Health Savings Account (HSA)

Edited

A Health Savings Account allows you to use tax-free dollars so that you can save on eligible health purchases, ranging from OTC (over-the-counter) products, prescriptions, vision health essentials, and more. With an HSA account, you own and control the money in your account.

In order to be eligible for an HSA, you need to be two things:

  1. Under the age of 65

  2. Enrolled in a high-deductible health insurance plan

While HSAs are always individually owned, you set aside pre-tax dollars from your Nourish paycheck to fund it.

HSA holders can use an HSA card, such as the purple Benepass card labeled "HSA", for purchases. HSA holders can also use their own debit/credit card, or cash and submit an expense for reimbursement.

2025 HSA Contribution Limits

For 2025, employees with a Health Saving Account (HSA) may elect to contribute up to an annual maximum of:

  • $4,300 for self-only coverage 

  • $8,550 for family coverage

Keep in mind that HSA funds roll over from year to year if you don't spend them.

What expenses are eligible with a Health Savings Account (HSA)?

  • You can find a summary of common expenses claimed against Health Savings Accounts, here. Given the ever-changing nature of the eligibility determined by the IRS, this list does is not comprehensive and does not guarantee reimbursement, and it's meant to serve as a guide only.

What happens to my Health Savings Account (HSA) if I leave Nourish?

  • If you leave Nourish, you are still the owner of your HSA, so your account is still available to you even after termination.

    Now, keep in mind that the IRS establishes certain eligibility criteria to open and maintain an HSA. For instance, if you are no longer enrolled in a high-deductible health plan after leaving your current employer, you won’t be able to elect any more funds to your HSA, but you should still be able to make withdrawals for qualified medical expenses.
