Health Savings Account
Do you have a high-deductible health plan? The Health Savings Account allows you to make contributions while earning tax-free interest and take tax-free distributions for qualified medical expenses.
Eligibility:

Qualified medical expenses are defined by IRS Publication 502 Section 213(d). Some examples include: doctors' fees, prescription and non-prescription medicines, durable medical equipment, etc. These are expenses that can be incurred by you, your spouse, or your dependents.
HSA Contribution Limits
You can make a contribution to your Health Savings Account each year that you are eligible. The yearly limits are:
$3,650 Self-only coverage (2022)
$7,300 Family coverage (2022)
Individuals age 55 and older can also make additional "catch-up" contributions. The maximum annual catch-up contribution is $1,000.00.
An HSA is owned by an individual, not an employer. Your employer may choose to make contributions to your HSA as a part of your benefits package. However, if you are switching to a new job, the HSA will go with you.
