It's impossible to properly "keep an eye" on the price of procedures.

Call your dermatologist and ask how much it would cost to get a mole removed and checked for cancer.

Now, 2 hours later, if they even have you a price, tell me if that's reasonable or overpriced. What are you basing that judgement on?

Apologies, I wasn't referring to that. I was referring to it's easy to keep an eye on the "total cost you've spent" using an HSA, because it's your money in your account.
