Here at Promise Direct Primary Care, we believe healthcare should be affordable, accessible, and personal. That’s why we’re excited that the newest piece of legislation from the US Congress, H.R.1 — affectionately called the “Big Beautiful Bill” — has just made it easier for patients like you to invest in great primary care.
Here’s the big news:
H.R.1 now allows Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) to be used to pay for direct primary care (DPC) membership fees. That means you can now use pre-tax dollars to cover the cost of your Promise DPC membership. Section 71308 of the bill specifies that $150 per individual (or $300 per family) may be used for monthly DPC membership fees.
What this means for you:
1. More Flexibility, Less Stress
If you’ve been contributing to an HSA, you now have the freedom to use those funds to cover your monthly membership with us. This is a huge win for people who want personalized, unhurried care without breaking the bank.
2. Tax Savings for Smart Healthcare
Since HSA dollars are tax-free, you’ll get to stretch your healthcare budget even further. You’re now saving money and getting the kind of care that puts you first.
3. Better Care Without the Middleman
DPC is already known for removing the red tape and allowing physicians to care for patients directly — no billing codes, no insurance approvals, no 7-minute visits. With HSA eligibility in the mix, there’s even less reason to stick with the old way of doing things.
Why this matters:
Until now, federal restrictions kept HSA funds from being used on DPC memberships — even though the model is designed to prevent expensive downstream care. It was a frustrating contradiction. But now, thanks to bipartisan support and patient-centered advocacy, those restrictions have been lifted.
It’s one more step toward restoring the doctor-patient relationship and making healthcare work for you.
