Withdrawals from your HSA when paying for qualified medical, dental, or vision expenses are tax-free! The Money Is Yours HSA money is yours You own the account and retain ownership of the contributions even if you change jobs or healthcare coverage. Funds roll over year-after-year use it or keep it At age 65, your HSA savings can be used for non-medical expenses without penalty. Income tax will apply.
