Employee Health Savings Account (HSA)

If you have a high-deductible health plan and want to put money aside for any unexpected medical bills, a Health Savings Account (HSA) might be for you. Eligible contributions made to your HSA are fully tax-deductible, earnings are tax-deferred and distributions used to pay for qualified medical expenses are tax-free. All unused contributions stay in your account, earning tax-deferred interest.

We recommend that you consult with your tax advisor regarding the tax advantages of an HSA.
