HSAs for Retirement Planning
HSAs can be used as an additional option for retirement planning.
Because there is no use-it-or-lose-it requirement, unused balances can carry forward into retirement, tax free. A consumer can spend out of pocket for medical expenses while working, and save the balance in the HSA for retirement for any purpose and the funds are considered regular income.
