Can a Working 65 Year Old Still Contribute to an HSA Plan?

Many people wonder if they can continue contributing to their Health Savings Account (HSA) once they reach the age of 65 and are still working. The answer is yes! If you are 65 or older and are still employed, you can absolutely keep contributing to your HSA as long as you are enrolled in a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP).

Here are some key points to remember:

  • At age 65, you can use your HSA funds for any medical expenses without penalty, even if it's not for qualified medical expenses.
  • If you enroll in Medicare, you can no longer contribute to an HSA, but you can still use the funds for qualified medical expenses tax-free.
  • Contributions to your HSA made through payroll deductions are tax-free, providing a nice tax break for those still in the workforce.

So, if you are 65 and still working, make sure to take advantage of your HSA benefits to save for medical expenses in retirement!


Absolutely! If you're 65 years old and still earning a paycheck, your Health Savings Account (HSA) isn’t just for the young — it’s a valuable resource for you too! You can continue to make contributions as long as you’re enrolled in a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP).
