  • Online Bill Pay: Most HSA administrators provide online portals where you can log in and pay your medical bills directly from your HSA account.
  • Reimbursement: If you've paid for a qualified expense out of pocket, you can submit a claim to your HSA provider for reimbursement.

It's important to keep track of your HSA transactions and ensure that you only use the funds for eligible medical expenses to avoid penalties. By staying informed about your HSA account, you can make the most of this valuable healthcare savings tool.
