Health Savings Account (HSA)

A high-deductible health plan (HDHP), coupled with an HSA gives you a way to pay for qualified medical expenses and build your savings for the future.

You, your employer, or both can deposit tax-free money into an HSA. Best of all, unused funds roll over year to year!

NOTE: A high deductible health plan and an HSA are two separate entities.  You can have a HDHP and choose not to pair it with an HSA.  However, in order to have an HSA you must have a HDHP.

HSA Benefits

Lower taxes - contributions to your account and the interest it earns are tax-deductible.

Freedom of choice - the funds belong to you, so if you leave your current plan or employer, your HSA follows you and is still available for use

Long-term growth potential - unused money rolls over year to year and earns tax-free interest. It also gives you an investment opportunity.

Convenience - money can easily be withdrawn by check or debit card to pay for qualified medical expenses.

Additional cash at retirement - when you reach age 65, any money in your account is available to you to spend as you choose, subject to normal taxes.
