Health Savings Accounts
If you are covered by a high-deductible health plan, you may be able to contribute annually to an HSA – a highly flexible savings account that allows you to put money aside for medical expenses. Your account will follow you no matter where you are employed, and your employer may even be able to make contributions on your behalf.
In addition to earning a higher rate of interest than a Regular Savings Account, an HSA can provide tax benefits, the funds can be used to pay for any qualified medical expenses and best of all – the funds roll over from year to year! Your account comes with a Visa debit card, as well as the ability to write checks.
High-Deductible Health Plan Requirements:
- Your health plan must meet the IRS minimum deductible requirements.
- Your plan’s out-of-pocket maximum must fall within IRS limits.
- You generally cannot have other health coverage that is not HSA-compatible.
- You cannot be enrolled in Medicare.
- You cannot be claimed as a dependent on someone else’s tax return.
If you are unsure whether your health plan qualifies as an HDHP, please consult a tax advisor.
