How do HSA accounts work?
A Health Savings Account is a savings product for TFCU members that are enrolled in a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP). HSAs enable you to pay for current health expenses and save for future qualified medical and retiree health expenses on a tax-free basis. You own and control the money in your HSA, whether you use it now or save it for the future.
Qualified medical expenses are services that are typically covered by a health care plan, such as office visits, emergency room services and hospitalization. Qualified medical expenses also include prescription drugs and many over-the-counter drugs, vision expenses including eyeglasses and contact lenses, medical plan deductibles and copays, as well as non-cosmetic dental expenses, which a health savings account would be useful. For complete list of allowable health expenses, please see IRS Publication 502 Medical and Dental Expenses available online under :Forms and Publications" at www.irs.gov or by calling 1-800-829-3676.
Who is eligible for a Health Savings Account?
To be eligible for a Health Savings Account, an individual must be covered by HSA-qualified Florida High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) and must not be covered by other health insurance that is not an HDHP.
