Deductions & credits

Try the following:

Review your input for your HSA contributions and distributions.

In order to do this, go to the Federal section of the program and select "Deductions & Credits".

1. Select Medical (you may have to select see all if you do not see this option)
2. Under Medical, select "HSA, MSA Contributions"
3. Follow the screens and answer the questions 
4. Enter any information from any 1099-SA forms.  
5. Confirm whether the distributions were used on medical expenses.
6. Confirm if you or your spouse were covered under a "High Deductible Health Plan" (HDHP). 
7. Please confirm the year as you answer the questions. 
8. If it refers to the coverage under an HDHP in 2018, please answer None in all of the following situations:
   
   • You had an HSA in 2018 but did not contribute
   • You had HDHP coverage for all of 2018
   • You had no HDHP coverage for all of 2018
   • You did not have an HSA in 2018
9. By answering None to all of the options in 2018, the error message regarding the lapse in coverage will go away and you will be able to proceed with your return.

I have attached a link to additional information regarding HSA's to help you confirm you meet all of the requirements.
