Want to Fund Your HSA with Your IRA? Here's How
Slott Report July 14, 2016
"A [Qualified HSA Funding Distribution (QHFD)] is done by direct transfer from your IRA to your HSA. This transaction is not taxable or subject to the 10% early distribution penalty. The amount that can be transferred cannot exceed the amount you are eligible to contribute to your HSA for the year.... The amount you can move will be reduced by any HSA contributions you have already made during the year. You may only do one QHFD in your lifetime. There is an exception to this rule if you start out the year with self-only coverage and then later switch to family coverage."
