      HEALTH SAVINGS ACCOUNT (HSA) ABC Company will continue to contribute an annual total of $1,000 for a single and $2,500 for a family to your HSA account. The contribution will be made on a monthly basis. A health savings account (HSA) is a health care account and savings account in one. The main purpose of this account is to offset the cost of a qualifying high deductible health plan (HDHP) and provide savings for your out-of-pocket eligible health care expenses – those you and your tax dependents may have now, in the future, and during your retirement. This is a “portable” account. You own your HSA! It’s included in your employee benefits package, but after you set up your account, it’s yours to keep, even if you changejobsorretire. OnceyourHSAisestablished, money is contributed to your account by you, ABC Companyorfriends and family, and you can then use your HSA dollars tax-free to pay for eligible health care expenses. You save money on expenses you’re already paying for, like doctors’ office visits, prescription drugs, and much more. Best of all, you decide how and when to use your HSA dollars. WHY IS IT A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE AN HSA? HSAs benefit everyone who is eligible to have this account – single individuals, families, and soon- to-be retirees. You save money on taxes in three ways: Tax-free deposits Tax-free earnings Tax-free withdrawals Setting aside pre-tax dollars into your HSA you pay fewer taxes and increase your take-home pay by your tax savings. You save money on eligible expenses that you are paying for out of your pocket. The amount you save depends on your tax bracket. For example, if you are in the 30 percent tax bracket, you can save $30 on every $100 spent on eligible health care expenses. HSAfunds roll over from year to year and accumulate in your account. There is no “use-it-or-lose-it” rule with HSAs, and you decide how and when to use your HSA funds, which can be used for eligible expenses you have now, in the future, or during retirement. And when you have a certain balance in your HSA, investment opportunities are available. For 2020 you can contribute up to $3,550 as a single or $7,100 as a family.
