What is the HSA program?

A fast-growing type of health benefit

At the start of 2011, more than 11.4 million Americans were covered by HDHP/HSAs. They are the fastest-growing type of CDH plan and are expected to grow even faster under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. An HDHP generally has lower premiums and a higher deductible than traditional health plans.

An HSA combined with an HDHP

The Charter One HSA is designed to work with a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP). HDHP/HSA programs are part of the Consumer-Directed Healthcare (CDH) trend in health benefits. They share more of the responsibility for the cost of health coverage with the employee. They can also offer more choices, control, and potential savings.

Tax-advantaged Health Savings Accounts

Health Savings Accounts are individually owned accounts. Employees can to set aside money for out-of-pocket medical expenses incurred before the HDHP deductible is reached. HSAs can be funded tax-free, up to allowable limits. Balances grow tax-free. Withdrawals are also tax-free as long as the money is used for IRS-qualified medical expenses.
