A Health Savings Account (HSA) is an account that you can put money into to
save for future medical expenses. HSAs have many advantages, including
flexibility, portability and triple tax savings*. Any adult can contribute
to an HSA if they:
- Have coverage under an HSA-qualified “high deductible health plan” (HDHP)
- Have no other first dollar medical coverage
- Are not enrolled in Medicare
- Cannot be claimed as a dependent on someone else’s tax return
The Home Loan Savings Bank’s HSA accounts are designed to help you grow your
account through investment earnings. Our HSA has no monthly service fee,
earns interest on balances over $500.00, and your first order of checks is
free. In addtion, our HSA provides very flexible options such as a debit
card and free online access via our robust Online Banking system.
