Health Savings Account

Health Savings Accounts (HAS) are designed to help you manage your funds for out-of-pocket health care expenses. HSAs are available solely for individuals who have a high deductible health plan (HDHP). The account is a tool that allows you to pay for future qualified medical and retiree health expenses on a tax-free basis. Any adult can contribute to an HSA if they:

  • Have coverage under an HSA qualified “high deductible health plan”.
  • Have no other first-dollar medical coverage.
  • Are not enrolled in Medicare.
  • Can not be claimed as a dependent on someone else’s tax return.

The advantage of an HSA is:

  • Security – Your high deductible insurance and HSA protect you against high or unexpected medical bills.
  • Affordability – You should be able to lower your health insurance premiums by switching to health insurance coverage with a higher deductible.
  • Flexibility – You can use the funds for current medical expenses or save for future expenses.
  • Ownership – Funds remain in the account from year to year, just like an IRA. There are no “use it or lose it” rules for HSA.
  • Tax Savings – A HSA provides you triple tax savings. Tax deductions when you contribute to your account; tax-free earnings on the account; and tax-free withdrawals for qualified medical expenses.

Special Purpose Savings

Life events can be costly. Weddings, vacations, … the list goes on. You can create up 9 savings accounts designated for a special purpose. With a special purpose saving account, you can save more with the old adage of “out of sight, out of mind”. With funds separated from your regular savings or checking, you are less likely to dip in the account unexpectedly.
