However, there may be certain considerations to keep in mind when it comes to dependents and their coverage under MassHealth's MassHealth Care (MBHP). One common question is whether a dependent child can stay on MBHP when a parent has an HSA account. Let's explore this further to understand the implications.

HSA are individual accounts and MBHP eligibility

It's important to note that HSA accounts are individual accounts, meaning that each person, including dependents, can have their own HSA if they meet the eligibility criteria. Here are some key points to consider:

• Dependent child can still be covered under MBHP even if the parent has an HSA account.
