Health Savings Account
Use the Health Savings Account tab to view existing HSA selections or to make new ones.
You can access this tab on the Benefits Enrollment or the Life Events/New Hires screen.
To enroll in an HSA, you must not be enrolled in or covered by another health plan (unless it is a high-deductible health plan), claimed as a dependent on another person's tax return, entitled to Medicare benefits, or enrolled in or covered by an FSA (unless it is a limited purpose FSA). You must also enter direct deposit information for the HSA account on the Direct Deposit screen. Employees who will turn 55 at any point during the year may select a Catch Up contribution during Benefits Enrollment.
