Episode notes
Choose HSA Over FSA When Possible
- Avoid using an FSA if you're eligible for an HSA because FSAs are inflexible and often forfeited if unused.
- If your employer offers an FSA now, you can elect an HSA for the following plan year when you stop the FSA.
Stop HSA Contributions Once On Medicare
- Stop contributing to an HSA once you enroll in Medicare because you become ineligible to contribute further.
- You may keep HSA funds but cannot add new contributions after Medicare enrollment.
