Stop Penalizing Working Seniors Act
This bill allows seniors over 65 who only have Medicare Part A hospital insurance (and no other Medicare coverage) to contribute to Health Savings Accounts (HSAs). Currently, Medicare beneficiaries cannot contribute to HSAs, but this bill removes that restriction for seniors enrolled solely in Part A. The change amends the tax code to exclude these individuals from the existing HSA contribution ban during periods they have only Part A coverage. The provision takes effect for tax years beginning after December 31, 2024.
