Think of it as a fund for future medical needs. Contributions are made into your HSA either by the account owner (you) or, in some cases, your employer, similar to a retirement plan or other types of savings accounts. The money you contribute into this account can be used to pay for any current or future health care cost, including elective procedures, emergency treatments, major surgeries, and the like. These contributions are taken out on a pre-tax basis, and may be able to be claimed as deductions on your taxes the following year.
Generally speaking, you can use a health savings account to pay for any qualified medical expense. “Qualified medical expenses”, as defined by the IRS, include medical care, vision care, dental care, prescription drug expenses and payment for long term care services .
To open an HSA, you must have a qualifying high deductible health plan (HDHP) and meet other IRS eligibility requirements, unless an exception applies. You cannot be covered by any other health plan that is not an HDHP. You cannot be currently enrolled in Medicare and you cannot be claimed as a dependent on another individual’s tax return.
Any remaining balance automatically rolls over year after year.
