2015 Health Savings Account Limits
2015 Health Savings Account Limits
The savings limits for the ever-popular Health Savings Accounts (HSA) are now set for 2015. The new limits are outlined here with current year amounts noted for comparison purposes.
What is an HSA?
An HSA is a tax advantaged savings account to pay for qualified health care costs. The contributions are made on a pre-tax basis. There is no tax on the funds contributed, the interest earned, or investment gains as long as the funds are used to pay for qualified medical, dental, and vision expenses. To qualify for this tax-advantaged account you must be enrolled in a “high deductible” health insurance program as defined by HSA rules.

Note: To qualify for an HSA you must have a qualified High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP). To qualify, a plan must meet minimum deductible requirements that are typically higher than traditional health insurance. In addition, your coverage must have reasonable out-of-pocket payment limits as set by the above noted maximums.
Not sure what an HSA is all about? Check with your employer. If they offer this option in their health care benefits, they will have information discussing the program and its potential benefits.
Please give us a call to discuss these and other profit-boosting ideas for your business.
