How Cigna HSA contributions and benefits work

Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are a valuable tool for managing healthcare costs, and Cigna offers HSA options that can help you save money while taking care of your health.

When you enroll in a Cigna HSA plan, you contribute pre-tax dollars to your account to use for qualified medical expenses. Here's how a Cigna HSA works:

• Contributions: You and/or your employer can contribute funds to your HSA throughout the year up to the IRS limits.
• Investment Opportunities: Some Cigna HSA plans offer the option to invest your HSA funds for potential growth over time.
• Withdrawals: You can withdraw funds from your HSA tax-free for qualified medical expenses such as doctor visits, prescriptions, and more.
• Rolling Over: Any unused funds in your HSA roll over year after year, so you never lose the money you contribute.
• Portability: Your Cigna HSA is portable, meaning you can take it with you if you change jobs or health insurance providers.

It's important to note that to be eligible for a Cigna HSA, you must be enrolled in a high-deductible health plan (HDHP). HDHPs typically have lower monthly premiums than traditional health plans, making them a cost-effective option for many individuals and families.
