Health savings accounts

Paired with a high-deductible health plan, an HSA gives employees a tax-advantaged way to pay for care now and save for later.

How does an HSA work?

A health savings account (HSA) is an employee-owned account paired with an HSA-qualified high-deductible health plan. Contributions go in pre-tax, grow tax-free and come out tax-free for qualified medical expenses. Unlike an FSA, the balance rolls over every year and stays with the employee if they leave. The IRS sets annual contribution limits, and employers can contribute too.

Frequently asked questions

Who can contribute to an HSA?

Anyone covered by an HSA-qualified high-deductible health plan who has no other disqualifying coverage (such as a general FSA or Medicare) and isn't claimed as someone else's dependent.

Does HSA money expire?

No. The balance rolls over every year and belongs to the employee, even after they leave your company.

Can employees use HSA money for telehealth?

Yes. Telehealth is a qualified medical expense, and HSA-qualified plans may cover it before the deductible without affecting eligibility.
