HSAs are, by legal requirement, only available if you are enrolled in a High-Deductible Health Plan [1], which is insurance and does pay for something, though (as the name suggests) it has a very high annual deductible (for which the HSA is used).

So if you have an HSA, you do, in fact, have insurance.

or you might have an HSA left over from when you used to have insurance. (FSAs expire at the end of the year, but HSAs are permanent.)
