order. Not good with any other offers.
WHAT IS AN HSA?
From Our Family to Yours, HSAs are like any oth-
er savings account, ex-
Merry Christmas! cept they can be used for
medical, vision and den-
tal expenses. HSAs are
tax-advantaged, meaning
that income can be depos-
ited into an HSA before it
is taxed. HSAs can only be
opened and used in con-
junction with a high-de-
ductible health insurance
plan, or those with a de-
ductible of at least $1,300
for an individual or $2,600
for a family.

HSA DETAILS AND
ELIGIBILITY

REQUIREMENTS
Although HSAs have
contribution limits, they’re
advantageous in that the
savings accumulated can
be used to pay for non-
covered, qualified medical
expenses, such as copays,
vision and dental care and
even deductibles.
HSAs may be estab-
lished through an employ-
er-sponsored insurance
plan or through a bank or
other financial institution.
To qualify, a person must
be under the age of 65
and have a high-deducible
health insurance plan.

ADVANTAGES AND
DISADVANTAGES OF HSAS?

There are advantages
and disadvantages to HSAs.
HSA account holders can
control how their saved
money is spent, and there’s
no risk of losing the money
at the end of the year be-
cause it rolls over. Taxes
are not paid on money going
into the HSA. In addition,
employers can contribute to
HSAs, and account holders
do not lose their balances
when they change jobs.

Disadvantages include
the challenge of setting
aside money to put into the
HSA, especially if finances
are tight.
