Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) Health Savings Account (HSA) insurance is a type of health plan that combines the benefits of an HMO with the tax advantages of an HSA. HMO plans require members to choose a primary care physician and get referrals to see specialists.
With an HSA, individuals can contribute pre-tax dollars to pay for eligible medical expenses. It offers a triple tax advantage: tax-deductible contributions, tax-deferred growth, and tax-free withdrawals for qualified medical expenses.
