re: HSA v. Roth IRA

Other than making a transfer of funds and using Roth contributions to fund an HSA, not that I'm aware. I suppose that if you're above 59 1/2, you could. But I don't think that's what you're asking.
Why not just fully fund the HSA, independent of the IRA?

Thanks for the reply. I have no income this year because I resigned from my job due to diabetes. Have an attorney trying to get me my long term disability and I think I will be successful but it is a long process. I am drawing from my 401K at this time to pay my living expenses and thought if I could transfer money into an HSA from my IRA, once I convert my 401K that I would not have to pay taxes on my medical bills which are fairly high. I do not know all the details so I was hoping someone would be familiar with this option. I have a high deductible hospital plan now but do not know what will happen to my HSA once I am eligible for medicare. Any information would be appreciated.

I'm sincerely sorry to hear about your situation. I wish that I could help, but that's beyond my knowledge. Perhaps Poodlebrain or one of the other tax experts here could assist.
Best wishes.
