Health Savings Accounts Offer Great Benefits!

• Tax Savings: An HSA provides you with triple tax savings: (1) federal tax deductions when you contribute to your account; (2) tax-free earnings through investment, and (3) tax-free withdrawals for qualified medical expenses
• Flexibility: You can use the funds to pay for current medical expenses or save the money in your account for future qualified medical or retirement health needs
• Ownership: Funds remain in the account from year to year, just like an IRA. There are no “use it or lose it” rules with HSAs
• Portability: HSAs are completely portable, meaning you can keep your HSA or move it between financial institutions, even if you change jobs, change medical coverage, become unemployed, etc.
