A First Virginia Community Bank Health Savings Account (HSA) is a tax-advantaged account designed to help account holders pay for qualified medical expenses now and in the future. Used in conjunction with a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP), the account offers several financial advantages.
Benefits to Individuals:
Individuals gain flexibility in managing their health and their money through:
- Tax-deductible contributions,
- Tax-free earnings on the HSA,
- Tax-free withdrawals from the HSA for qualified medical expenses, and
- Accumulation of HSA funds and earnings that roll over year to year
Benefits to Employers:
Employers can save on health insurance by adopting a High Deductible Health Plan combined with an HSA. The bottom line result:
- Lower premiums for the employee health care plan
- A reduction in payroll taxes – all contributions to the HSA are pre-tax, thus lowering the gross payroll
This is a tax-advantage account designed for paying qualified out-of-pocket medical expenses in conjunction with a high deductible health care plan.*
