optumbank.comHSAs and MedicareMedicare and HSA eligibilityMany individuals are confused at the intersection of health savings accounts (HSAs) and Medicare. Two different federal agencies have primary responsibility for these programs — the Department of Health and Human Services, for Medicare, and the Department of the Treasury, for HSAs. Each agency issues rules related to its products without consideration of the interaction with the other product, leaving Americans confused. This paper is designed to help you navigate this confusion so that you remain in compliance with HSA rules.1. Do I lose my HSA eligibility at age 65?No. You can open and contribute to an HSA at age 65 or lateras long as you meet HSA eligibility requirements, which are:• You’re covered on an HSA-qualified medical plan.• You’re not someone’s tax dependent.• You don’t have any conflicting coverage (including enrollmentin Medicare).Turning age 65 does not, in and of itself, preclude you from remaining HSA-eligible absent any disqualifying coverage.2. Does enrollment in Medicare impact my HSAeligibility?Yes. Medicare doesn’t offer an HSA qualifying option. You can’tmake contributions to your HSA for any months after you enrollin any part of Medicare, even if you’re also covered on an HSAqualifying plan.3. Aren’t I automatically enrolled in Medicare Part A atage 65?No. You’re enrolled in Part A (inpatient services) automaticallyonly if you are age 65 or older and receiving Social Security orRailroad Retirement benefits. You’re enrolled in Part A and PartB (outpatient services like doctor visits, lab work and imaging)automatically if you’re collecting Social Security disability
HSAs and Medicarebenefits or are diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, or Lou Gehrig’s disease). Otherwise, you must sign up to receive coverage through Medicare.For more information on Medicare enrollment, please refer to Medicare & You (available online) or call the Social Security Administration customer service center at 1-800-772-1213. 4. If my spouse and I are enrolled on my employer’sHSA-qualified plan and I enroll in Medicare, can heopen an HSA?Yes, if your spouse is otherwise HSA-eligible. Individuals don’t have tobe the medical plan subscriber to be HSA-eligible. You or your spousecan then make tax-deductible contributions into his HSA, up to thefamily maximum if you remain covered on a family contract (even ifonly your spouse is HSA-eligible). For some couples, this provision inthe law allows them to continue to contribute to an HSA (and buildincome tax-free balances for distribution in retirement) for severalyears after the older spouse enrolls in Medicare.5. If I’m not HSA-eligible, can I enroll in my employer’s HSA-qualified plan?Yes. HSA eligibility refers to your ability to open and contribute toan HSA, not whether or not you can enroll in a medical plan. Aslong as you meet your employer’s and the medical insurer’s eligibilityrequirements, you can enroll in an HSA qualifying medical plan. Ifyou’re not HSA-eligible, though, you can’t open and contribute toan HSA. Your employer may offer a health flexible spending account(FSA) or health reimbursement arrangement (HRA) through whichyou can reimburse eligible expenses income tax-free.Medicare and HSA contributions6. Can I continue to contribute to my HSA once I’m enrolled inMedicare?No. You lose HSA eligibility once you enroll in Medicare, so you can’tmake additional contributions. You can contribute for months thatyou were eligible before you enrolled in Medicare. For example, ifyour 65th birthday is May 6 and you enroll in Medicare immediately,your effective date of Medicare coverage is May 1. You can makecontributions for the months of January, February, March and Aprilat any point up to the date that you file your personal income taxreturns for that year, even though you may not be HSA-eligible at thetime that you make your retroactive contribution for those months.7. Can I contribute to my spouse’s HSA if I’m enrolled inMedicare and no longer HSA-eligible?Yes, if your spouse is HSA-eligible and has an HSA, you — or anyoneelse — can contribute to her HSA. Your enrollment in Medicaredoesn’t disqualify her from contributing to (or accepting contributionfrom others into) her HSA. You can contribute personal funds, eitherthrough post-tax payroll (you can set up a payroll deduction to sendmoney directly to your spouse’s HSA) or with personal funds. Yourspouse then deducts these contributions on her (or if you’re filingjointly, your joint) personal income tax return.Medicare and HSA distributions8. I’m no longer HSA-eligible. Can I make income tax-freedistributions for qualified medical expenses?Yes. HSA eligibility relates to your ability to make contributions. Onceyou open an HSA, you can make income tax-free distributions forqualified medical expenses for the rest of your life, as long as you stillhave a balance in your account.9. Which expenses can I reimburse from my HSA once I’menrolled in Medicare?You can still reimburse, income tax-free, all qualified medical out-of-pocket expenses not reimbursed by other insurance or other sources,including:• Medical plan deductibles• Copay and coinsurance• Dental and vision expenses• Insulin and diabetic supplies• Over-the-counter drugs and medicine with a prescriptionIn addition, you can reimburse certain insurance premiums, including premiums for: • Medicare Parts B and D• Medicare Part C (Medicare Advantage — plans offered byprivate insurers that replace Medicare coverage)• Some Medicare supplement plans10. Whose qualified medical expenses can I reimburse incometax-free from my HSA?You can reimburse your own, your spouse’s and any tax dependents’(such as an adult disabled child’s) expenses income tax-free fromyour HSA. These other family members don’t need to be HSA-eligiblethemselves or covered on your medical plan for you to make incometax-free distributions from your HSA to reimburse their qualifiedmedical expenses tax-free. Note: You can’t reimburse your own oroptumbank.com 2
