Health Saving Account (HSA)
A Health Savings Account (HSA) combines high deductible health insurance with a tax-favored savings account. Money in the savings account can help pay the deductible. And money left in the savings account earns interest and is yours to keep.
For 2025, you can contribute up to $4,300 as a single and $8,550 if you enroll as a family. Additionally, if you are age 55 or older, you are eligible to make a catch-up contribution of $1,000.
You may elect to change your contribution amount at any time throughout the year!

Why did I get billed for my preventive care visit?While regular medical care focuses on treating illness, preventive care aims to keep you from getting sick in the first place by focusing on helping you maintain good health. When you visit your doctor for a preventive care service - like a physical exam or a health screening - you should not be billed. However, if you ask your doctor about a specific health concern while you are at your preventive care visit, it may be billed as an office visit, and not a preventive care visit. Here’s how to be sure your preventive care visit is free for you: Mention prevention upfront – When scheduling your appointment, confirm that you are scheduling a preventive care visit. Know what to discuss with your doctor during the visit – During your visit, keep the conversation focused on how you can maintain a healthy lifestyle. Ask your doctor - If you do ask questions about a specific health concern while at your visit, ask your doctor if that will be treated as an office visit or as a preventive visit. Let your doctor know you are expecting this visit to be of no charge to you. For more information about preventive care, contact your Lacher benefits advocate.

Why is the insurance sending me a statement that says, “this is not a bill”?After submitting a claim for medical treatment, you may receive an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) from your insurance company. The EOB is a form that insurance companies send to their members to explain what part of a claim was paid by insurance, what part was not paid, and why. It is important to understand what this statement means.

How does the Health Savings Account (HSA) work?HSAs are a great way to save money and efficiently pay for medical expenses because they are tax-advantaged savings accounts that accompany high deductible health plans, or HDHPs. HSA money can be used tax-free when paying for qualified medical expenses. At the end of the year, you keep any unspent money in your HSA. This rolled over money can grow tax-free. Your HSA and the money in it belongs to you—not your employer or insurance company. Learn more:
