Health Savings Account (HSA) HSA Bank
EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
ABOUT HSA A Health Savings Account (HSA) is a personal savings account where the money can only be used for eligible medical expenses. Unlike a flexible spending account (FSA), the money rolls over year to year however only those funds that have been deposited in your account can be used. Contributions to a Health Savings Account can only be used if you are also enrolled in a High Deductible Health Care Plan (HDHP). For full plan details, please visit your benefit website: www.mybenefitshub.com/midlothianisd
A Health Savings Account (HSA) is more than a way to help you and your family cover health care costs – it is also a tax-exempt tool to supplement your retirement savings and cover health expenses during retirement. An HSA can provide the funds to help pay current health care expenses as well as future health care costs. A type of personal savings account, an HSA is always yours even if you change health plans or jobs. The money in your HSA (including interest and investment earnings) grows tax-free and spends tax-free if used to pay for qualified medical expenses. There is no “use it or lose it” rule — you do not lose your money if you do not spend it in the calendar year — and there are no vesting requirements or forfeiture provisions. The account automatically rolls over year after year.
HSA Eligibility
Maximum Contributions Your HSA contributions may not exceed the annual maximum amount established by the Internal Revenue Service. The annual contribution maximum for 2022 is based on the coverage option you elect: • Individual – $3,650 • Family (filing jointly) – $7,300 If you are 55 or older, you may make a yearly catch-up contribution of up to $1,000 to your HSA. If you turn 55 at any time during the plan year, you are eligible to make the catch-up contribution for the entire plan year.
Important HSA Information •

The clinic is designed to provide high-quality treatment for common acute conditions, such as flu, sinus infections, asthma attacks, skin conditions, strep, UTIs and other conditions. When employees visit the clinic, the MISD Express Care personnel will schedule them for a specific time, between 3 to 7 p.m. The scheduled time will be based on the number of patients that have come in prior to them and have paid the non-refundable visit fee of $10 to save their appointment time. All appointments are first-come, first-serve. Once an appointment time is scheduled, the employee is then given the option to wait at the clinic to be seen or return to the clinic at their designated time. Occasionally, due to limited appointment availability, there may be days in which not all employees desiring to be seen will be able to visit a medical provider that same day. To help ensure employees receive care when and where they need it most, MISD Express Care also offers on-demand virtual video visits, between 8:00AM-8:00PM, for the same $10 visit fee. Employees can request a virtual visit by calling one of our dedicated schedulers at 214-730-6828 and press option 2. When employees call they will be asked a few short questions and will be scheduled for a virtual video visit with Kelly Copeland, Nurse Practitioner.
