  • Most individuals will find that deferring Part B is in their best interest. Therefore, they will need to contact Social Security to do so.  It will be important to reach back out to Social Security at least three months prior to the first of the month following your retirement (unless instructed otherwise by RESIG) to enroll with Part B once you’re in retired status.

Please reach out to your RESIG Benefits Specialist for more details about Medicare and HSAs and consult a tax professional to be sure your HSA is in compliance with Federal laws.
