Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are a great way to save money and budget for qualified medical expenses. HSAs are tax-advantaged savings accounts that accompany high deductible health plans (HDHPs). HDHPs offer lower monthly premiums in exchange for a higher deductible (the amount you pay before insurance kicks in).
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF AN HSA?
There are many benefits of using an HSA, including the following:
- It saves you money. HDHPs have lower monthly premiums, meaning less money is being taken out of your paycheck.
- It is portable. The money in your HSA is carried over from year to year and is yours to keep, even if you leave the company.
- It is a tax-saver. HSA contributions are made with pre-tax dollars. Since your taxable income is decreased by your contributions, you’ll pay less in taxes.
- Additional Retirement Savings. After age 65, funds can be withdrawn for any purpose without penalty (only income tax is assessed).
- Investment Opportunities. Once you have a balance of $1,000 in your HSA account, you can self-direct investments that can potentially grow your savings for healthcare or retirement.
