• Contributions to an HSA are tax-deductible, and the funds can be used tax-free for qualified medical expenses.
• Any unused funds in your HSA roll over year after year, unlike a Flexible Spending Account (FSA).
• You own the HSA account, so it stays with you even if you change jobs or health insurance plans.
