Beneficiary Issues. If you die and your beneficiary is your spouse, your HSA (or the relevant portion thereof) will become your spouse’s HSA as of the date of your death. If your beneficiary is not your spouse, the HSA (or the relevant portion thereof) will cease to be an HSA as of the date of your death. If the beneficiary is your estate, the fair market value of the account as of your date of death is taxable on your final tax return. For other beneficiaries, the fair market value of the account is taxable to that beneficiary in the tax year that includes the date of death.
