Health Savings Account (HSA) Resources
Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are a great way to pay for current and future healthcare expenses. HSAs offer a triple tax advantage where contributions are tax deductible or pre-tax if made through payroll contributions, interest earned is tax free and withdrawals are tax free as long as they are used for qualified medical expenses. Once a threshold is reached, there is an opportunity to invest in a variety of mutual funds. This site includes information to help you decide if an HSA is right for you in addition to resources to help manage your HSA and plan for future savings. We have included videos, calculators, forms, and resources in addition to a list of frequently asked questions.

How to Use Your HSA Account
Using your HSA is easy. You can use HSA funds for a trip to the pharmacy, a visit to the dentist or doctor, and hundreds of other qualified medical expenses. There are two ways to use your HSA: You can use the HSA debit card provided to you to pay for a qualified medical expense at checkout or you can wait until you receive your Explanation of Benefits from your insurance company to compare with the bill from your healthcare provider. You can then pay for the bill using your HSA funds.
