Some State Insurance Laws May Conflict with HSA Eligibility Requirements

Key points:

  • To be HSA-eligible, individuals must have a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) and meet federal deductible requirements.
  • Some states exempt HDHPs from these third-party payment rules, preserving HSA eligibility.
  • However, states like Arizona, Arkansas, and Tennessee lack such exemptions, potentially making residents ineligible for HSA contributions.
  • The IRS has indicated that including third-party payments in deductible calculations could disqualify enrollees from HSA contributions.
  • Individuals who incorrectly contribute to an HSA while ineligible may face tax penalties.
