HR 7435 United States House · 117th Congress

Health Savings for Seniors Act

This bill allows Medicare beneficiaries to contribute to Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) without losing eligibility. It amends the tax code to treat Medicare coverage as an "HSA-qualified health plan," removing the prior barrier that prevented Medicare enrollees from using HSAs. Specifically, it excludes Medicare premiums from HSA out-of-pocket expense calculations and updates IRS definitions to include Medicare as HSA-compatible. This directly affects seniors enrolled in Medicare Part A or Part B who previously could not contribute to HSAs.
