Distribution Rules

Distributions are tax-free if they are taken for “qualified medical expenses”

Accounts can only be used for expenses that are incurred on or after the date the account was established

Funds can be used for expenses from a prior year, as long as the expenses incurred on or after the date the account was established

Distributions can be taken for qualified medical expenses

for the following people:

The account holder (employee covered by the HDHP)

Spouse of account holder (even if not covered by the

HDHP)

Dependent Children

HSA: Tax Dependents of that individual

For individuals age 65 and older, HSA distributions can be

used for non-qualified medical expenses without facing

the 20 percent penalty

However, income taxes will apply for non-medical

distributions

This rule is regardless of whether the individual is

enrolled in Medicare

13

Page 14: NationalONE $2700-100% - ISD 622...Over-the-counter drugs, only if you obtain a prescription Insulin (with or without a prescription) Dental and vision care Select insurance premiums

Qualified Medical Expenses

The IRS defines expenses that are considered “qualified medical

expenses” for HSA distributions

Expenses must be primarily to treat or prevent a physical or

mental defect or illness

If you use HSA funds for expenses beyond what the IRS defines as

qualified, you will be subject to income tax on the distribution

and an additional 20 percent penalty

Examples of qualified medical expenses:

Most medical care that is subject to your deductible (copays,

coinsurance, doctor visits, inpatient or outpatient treatment, etc.)

Prescription drugs

Over-the-counter drugs, only if you obtain a prescription

Insulin (with or without a prescription)

Dental and vision care

Select insurance premiums

COBRA, qualified long-term care insurance, health insurance

premiums paid while receiving unemployment benefits,

health insurance after you turn 65 except for a Medicare

supplemental policy

Examples of not considered “qualified medical expenses”:

Insurance premiums (other than the exceptions listed above)

Over-the-counter drugs (unless a prescription is retained from a

physician – insulin is an exception)

Cosmetic procedures such as teeth whitening

A full list of qualified medical expenses is available at www.hellofurther.com or

from the Benefits office

whenever you first become eligible for the HSA (even if

that is in December)

However, you must remain eligible for at least 12

months after that date, or you will be subject to taxes

and penalties on the amount you contributed

For individuals ages 55 and older, the IRS allows

additional “catch-up contributions”

Eligible individuals may contribute an extra $1,000 for

the calendar year (for 2019)
