Can I Continue to Contribute to HSA After 65? - Understanding the Benefits of Health Savings Accounts

Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are a valuable tool for managing healthcare expenses and saving for the future. They offer tax advantages and can help individuals cover medical costs not covered by insurance. But what happens when you turn 65? Can you still contribute to your HSA?

Yes, you can continue to contribute to your HSA after the age of 65, as long as you meet certain eligibility criteria. Here are some key points to consider:

• Once you enroll in Medicare, you can no longer contribute to your HSA.
• If you delay enrolling in Medicare and continue working past the age of 65, you can still contribute to your HSA.
• You can use the funds in your HSA to pay for qualified medical expenses tax-free, even after the age of 65.

It's important to understand the rules and limitations surrounding HSAs to make the most of this financial tool. Consult with a financial advisor to determine the best strategy for your healthcare savings.

Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are an excellent investment for your health, but turning 65 sparks questions about their uses. The great news is that you can continue contributing to your HSA even after hitting this milestone, provided you're still working and haven’t signed up for Medicare.
