Prepare for health care in retirement

Did you know that on average Medicare only pays about 68% of your health care expenses during retirement?4 While some people are planning to use their 401(k) to pay for health care in retirement, your HSA savings provides for tax-free withdrawals to pay for qualified health care expenses, allowing you to preserve your 401(k) savings for other retirement expenses.

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.
