validates nearly every transaction, even ones for “Elliot Hospital,” because I have 10% coinsurance so the amount charged to the card is almost never exactly equal to the $25 copayment.
The drug stores have introduced item-level tagging, however, so stuff that doesn’t qualify can’t be charged to the card.
I discovered all this when I went into business for myself in 2002. My wife has a chronic disease and no company would sell me insurance at any price. But if she had not had it, the closest price would have been $2000 per month. Let's see now, over six years that would have cost me $144,000. So I self-insured. The brainwashing on this topic is amazing. All the time people, highly educated people, gape at my wife and I when we tell them we do not have insurance.
Here's what I did on my own. I put $300,00 into a mutual fund. Post-tax dollars, No HSA, no government involvement. We shop for our medical care. I have negotiated treatments that were priced at $3500 to $800. I buy my wife's medicine in Mexico or from Canada. And don't try to sell me drug company propaganda, they are the exact same drugs they sell at Costco or Rite-Aid. So at last reckoning (when I did my taxes this year) instead of being $144,000 poorer. I am well over $125,000 better off after 5 years.
Dance little puppets, dance! 
This isn’t really about health care. It’s about power. The Democrats want to control every aspect of our lives, and the health care scam is their way of accomplishing this. Private insurance would circumvent their agenda.
It is my freakin’ money...!
Late last week, Evolution Benefits reversed position and no longer supports the proposed law because of industry/enrollee outrage and anger from nearly everyone else. However, it was too late. Congress wants the $2 billion they stand to make off the increased hassle and lower enrollments in money saving HSA plans. This is NO documentation of abuse of any kind with existing HSA’s, NONE, NADA, ZIP.
Ironically, nearly every congressional office has enrollees in HSA plans through the Federal benefits program. It is very popular with penny-pinching, underpaid D.C. staffers.
Congress has absolutely no problem with screwing up the only thing that saves money in private healthcare for a few bucks. They really want to force us all into higher levels of dissatisfaction in the hopes we will demand single payer.
Their hypocrisy goes beyond even what I had ever imagined.
