11 HSA Contributions You are allowed to contribute the entire year s limit whenever you first become eligible for the HSA (even if that is in December) However, you must remain eligible for at least 12 months after that date, or you will be subject to taxes and penalties on the amount you contributed. When contributing lump sums outside of payroll deductions, you must claim on your tax return to take advantage of the tax savings. Section provided on tax return after tax contributions to HSA

14 HSA Distribution Rules Distributions from your HSA are tax-free if they are taken for qualified medical expenses Your HSA can only be used for expenses that are incurred on or after the date the HSA was established However, HSA funds can be used for expenses from a prior year, as long as the expenses incurred on or after the date the HSA was established There is no annual plan year as with an FSA and the Use it or lose it rule does not apply.
15 HSA Distribution Rules HSA distributions can be taken for qualified medical expenses for the following: The account holder (person covered by the QHDHP) Spouse and Dependent Children of that individual (even if not covered by the QHDHP)
16 Distributions (Age 65+) For individuals age 65 and older, HSA distributions can be used for nonqualified medical expenses without facing the 20% penalty However, income taxes will apply for nonmedical distributions This rule is regardless of whether the individual is enrolled in Medicare
17 QUALIFIED MEDICAL EXPENSES
18 Qualified Medical Expenses The IRS defines expenses that are considered qualified medical expenses for HSA distributions Expenses must be used primarily to treat or prevent a physical or mental defect or illness If you use HSA funds for expenses beyond what the IRS defines as qualified, you will be subject to income tax on the distribution and an additional 20% penalty
19 Qualified Medical Expenses (Posted on Examples of qualified medical expenses include: Most medical care that is subject to your deductible (doctor visits, inpatient or outpatient treatment, etc.) Prescription drugs Over-the-counter drugs (only if you obtain a prescription) Insulin (with or without a prescription) Dental and vision care Select insurance premiums COBRA, qualified long-term care insurance, health insurance premiums paid while receiving unemployment benefits, health insurance after you turn 65 except for a Medicare supplemental policy

21 Recordkeeping Whenever you use HSA funds to pay for a medical expense, you should keep your receipt You may need to demonstrate to the IRS that HSA distributions were for qualified medical expenses If the IRS requests receipts for verification purposes, failure to provide those receipts could result in having to pay a 20% penalty and income tax.
