Setting up Health Savings Accounts

Share:

Once you enroll in a Health Savings Account-eligible plan, then you can open a Health Savings Account through a financial institution, like a bank or credit union. 

To find a financial institution that will set up a Health Savings Account:

  • Search for “Health Savings Account providers” online.
  • Check with your health insurance company to see if they partner with Health Savings Account financial institutions.
  • Ask your bank if they offer a Health Savings Account option that meets your needs.

How to choose a Health Savings Account

Consider these items when comparing Health Savings Accounts at financial institutions:

  • Some Health Savings Accounts have fees associated with them, like a charge for opening or closing the account and monthly maintenance fees.
  • Banking options, services, and features, like debit cards and online banking, may differ by financial institution.
  • How you add money into your Health Savings Account may also vary.
