A Medicare Set-Aside arrangement is created from the settlement of a worker's compensation or liability case. The account is created by using a part of the settlement to be used to pay future medical expenses that are related to the job or injury and would otherwise be payable by Medicare. A structured MSA features annual payments via an annuity. This is a complicated area and you should get expert advice before spending the funds "on anything".

Can you pay for Medicare Insurance through an FSA?

Yes, you can pay your Medicare Part B or Part D premiums using funds from your Flexible Spending Account (FSA). If you have an FSA, you must also have an employer-based plan. So Medicare Part B and Part D might be unnecessary, since your employer plan probably already covers hospital services and prescription drugs. Nevertheless, you can pay for your Medicare coverage with FSA funds.
