HSA Bank: Making HSAs work better for you, your employees and your bottom line. Visit www.hsabank.com/ cnbemployersetup to learn how HDHPs and HSAs work together to create a benefitpacked healthcare solution for employees. A balanced solution to rising healthcare costs Each year, more and more employers are trading in their high-cost health plans for a consumer-driven health benefit that combines a qualified low-premium health plan (commonly referred to as a high-deductible health plan or HDHP) with a health savings account (HSA). They re making the switch because the combination of an HDHP and HSA allows them to reduce their company s healthcare costs, while providing a quality health benefit for employees. It s a balanced solution to the rising costs of healthcare. And HSA Bank can help your business take advantage of it! The bottom-line benefits of an HSA program If you re like most employers, the rising cost of employee healthcare is an ongoing challenge. Combining an HDHP with an HSA creates an affordable and sustainable health benefit that can: Reduce your health plan premiums. Premiums for HSA-compatible health plans are generally lower than traditional healthcare plans. Help employees stay healthier and become smarter healthcare consumers. Employees with HSAs tend to be more aware of healthcare costs and more actively involved in their healthcare decisions. Lower your taxes. When you contribute to your employees HSAs, that amount is excluded from your FICA, Unemployment and Workers Compensation taxes. The more employees that enroll, the greater the savings will be. So it s important to make this benefit choice as attractive as possible.

Adding more value for your employees We make it easy for employees to open, manage and grow their HSA by offering: No minimum account balance to open or maintain an HSA. Immediate account funding. In most states, an HSA is not considered established by the IRS until the account is funded which can take weeks with payroll funding. In the meantime, if employees pay out-of-pocket for eligible medical expenses, they won t be able to reimburse themselves for the expenses. So HSA Bank deposits a penny into every HSA on the day it is opened to establish the account and allow employees to reimburse themselves for any out-of-pocket expenses. Convenient debit cards make it easy for employees to pay for their eligible medical expenses. Online account management.
