💰 What an HSA Is and How It Works at a Hospital

The tax-free account that can pay your deductible and copays.

Understanding Your Health Savings Account

  • A **Health Savings Account** (HSA) is a personal bank account for medical expenses.
  • You can only open one if you have a **High Deductible Health Plan**, which is insurance with lower monthly premiums but higher out-of-pocket costs.
  • Money in this account stays with you even if you change jobs or insurance plans.
  • It serves as a dedicated financial buffer for your healthcare needs.
