The Company encourages participation in a Health Savings Account (HSA)
◦ An HSA is a benefit available due to our high deductible health plan
Eligibility
◦ Employees are ineligible if using Tricare or Medicare
◦ Employees using VA Health Benefits may contribute to an HSA on their own, but not through payroll deduction because you must stop contributions for 90 days after using VA Health Benefits
HSA allows employees to deduct pre-tax money from their paycheck to pay for approved medical expenses (such as prescriptions, orthodontics, doctor office costs, certain vision, dental care, and medical equipment)
◦ Use funds for yourself, your spouse, and dependents you claim on taxes
◦ NOTE: They don’t have to be on your medical plan
14
You can save an annual amount up to the limit set by the IRS
◦ Individuals $3450 and Family $6900
◦ Age 55 and older may contribute an additional $1000
Any unused money stays in your account and at retirement age transforms into an IRA account which can be used for ANY reason
You can invest your HSA funds
If you leave the company, you take your HSA funds with you
Upon death, your HSA funds will go to your named beneficiary(ies)
◦ If your spouse is named as a beneficiary, it will transfer as an HSA
◦ It transfers to other beneficiaries as income
15
In addition to paying your medical deductible and other doctor’s visit costs, check out other eligible expenses
◦ HSA-eligible expenses website : https://hsastore.com/HSA-Eligibility-List.aspx
◦ Information posted to the Employee Benefits page under Health Savings Account: http://thedispatch.us/employee-benefits/
Note that expenses incurred prior to opening your HSA account are not eligible to be paid with HSA funds
16
Your HSA is an HSA bank account with HSA Bank
◦ Be sure to respond to any correspondence from HSA Bank or they can close your account
◦ You will receive a bank card to pay for HSA-eligible items
◦ Use the bank card like a credit card, but the money comes out like a debit card
17
Use your HSA card when you pay a medical visit bill or for an HSA-eligible expense
Pay from your HSA account using online banking with HSA Bank
Reimburse yourself from your HSA online account
You can make additional deposits into your HSA account throughout the year and claim on your tax return for a refund of taxes paid on that money
◦ Do not exceed the maximum yearly contribution
18
HSA “Seed” Money is bonus/free money!
The Benefits Committee decides each year whether to offer this benefit
Participation in the Company’s wellness program qualifies you to receive “seed” funds from the Company into an HSA account
1. Complete a free wellness check with your physician
2. Complete your annual wellness lab work
3. Complete an online Physical Health Assessment (PHA)
You will need bloodwork results
You do NOT have to have an HSA account to qualify and receive the bonus
You DO have to be eligible for an HSA
Must be enrolled in Medical Benefit NLT 9/1/18 to receive 2018 bonus
19
Why use the HSA? (See table below for scenario...assumes 15% tax bracket)
• Without the HSA you will pay $202 in taxes on a $1350 deductible…$405 on $2700.
• If making $15/hr, that’s 14 hours or 27 hours of work just to earn the taxes you would have to pay.
