Health Savings Accounts (HSAs)

Savings with tax benefits and used for medical expenses

 

Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are designed to help people save for qualified medical and retiree health expenses on a tax-free basis.  You own and you control the money in your HAS.  Every year the money not spent stays in the account and gains interest tax-free.  Unused amounts remain available for later years, so you can budget for medical expenses from year to year.  A HSA at The Citizens First National Bank of Storm Lake, Iowa is a great way to save for your future needs – if you do not use the funds saved for medical expenses they are available for your withdrawal and use in future years.
