Let\u2019s break down how this works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Save for Healthcare Expenses?<\/strong> Absolutely! An HSA lets you take all or a portion of the money you save in premiums and invest it for future healthcare expenses. It happens automatically from your bank account, so you can set it and forget it until you need the money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What\u2019s an HSA?<\/strong> It\u2019s actually an investment account specifically for saving dollars to use for healthcare. What makes it great is that the dollars you invest are generally pre-tax dollars \u2013 they have not been taxed and will not be taxed when you use them for eligible expenses. You can also contribute to your HSA post-tax and get the same tax savings by claiming the deduction when filing your annual taxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What if I don\u2019t have expenses this year?<\/strong> No worries! It\u2019s your money, and whatever you don\u2019t use this year will roll over to the next year, and the next.
