Before you can establish a Health Savings Account (HSA) and make tax-advantaged HSA contributions, you must be enrolled in an HSA qualified high deductible health plan.
However, not all high deductible health plans meet the US Treasury Department’s guidelines to be considered HSA qualified. Here are a few of the requirements.
Reduced Monthly Premiums & Protection from Financial Hardship
HSA qualified health insurance plans often have higher deductibles than traditional plans, but typically have reduced out of pocket maximums. These plans typically have more affordable premiums than lower deductible plans and the money you save on premiums can help pay for everyday needs, if you have them. If the unexpected does happen, you’re protected from financial hardship – that’s what health insurance is for.
First Dollar Benefits
Affordable Care Act (ACA) compliant HSA qualified health plans give you first dollar coverage at no cost for federally mandated preventative care for adults and children, so long as they’re done in-network and coded as preventative care. These include things like routine adult physicals, well child exams, immunizations, mammogram, PSA exams and much more.
How to Find the Best HSA Qualified Health Plan
No one insurance company is the best in all situations. Things like age, zip code, tobacco use and anticipated claims for the policy year will influence which plan will be best for your specific needs.
