Trump budget would provide new HSA benefits
President Donald Trump's proposed budget might make it easier for seniors to save for health-care costs on a tax-free basis. The proposal would allow beneficiaries to make tax-deductible contributions to health savings accounts "associated with high-deductible health plans offered by their employers or a Medicare Advantage plan."
Current law keeps Medicare beneficiaries from making new contributions to HSAs, but they can still use money in the account to pay for health-care expenses.
HSAs allow you to save money either on a pre-tax or tax-deductible basis, have it accumulate interest free of taxes and then make tax-free withdrawals to pay for qualified medical expenses.They are offered in conjunction with high-deductible health plans, which come with a deductible of at least $1,350 for self-only coverage or $2,700 for family plans in 2019. In 2019, account holders can contribute up to $3,500 if they have self-only health coverage ($7,000 for family plans), plus an additional $1,000 if they're over age 55.
Finally, you can roll over your HSA balance from one year to the next, meaning you can grow your account for an extended period of time.
