AI Summary

This bill, the Telemedicine Everywhere Lifting Everyone's Healthcare Experience And Long Term Health HSA Act of 2021 (TELEHEALTH HSA Act of 2021), amends the Internal Revenue Code to permanently allow high-deductible health plans (HDHPs) to provide first-dollar coverage for telehealth services without affecting the plan's eligibility for health savings accounts (HSAs). The bill removes the current temporary provision that limits this exemption to plan years beginning on or before December 31, 2021, effectively making the telehealth coverage exemption permanent for HSA-eligible HDHPs.
