Share to linkedinIn a win for the health savings account industry and consumers with certain chronic illnesses, the Trump Treasury Department has broadened the list of preventative care items that may be covered at 100% under a high-deductible health plan before the deductible kicks in. But whether insurers will absorb the new costs or pass them on to employers and consumers in premium increases is a big unknown.
