You must be Amish. (I am!)
As the Carpenter’s use to sing...
We’ve only just begun....
I have no problem with having someone who claims a tax-exempt transaction being asked to prove it; otherwise you’ll have 20 year-olds claiming expenses for prune juice and denture cleaning stuff, or sixty year-olds claiming baby aspirin.
I have issues with the larger picture, but this may be just common sense; we can be asked to document anything we put on our tax returns, and this is no different.
I plan to call my local congress critter each and every time to see if the will help with the co-pay for the doctor visit and my Tylenol prescription.
This is ‘low hanging fruit’ for the next Congress to correct - I hope they don’t mess this one up ... They need a few wins under their belt.
You know, sooner or later, I am going to start getting upset reading about how every day the government climbs farther and farther up my ass in an attempt to control everything I do.

This is BUMMER care, all right!
From the perspective of someone who works in a doctor’s office, we do not need yet more phone calls from patients with more requests. As it is, we’re inundated with requests for refills, work/school notes, please have the doctor fill out such and such form, and on and on and on. Not the mention the repeat calls an hour later from people wanting to know why the doctor hasn’t responded to their requests yet.
This will burden busy clinics even more than we already are.
The left doesn’t like Health Savings Accounts. The concept reeks of “freedom” and they really hate freedom.

Oh this is going to make people mad and it is stupid. They will now have to pay for an office visit to buy tylenol with pre-tax dollars.
