“HSAs provide financial security and the flexibility to pay for a wide variety of specialty and everyday healthcare needs,” said Itamar Romanini, vice president and general manager of HSA Store, a Health-E Commerce online brand. “We take pride in delivering a guess-free shopping experience and industry-leading educational resources that allow account holders to make the most of their tax-free funds and to flex their HSA to meet their personal lifestyle needs.”
New HSA Store Learning Center resources for open enrollment include a self-guided, interactive module that teaches individuals and families the basics of HSAs and helps them identify how they can personally benefit from enrolling in and using an HSA. A second module walks individuals through a comparison of flexible spending accounts FSAs vs. HSAs to help them make informed decisions about which account to enroll in during the annual open enrollment election period. Additional resources available at HSA Store include:
- Comprehensive, searchable HSA eligibility list;
- HSA Tax Savings Calculator and Projected Future Value Calculator;
- My HSA Expense Dashboard to simplify recording HSA expenses for tax purposes;
- Educational articles and Ask the Experts tips;
- HSA Your Way Style Guide; and
- HSA Perks Dashboard to track savings earned from HSA Store purchases.
“Our mission at HSA Store is singular and constant: To simplify tax-free healthcare accounts. We achieve this through educational content that is informed by our proprietary consumer insights, and by offering HSA-eligible products and telehealth services that reflect the needs and interests of account holders,” said Romanini. “For our team and for consumers who shop with us, every day is HSA Day.”
What is an HSA?
An HSA is a tax advantaged account that allows users to set aside pre-tax income to cover qualified medical expenses. HSAs can be used to pay for a wide variety of eligible expenses, including everyday healthcare products, copayments, prescription and OTC medications, telehealth services, and more. HSAs reduce an account holder’s taxable income. HSA funds always belong to the account holder, and unused funds roll over from year to year and can be used in retirement. An individual or family can enroll in an HSA through an employer-sponsored benefit or individually, as long as they are enrolled in a qualified high-deductible health plan.
