A Health Savings Account (HSA) is a tax-exempt trust or custodial account established exclusively for the purpose of paying or reimbursing qualified medical expenses for yourself, your spouse, and your dependents.

You are eligible to open an HSA with a regular contribution if, with respect to any month, you:

  • Are covered under a high-deductible health plan (HDHP) on the first day of that month;
  • Are not also covered by any other health plan that is not an HDHP (with certain exceptions for plans providing preventive care and limited types of permitted insurance and permitted coverage);
  • Are not enrolled in Medicare; and
  • Cannot be claimed as a dependent on another individual’s tax return.To learn more about our HSAs and whether you are eligible, visit any of our local branches or contact us directly at 1-888-226-5747 or locally at 207-324-2285.