anyone else’s Medicare premiums income tax-free until you, the account owner, turn age 65. If you have an older spouse and want to reimburse their Medicare premiums income tax-free, they must open an HSA before they enroll in Medicare and contribute at least the $1,000 annual catch-up contribution. They can use this to cover their Medicare premiums until you turn age 65 and can reimburse their premiums income tax-free from your HSA. In addition, when both of you are HSA-eligible and covered on a family HSA-qualifying or compatible medical plan, you can split the family maximum contribution between your two HSAs as you wish.11. My spouse and I both have an HSA. Do we have to limitdistributions from each HSA to our own expenses?No. You can reimburse each other’s expenses from your respectiveHSAs as long as you remain married. You can’t combine accounts,but you may choose to reimburse both your and your spouse’sexpenses from one HSA to exhaust the balance in that account.Then, you have to manage (and perhaps pay monthly administration/maintenance fees) on only one account without losing the ability toreimburse an expense that either of you incurs (as long as youremain married).12. Can I make income tax-free distributions from my HSA fornon-qualified medical expenses when I turn age 65?No. Distributions for non-eligible expenses are always included inyour taxable income, putting these withdrawals on par with taxeson distributions from a traditional 401(k) or traditional IRA. Onceyou turn 65 or meet Social Security’s definition of disabled, youcan make distributions for items that aren’t HSA-qualified withoutincurring the 20 percent additional tax (penalty) otherwise assessedto non-qualified medical expenses.13. If I pass away first, can my HSA continue to reimburse myspouse’s qualified medical expenses income tax-free?You name a beneficiary when you enroll in your HSA, and you canchange the designation at any time. If you name your spouse asbeneficiary (the most common situation), upon your death yourHSA passes to your spouse with balances and tax advantages intact.Your spouse can then reimburse their own eligible expenses incometax-free. In addition, if your spouse remarries, they can reimbursetheir new spouse’s qualified medical expenses income tax-free. Ifyou name any other person or entity as the beneficiary, the HSA isliquidated and the assets pass to that person or entity, who may incura tax liability. That beneficiary doesn’t enjoy the tax benefits and isn’tconstrained by the rules of an HSA.Delaying enrollment in Medicare when first eligible to enroll14. Do I face a penalty if I defer Medicare enrollment when I’mfirst eligible (65th birthday for most individuals)?Possibly. Here are the potential tax consequences if you delayenrolling in Medicare around your 65th birthday when you’re entitledto an Initial Enrollment Period:• Part A (inpatient and home health care): If you (or your spouse)worked 40 employment quarters with income above the Medicarethreshold, you receive Part A premium-free. You face no penaltiesfor delaying enrollment past your Initial Enrollment Period.• Part B (physician and outpatient services): If you don’t enroll duringthe Initial Enrollment Period, you must maintain group coveragefrom your 65th birthday until you do enroll in Part B. For every12 months past your 65th birthday that you don’t maintain groupcoverage, you pay a 10 percent surcharge on your monthly Part Bpremium for the rest of your life. In addition, you may face a gap incoverage when you do want to enroll, since you’ll have to wait untilthe next General Enrollment Period to enroll in benefits effectivethe following July 1.• Part D (prescription drug coverage): If you don’t enroll during theInitial Enrollment Period, you must maintain group or nongroupcoverage that offers prescription drug benefits at least as rich asPart D. If you don’t, you’re assessed a permanent surcharge of 1percent of the national base beneficiary premium for every monthsince your 65th birthday that your coverage isn’t what’s calledMedicare Creditable Coverage (MCC). In addition, you may face agap in coverage when you want to enroll. You’ll have to wait for thenext General Enrollment Period to enroll in benefits.15. Given the penalty, should I just enroll in Parts B and Dwhen I’m first eligible and stop contributing to my HSA?That’s a personal decision that you should discuss with your financialadvisor. While your initial reaction might be to avoid penalties atall costs, note that (1) the penalties aren’t a punishment for doingsomething illegal or immoral and (2) you may be better off financiallyby remaining in your HSA program, building HSA balances to coverfuture expenses, enjoying tax savings and later facing penalties.optumbank.comHSAs and Medicare3
Key considerations:• What’s the difference in current cost among (1) remainingcovered on my employer’s plan without enrolling in Medicare,(2) enrolling in Medicare only or (3) enrolling in bothprograms?• What’s the difference in benefits covered and financialresponsibility between enrolling in either program or bothprograms?• What tax advantages do I give up if I’m no longer HSA-eligible? Remember, you won’t be able to reduce your taxableincome through HSA contributions if you enroll in Medicare.• What will be the financial consequences of my penalties?Remember, since the penalties represent additionalpremiums, they’re eligible for income tax-free reimbursementfrom your HSA.• Will I ever enroll in Parts B and D and face those penalties, orwill I choose coverage (such as a Medicare Advantage plan)that doesn’t require enrolling in coverage and payingpremiums subject to penalties?HSAs and Medicareoptumbank.com11000 Optum Circle, Eden Prairie, MN 55344Health savings accounts (HSAs) are individual accounts offered or administered by Optum Bank®, Member FDIC, and are subject to eligibility requirements and restrictions on deposits and withdrawals to avoid IRS penalties.

