(HSA) Health Savings Accounts
HSA’s are special
tax favored savings/investment vehicles to fund medical expenses not
covered by insurance. They were created by the Medicare Prescription
Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act passed in December of 2003. It
took the IRS most of 2004 to promulgate regulations, and for insurance
companies to iron out details surrounding the companion health insurance
policies with which HSA’s are paired. Health Savings
Accounts are modeled after Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA’s).
Money for medical expenses can be deposited tax free, it can grow tax
free, and it can be spent for medical expenses tax free. And unlike
older medical reimbursement accounts, there is no “use it or lose it”
catch. The money can stay in an account that you own until you need
it. This feature makes the HSA especially valuable for helping
employees save for medical expenses in retirement. HSA’s are
established in conjunction with a High Deductible Health Plan. HDHP
premiums are much lower since the policy deductibles are higher. This is
a WIN-WIN solution for employees and small businesses.
Employees pay for more routine costs in exchange for lower premiums and
the right to establish a HSA with all its tax benefits. Important
catastrophic coverage remains. The employer pays lower benefit
costs, making drastic benefit cuts less likely. If you’re a small business owner or an employee of one, talk to your Mutual Savings Personal Banker about HSA’s. We have established a High Deductible Health Plan and Health Savings Accounts for our employee group. Our bankers have received in-depth training on HSA’s. We can help you and your employer determine if such a plan is right for your group. If you would like, we can arrange to do a “lunch and learn” educational program for you and /or your employees. |
