Now that I’ve left my day job I’ll be going on ACA for the first time. I’m trying to sort through a couple options and could use your advice.
I plan to do Roth conversions over the next decade to lower taxes post 59.5yrs, which means I likely won’t be eligible for any ACA subsidies pre Medicare (I’m 54 now).
I’m wondering if a HSA is worth it at this juncture. I have up to now been a low user of medical care—generally preventative care or maybe some PT for sports injuries, but you never know. Here are my cost estimates for insurance:
Bronze PPO HSA $683, $7000 deductible
Gold HMO (PCP in network) $590, no deductible (silver $564/$3700 deductible)
I am currently under 4% SWR and not particularly looking to maximize savings at this point, but there seem to be good reasons to go for the HSA. is it worth it?