Refer to your certicate for complete details, denitions, limitations, and exclusions. For more information, call 866-885-6468.Aflac can help ease the financial stress of surviving a critical illness.Chances are you may know someone who’s been diagnosed with a critical illness. You can’t help notice the difference in the person’s life—both physically and emotionally. What’s not so obvious is the impact a critical illness may have on someone’s personal finances.That’s because while a major medical plan may pay for a good portion of the costs associated with a critical illness, there are a lot of expenses that may not be covered. And, during recovery, having to worry about out-of-pocket expenses is the last thing anyone needs. That’s the benefit of an Aflac Group Critical Illness plan.It can help with the treatment costs of covered critical illnesses, such as a heart attack or stroke.More importantly, the plan helps you focus on recuperation instead of the distraction of out-of-pocket costs. With the Critical Illness plan, you receive cash benefits directly (unless otherwise assigned)—giving you the flexibility to help pay bills related to treatment or to help with everyday living expenses. But it doesn’t stop there. Having group critical illness insurance from Aflac means that you may have added financial resources to help with medical costs or ongoing living expenses.Features:• Benefits are paid directly to you, unless otherwise assigned.• Coverage is available for you, your spouse, and dependent children.• Coverage may be continued (with certain stipulations). That means you can take it with you if you changejobs or retire.How It Works: Aflac Group Critical Illness coverage is selected.Aflac Group Critical Illness pays an Initial Diagnosis Benefit of:$30,000You experience chest pains and numbness in the left arm.You visit the emergency room.A physician determines that you have suffered a heart attack.Amount payable based on $30,000 Initial Diagnosis Benefit.
The plan that can help with expenses and protect your savings.Does your major medical insurance cover all of your bills? Even a minor trip to the hospital can present you with unexpected expenses and medical bills. And even with major medical insurance, your plan may only pay a portion of your entire stay.That’s how the Aflac Group Hospital Indemnity plan can help. It provides financial assistance to enhance your current coverage. It may help avoid dipping into savings or having to borrow to address out-of-pocket-expenses major medical insurance was never intended to cover. Like transportation and meals for family members, help with child care, or time away from work, for instance.The Aflac Group Hospital Indemnity plan benefits include the following:• Hospital Confinement Benefit• Hospital Admission Benefit• Hospital Intensive Care Benefit and moreAFLAC GROUP HOSPITAL INDEMNITY The plan has limitations and exclusions that may aect benets payable.

Aflac can help you protect one of your most important assets. Your income.All too often when we hear the words disability and insurance together, it conjures up an image of a catastrophic condition that has left an individual in an incapacitated state. Be it an accident or a sickness, that’s the stereotype of a disabling injury that most of us have come to expect.What most of us don’t realize is that in addition to accidental injuries, conditions such as arthritis, heart disease, diabetes, and even pregnancy are some of the leading causes of disability that can keep you out of work and aect your income. That’s where Aflac group disability insurance can help. Our Aac group disability plan can help protect your income by oering disability benets to help you make ends meet when you are out of work. Our plan was created with you in mind and includes:• O-jobonlycoverage.• Benetsthathelpyoumaintainyourstandardofliving.The Aflac group disability plan benefits:• Benefitsarepaidwhenyouaresickorhurtandunabletowork,upto60percentofyoursalary(upto40%instateswithstatedisability).• MinimumandMaximumTotalMonthlyBenefit–$400to$3,000.• PartialDisabilityBenefit.• Twoplanoptionsavailable:– 6-monthbenefitdurationperiod/7/7dayeliminationperiod– 6-monthbenefitdurationperiod/14/14dayeliminationperiodFeatures:• Benetsarepaiddirectlytoyouunlessotherwiseassigned.• Coverageisportable.Thatmeansyoucantakeitwithyouifyouchangejobs(withcertainstipulations).• PayrollDeduction–Premiumsarepaidthroughconvenientpayrolldeduction.The plan has limitations and exclusions that may aect benets payable.

A Personal Account: How a Legal Plan helped Chris with his home purchasewere buying a home as part of our relocation to Florida. Our attorney reviewed the documents, made some suggestions and offered some good advice. Already, this was more than I expected from a contract review. However, because of confusion on the part of the title agency our closing went totally off the rails. I'll spare you the gory details,but suffice to say that our attorney was the only person in the entire process who I felt was representing my interests.
