What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "Oral Health Products Inclusion Act," aims to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. It seeks to include certain over-the-counter oral healthcare products as qualified medical expenses. Specifically, it targets products like toothbrushes, water flossers, and oral healthcare products. These items would then be eligible for purchase using HSA, Archer MSA, FSA, and HRA funds. The changes would apply to expenses incurred after the Act is enacted.
