If you’re wondering about the high
out-of-pocket expenses you might run into if you enroll in a HSA-qualified
health plan, you’ll be put at ease knowing a HSA from Community Financial is a
great asset to build a safety net for costs due to catastrophic medical
expenses or an unexpected trip to a doctor or hospital.
There are many tax advantages that come
along with opening a HSA. With a HSA from Community Financial, you can fund
your account through tax-deductible contributions. All interest earned on the
funds you’ve saved is tax-deferred as well. The distributions you make from
your HSA are tax-free when spent on qualified medical expenses. Community
Financial will even provide you with a debit card to make paying medical
expenses from your HSA easier.
Unlike a Flexible Spending Account, money
you don't use in your HSA during a calendar year will remain until the next,
and continue to accrue interest until you use it. There’s no need to worry at
the end of the year to spend what's left in your account.
As always, we recommend you check with your
tax advisor to make sure a Health Savings Account is right for you.
