Hi all. QQ. I have some med bills coming for 2019 already. I don't know the total yet but let's say $3000. I have the money to pay it out of pocket, but I also have an HSA account and an eligible HSA healthcare plan. Typically my contributions go through my employer, but it is spread out over the year and there is not $3000 in there yet. I want to know if I can put in the $3000 in one lump sum, use the HSA to pay the med bill that way, and write off the $3000 next year on my taxes? My gut says this should be fine, almost like an IRA contribution, as long as I don't exceed the max limit for the year. Sound about right?
Thanks.
