Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for managing a medical savings account that invests funds in investment accounts. A request is received for payment of a healthcare expense incurred by a party authorized for recovery under the medical savings account. A balance is drawn against a line of credit secured by one or more of the investment accounts. At least a portion of the healthcare expense is paid with funds obtained from the drawn balance. At least a portion of some of the investment accounts are liquidated in accordance with instructions provided by the party or by an owner of the medical savings account to satisfy the drawn balance of the line of credit.

Abstract: Methods and systems permit registration of a service provider and permit eligibility information to be provided to the service provider. Registration information is received over a financial network from a point-of-sale terminal. The registration information has an identifier associated with the point-of-sale terminal and an identification of the service provider. The identifier is associated with information identifying a device disposed at a location of the service provider in a database, permitting a communication path to the device to be established. A confirmation of registration of the point-of-sale terminal is transmitted to the device over the communication path.
