    What’s a Health Savings Account?

    If you’re enrolled in a high-deductible health plan (HDHP), you can use a Health Savings Account to save and pay for qualified medical expenses. An HSA is a tax-advantaged savings account—contributions are typically taken from your paycheck pretax, the interest and earnings are tax deferred, and, if you use the money for qualified medical expenses, the withdrawals are tax free.

    Why should I open an HSA?

    HSAs offer triple tax advantages and can be used as a long-term tool for savings. Your balance will roll over each year, so it’s yours (not your employer’s!) to take through job changes, life changes, and retirement.
     
    Then, at age 65, you’ll be able to use the funds you’ve saved in your HSA for both qualified and nonqualified expenses. The nonqualified expenses will be taxed, but you won’t receive the 20% penalty that’s incurred before the age of 65.

    Interest rates affect how much we pay for the money we borrow and how much we make on the money we save. For instance, you may pay a 20% annual percentage rate (APR) on money you borrow using a credit card. At the same time, you may make a 3% annual percentage yield (APY) on the money you save in a savings account.
