Deductions & credits

I believe you are entering the data from your 1099-SA. In this case, the "Payer" is the HSA administrator, i.e., the financial institution that provided the debit card you are using to pay for medical expenses.

Look closely at the 1099-SA and you'll see that it says, "Trustee's/Payer's".

The Payer's federal ID number is in the box labelled "PAYER'S TIN" (Tax Identification Number).

Note that you are the Recipient.
