A Health Savings Account (HSA) is a personal account you can use to pay for current and future qualified medical expenses tax-free. To open and contribute to a HSA, you must be enrolled in a High-Deductible Health Plan (HDHP). The account belongs to you and stays with you even if you change jobs or health insurance plans.
Is it right for me?
A HSA compatible health plan and HSA may be a good option for you if you want to lower your health insurance premiums and pay for out-of-pocket medical expenses with tax-free funds; you’re self-employed; you or your family have ongoing qualified medical expenses not covered by insurance or you are planning on elective surgeries and other procedures not covered by standard health insurance but are considered qualified medical expenses.
Benefits of a HSA:
Freedom of choice over your health care decisions
Pay for qualified medical expenses tax-free*
Grow your money tax-free*
Tax deductible contributions*
Reduced health insurance premiums
You own the account, even if you change jobs or health plans
No “use it or lose it” rule: unused funds carry over each year
