Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are designed to help individuals save for future qualified medical expenses on a tax-free basis.

Since 2007, HSA contributions are no longer limited to the amount of the deductible of the High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) and are instead tied to just the annual contribution limit for your type of health plan. 

Save For Future Medical Expenses on a Tax-Free Basis

Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are individually-owned accounts to which you can make tax-deductible contributions, accumulate tax-deferred earnings, and take tax-free withdrawals whenever you need to pay for qualified medical expenses.

HSAs are designed for individuals who have a high-deductible health plan (HDHP).  You can use the funds in your HSA to pay for qualified medical expenses until the deductible has been met and insurance kicks in. HSA funds can also be used to pay for qualified medical expenses that are not paid by insurance, even after the deductible has been met.
