Medicare and Your Fidelity HSA

• Six months prior to enrolling in Medicare, you will no longer be eligible to make contributions, including catch-up contributions, to your Fidelity HSA.
• You can use funds in your Fidelity HSA to pay Medicare premiums, deductibles, co-pays, and coinsurance under any part of Medicare. If you are retired and have retiree health benefits through a former employer, you can also use your account to pay for retiree medical insurance premiums. You cannot use your account to purchase Medicare supplemental insurance, or “Medigap,” policies.
• Distributions you take after age 65 to pay for expenses other than qualified medical expenses will still be considered taxable income; however, they will no longer be subject to the 20% penalty.
