What the document says

“A direct primary care service arrangement shall not be treated as a health plan for purposes of subparagraph (A)(ii).”

To provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14, Sec. 71308

The section adds a new subparagraph (E) to section 223(c)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 so that a direct primary care service arrangement does not count as a health plan for the purposes of the rule that would otherwise bar a health savings account.

“A direct primary care service arrangement shall not be treated as a health plan for purposes of subparagraph (A)(ii).”

To provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14, Sec. 71308
That sentence, in plain words

Such an arrangement is not treated as a health plan. That holds for one named rule.

What this is about

That rule would otherwise block a health savings account. So a person may keep both. The tax code is not indexed here.
