    What are the benefits of a Health Savings Account?

    Tax Free Benefits
      HSA's allow you to make contributions and earn interest tax free and your distributions are tax free as long as they are used for qualified medical expenses.
    Flexibility in Spending
      You can use your Health Savings Account to help pay for any qualified medical expenses. These can include health insurance deductibles and co-payments to certain over-the-counter medications as well as out-of-pocket expenses.
    Year-to-Year Savings
      Health Savings Accounts are not a "use it or lose it" account. The balance of your HSA will roll over from year to year. This will allow you to budget for your health expenses and build up your savings to cover qualified medical expenses when the need arises.
    Individual Ownership
      You own your HSA, not your employer. It does not matter what job you have, whether or not your employer makes contributions, or if you are moving to a new job. Your HSA will always be with you.
    Contribution Options
      Your employer may choose to make contributions to employee Health Savings Accounts as an added benefit to you.
    To Apply
      Print the application and mail it to us or bring it in along with your opening deposit.
    Before You Apply
      We recommend that you consult your tax advisor regarding the benefits of an HSA. Contributions are subject to IRS rules. You are responsible for making sure the distributions from your HSA are made according to IRS rules.
