It’s your health. Manage it with a Health Savings Account

(HSA). A Health Savings Account (HSA) is a special account where

you save money, tax-free, to cover certain healthcare costs. It works

with an HSA-compatible health plan. With contributions that grow

and earn interest over time, an HSA is to healthcare what a 401K is

to retirement. And with balances that rollover year-to-year, you’ll have

constant access to your HSA funds and you’ll never lose the money.

HSA-compatible health plan. To sign up for an HSA, you

must be enrolled in an HSA-compatible health plan.

• Lower premium, higher deductible

• Prescription drug costs count towards the max out-of-pocket

• Expenses after max out-of-pocket are covered at 100%

To determine if your current health plan is HSA-compatible,

contact your health plan provider.

We build your HSA around you. And confi dence is built in.

We’re a leader in the HSA industry because the first thing we do

is help you to understand how your HSA can best benefit you and

your family. We’ve been working this way since HSAs were first

offered in 1997. You can feel safe and secure, knowing we take

your healthcare needs to heart and we have the experience and

expertise to serve you right.

Managing your account is easy. With 24-hour access to Internet

Banking, you can choose how you want to transfer funds, review

statements and account balances, initiate transfers, and access

year-to-date information and tax documents. You can also take

“ Like a 401K for your healthcare, except you

can use your HSA money whenever you need to

for medical expenses.”

START SAVING TODAY -

3 EASY STEPS

1

Here are a few things to keep in mind:• Be sure all network discounts are applied before making a payment.

Usually you’ll need to wait for an Explanation of Benefi ts (EOB) from

your health plan.

• HSAs have a low-premium, high deductible structure, making the

payment process different from traditional health plans. If you are

required to make a payment at the time of service, but have not had

a chance to build your HSA funds, consider the following options:

1. Pay your entire bill with another payment method, like your bank

account. Or split up the cost by making a partial payment from

your HSA.

2. Contact your healthcare provider and request a payment plan.

For large expenses, healthcare providers will generally provide

low interest payment plans.

3. No matter what payment method you choose, you can accumulate

HSA funds over time and pay yourself back when you are ready.

• Payments made for prescriptions count towards your maximum

out-of-pocket expenses. Once you reach your maximum,

prescriptions will be covered 100%.

• For out-of-network or large expenses, consider using a claims

negotiation service to assist in reducing your bill.

Visit www.hsabank.com for more information.

Your responsibility. Keeping yourself informed will help make the most of your

HSA and get the care you deserve.

• Your physician can help discuss alternatives

• Price shop to ensure the best value

• Empower yourself, utilizing resources online and

through your health plan

• Protect your savings by staying healthy and keeping active

• Finding prescription drug options can save you money

Verify you are eligible.

You must be covered under an HSA-

compatible health plan, not be enrolled

in Medicare or other non-compatible plans,

and not be claimed as a dependent on

another person’s tax return.

Even a little goes a long way.

With a Health Savings Account (HSA), you

experience tax savings on contributions and

tax-deferred growth on the earnings. Whether you are

saving the maximum or only a portion each year, your

HSA dollars can grow. Think about what you could gain

over the years by saving even $100 or $200 a month.

Calculate your savings potential.

These examples demonstrate the potential for savings

and account growth. To calculate approximate savings

based on your specifi c circumstances, use our Future
