- You can still use the funds for qualified medical expenses
- You can keep the HSA even if you switch jobs or retire
- Contributions to the HSA may vary with different insurance plans

When you change your health insurance plan, it's crucial to understand the implications for your Health Savings Account (HSA). The good news is, the funds in your HSA remain unaffected and continue to offer you tax advantages while helping you cover medical expenses.
