Spend less to save more

Funds in your HSA at the end of the year roll over year after year allowing you to build your balance for when you need it, like in retirement. One way to help preserve your balance and take advantage of tax-free growth potential is to make a conscious decision to spend less from your HSA each year. If you can afford to, set an amount, such as $50 or $100, that you are willing to spend on health care out of your monthly budget before dipping into your HSA.

1 Potential Tax Advantages: You can receive tax-free distributions from your HSA to pay or be reimbursed for qualified medical expenses you incur after you establish the HSA. If you receive distributions for other reasons, the amount you withdraw will be subject to income tax and may be subject to an additional 20% tax, unless an exception applies. Any interest or earnings on the assets in the account are federal income tax-free. You may be able to claim a tax deduction for contributions you, or someone other than your employer, make to your HSA directly (not through payroll deductions). In addition, HSA contributions may reduce your state income taxes in certain states. Certain limits may apply to employees who are considered highly compensated key employees. Bank of America recommends you contact qualified tax or legal counsel before establishing an HSA.

2 "Never Lose it" refers to account portability and annual rollover of accumulated assets; it does not imply you cannot lose money. The investment portion of the HSA account is not FDIC insured, not bank guaranteed and may lose value.

3 Investing involves risk. There is always the potential of losing money when you invest in securities. Please consult with your independent attorney, tax advisor and financial advisor for final recommendations before changing or implementing any financial strategy.
