Where can I can a make sure the HSA are deducted as money spent for medical expenses?

HSA distributions (i.e., when money from your HSA is spent on medical expenses) are not directly reported on your return. Instead they appear (if you receive a 1099-SA and entered it as for medical expenses) on line 15 on form 8889.

The tax benefit for HSAs is when you contribute to an HSA - the contribution is either excluded from income or deducted (depending on how the contribution was made). The trick is that when you spend this tax-free money on medical expenses, it's still tax-free.

HSA expenses will not appear on Schedule A.
