Medical savings account.
You may be able to make deductible contributions to a medical savings account (MSA). If you are an employee of a small business (fewer than 50 employees), or self-employed and covered only by a high deductible health plan, you may be eligible to have an MSA. You deduct MSA contributions on Form 1040, line 25, not on Schedule A (Form 1040) as a qualified medical expense. See Publication 969, Medical Savings Accounts (MSAs), for more information.
