Health Care Account Options
Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) combine a High Deductible Health insurance Plan (HDHP) with a tax-exempt trust or custodial account to pay for qualified medical expenses. The HSA is an individual health account that is owned by the employee and may be used for the payment of medical expenses that are not covered by their HDHP, including expenses that go towards satisfying the deductible. Individuals or employers may contribute on a pre-tax or post-tax basis. Pre-tax funds used for eligible healthcare expenses are tax-free to the account holder.
An HSA is similar to an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) in that the participant owns it and directs the investments. Balances in the HSA continue to accumulate in the account. Funding options including pre-tax contributions via payroll deduction or post-tax contributions via check or electronic funds transfer.

Are there investment options?
Yes, if you have more than $2,000 in your HSA, you can invest it, and any growth is generally tax free.
When are the funds available?
Your contribution amount is available as it comes out of your paycheck each pay period — so your entire contribution amount is not available at the beginning of the year or when coverage starts.
What happens if I don’t use the money during the year?
All unused funds will roll over to the next year.
You can take HSA funds with you when you leave the company or retire.
