Health Savings Accounts
A Health Savings Account, or HSA is a tax-advantaged medical savings account available to taxpayers in the United States who are enrolled in a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP). The funds contributed to the account are not subject to federal income tax at the time of deposit. Unlike a flexible spending account (FSA), funds roll over and accumulate year to year if not spent. HSAs are owned by the individual, which differentiates them from the company-owned Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA) that is an alternate tax-deductible source of funds paired with HDHPs. HSA funds may currently be used to pay for qualified medical expenses at any time without federal tax liability or penalty.
A Health Savings Account (HSA) from First American Bank is a great way to save for your health care deductible, while taking advantage of tax savings. First American offers two types of HSA accounts: HSA and HSA Plus (see the comparison chart below).
