About Hsa

A health savings account (HSA) is a personal savings account that can be used to pay for qualified medical expenses. HSAs are available to individuals who are enrolled in a high deductible health plan (HDHP). Contributions to an HSA are tax-deductible, the money in the account grows tax-free, and withdrawals for qualified medical expenses are tax-free.

To be eligible to open an HSA, you must be enrolled in an HDHP and cannot be covered by any other health plan that is not an HDHP, or be eligible for Medicare. You also cannot be claimed as a dependent on someone else's tax return.

HSAs offer a way for individuals to save for future medical expenses and potentially save on taxes. It's important to keep in mind that money in an HSA belongs to the account holder and can be carried over from year to year, even if the account holder changes jobs or health insurance plans.
