What to Do with Money in an HSA After You Switch to a Non-HSA Health Insurance Plan

If you've accumulated money in a Health Savings Account (HSA) but are now switching to a non-HSA health insurance plan, you may wonder what to do with the funds. HSAs offer great tax advantages and flexibility, so it's essential to make informed decisions about your HSA when transitioning to a different health insurance plan.

Here are some steps to consider:

• Keep the HSA for future qualified medical expenses
• Use the funds for qualified medical expenses
• Consider using the funds for non-qualified expenses, understanding the tax implications

If you switch to a non-HSA insurance plan, you can no longer contribute to the HSA but can still use the existing funds for eligible medical expenses. Remember that withdrawals for non-qualified expenses incur taxes and penalties. It's crucial to assess your options and plan accordingly.

Switching to a non-HSA health insurance plan can leave you with questions about your accrued Health Savings Account (HSA) funds. While you can no longer contribute to the HSA, the money in your account can continue to work for you.
