Suggestions for Maximizing Your MSA's Value

Take full advantage of what makes a Medicare MSA plan so special, and make the plan work for you.

Have a plan to manage your health

It’s expensive to be unhealthy! Work with your care team to establish an individualized care plan, and focus your efforts on good preventive medicine.

Avoid using MSA funds on non-qualified expenses

Unless you’ve accounted for the extra tax and penalty implications, aim for not spending the funds on any non-qualified expenses.

Consider investing excess balance

If your Optum Financial medical savings account balance is over $2,000, you should speak with your financial advisor about investing the excess balance in other investment vehicles.

Be a savvy health shopper

For expenses not covered by Medicare, inquire about pricing before incurring a service. Ask other providers their cost for the same service to find lower pricing.

Confirm that your provider accepts the MSA before you need care
