It’s a federally approved, tax-exempt account that can help you subsidize the cost of healthcare, from prescriptions to hospital visits.
If you have a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP), you could be eligible for a Health Savings Account. It’s easy to set up, track, and manage your annual healthcare expenses with the efficiency of online banking.
Qualifications
To qualify for a Health Savings Account, the following requirements must be met:
Contributions for 2023
Contributions for 2024
Distributions can be made for various health-related costs, ranging from co-pays to the purchase of medical equipment. There is no required minimum distribution amount, so funds may be carried forward from year to year. Individuals can receive tax-free distributions to complete transactions or be reimbursed for qualified medical expenses.
If distributions are used toward non-approved transactions, the amount withdrawn will be subject to income tax and may be subject to an additional 20% tax (per the IRS), unless the funds are withdrawn due to death, disability, or turning 65. At age 65 (or older), funds can be withdrawn for non-qualified medical expenses and will be taxable without IRS penalty.
Important note about overdrafts: Overdrawing an HSA is prohibited by the Internal Revenue Code. If you create a negative balance in your HSA, it is no longer treated as an HSA. To prevent this, Manasquan Bank will deny any payments that overdraw your HSA.
