What is a Health Saving Account (HSA)/ HDHP?
� A Health Savings Account (HSA):� Set aside a portion of your paycheck—before taxes—into an account
� Rolls from year to year
� It is your account – even if you leave Henley
� Help you pay for qualified medical expenses for you and your dependents!
� It can also help you plan for future medical expenses
� Reduces Taxable Income (w2 decrease through payroll / tax form if direct contribution)*
� Funds may be invested in mutual funds yielding tax free earnings* (details to be provided by new H.S.A. administrator – min balance $2,000)
An HSA PLAN is made up of two parts:
� High Deductible Health Plan (min of $1300/$2600 min for 2016)
� Health Savings Account
*LBG Advisors are not tax advisors. Please consult your tax advisor for details.
NEW: Health Saving Account (HSA) Details
� Henley USA will fund $500- $1,000 into the HSA account for employees
� Pro-rated for new employees (see Mary Kirkpatrick for chart)
� $500 minimum contribution
� Both employers and employee can contribute to HSA
� 2017 Limit $3,400 Ind. / $6750 Family (Pro-Rated may apply if you are not participating in H.S.A. medical plan as of 12/1/17 – see IRS pub 502)
� If over 55, add $1,000 to limits above
� Employees:
� Control HSA disbursements (not a reimbursement program)
� Will receive a debit card for HSA funds or can use bill-pay feature online
� Will be responsible to save all receipts for tax audit purposes

Eligible Expenses
� Keep Your Receipts!
Eligibility Rules
You are not eligible to contribute to H.S.A if:
� If you are claimed as a dependent on someone else’s taxes
� You are covered by any other health insurance policies that are not considered High-Deductible Health Plans (HDHPs)
� You are currently on Medicare (previous H.S.A. funds can pay Medicare premiums A/B)
� If you participate in an unlimited FSA or HRA through your employer oryour spouse’s employer, (Limited or Dependent FSA is allowed with H.S.A)
� You and your spouse can each have an HSA if you both have high deductible coverage. If you have family HDHP coverage (Min deductible $1300 individual or $2600 family), the maximum contribution is split equally unless you and your spouse agree on a different division.
H.S.A. vs PPO (Example #1)
� Employee Only Coverage – 2 office visits per year (low usage)� For office visit, PPO costs $30 per and H.S.A. would cost amount that is billed less
network discount (up until deductible is hit- for this example, lets say $125 after discount)
� On PPO, employee would pay $60� On H.S.A., employee would pay $250
� PPO has co-pay and $1,000 deductible � H.S.A. has no co-pays and $1500 deductible� On H.S.A. company contributes $1,000 (This turns $1500 deductible into net $500
deductible)� Any funds left of $1,000 are employees to keep and roll-forward. If they leave
Henley, they own account� In addition to $1,000, employee could fund another $2,400 into account thus
lowering their taxable income (similar to 401k deduction)
� In example above, PPO would have paid $60 and H.S.A. would have paid $250 however with Henley $1,000 contribution, the $250 is covered and $750 is left over in account.
H.S.A. vs PPO (Example #2)
� Employee Only Coverage – 2 office visits per year + 4 fills of $1,000 medication
� For office visit, PPO costs $30 per and H.S.A. would cost whatever is billed less network discount (up until deductible is hit- for this example, lets say $125 after discount)
� For medication, PPO costs $75 per and H.S.A. would cost amount billed up to $1,500 then employee pays 20% until they hit max out of pocket $5,000
� On PPO, employee would pay $60 office and $300 Rx for total of $360� On H.S.A., employee would pay $250 office, $1,000 for first Rx, $250 for
second Rx (part) $150 for second Rx (20% part), $200 for 3rd Rx, and $200 4th Rx. Total paid is $2,050 however Henley pays $1,000 of this for a net of $1,050. If employee funds H.S.A. with $1,050 to pay amount due and is at 20% tax rate, the net amount is $840 (save $210 in tax)
� In example above, PPO would have been better option with total cost being $360 vs. $840.
H.S.A. vs PPO (Example #3)
� Family Coverage – 2 office visits per year per member(low usage)� For office visit, PPO costs $30 per and H.S.A. would cost amount that is billed less network
discount (up until deductible is hit- for this example, lets say $125 after discount)� On PPO, employee would pay $60 x 4 =$240� On H.S.A., employee would pay $250 x 4 = $1,000
� PPO has co-pay and $1,000 deductible � H.S.A. has no co-pays and $1500 deductible
� On H.S.A. company contributes $1,000 (This turns $1500 deductible into net $500 deductible)� Any funds left of $1,000 are employees to keep and roll-forward. If they leave Henley, they own
account� In addition to $1,000, employee could fund another $5,750 into account thus lowering their
taxable income by substantial amount (similar to 401k deduction)
� In example above, PPO would have paid $240 and H.S.A. would have paid $1,000 however with Henley $1,000 contribution, the full $1,000 is covered leaving employee with no cost. In addition, annual family premium share is approximately $2148 lower on H.S.A. than PPO
H.S.A. vs PPO (Example #4)
� Family Coverage – 2 office visits per year per member + large facility bill such as pregnancy (high usage)
� For office visit, PPO costs $30 per and H.S.A. would cost amount that is billed less network discount (up until deductible is hit- for this example, lets say $125 after discount)
� For large facility, example for cost is $10,000
� On PPO, employee would pay $60 x 4 =$240 for office and $2,000 for pregnancy (20% of $10k)� On H.S.A., employee would pay $250 x 4 = $1,000 for office and $2400 for pregnancy
� PPO has co-pay and $1,000 deductible � H.S.A. has no co-pays and $1500 deductible� On H.S.A. company contributes $1,000 (This turns $1500 deductible into net $500 deductible)� Any funds left of $1,000 are employees to keep and roll-forward. If they leave Henley, they own
account� In addition to $1,000, employee could fund another $5,750 into account thus lowering their
taxable income by substantial amount (similar to 401k deduction)
� In example above, PPO would have paid $2,240 and H.S.A. would have paid $3,400 however with Henley $1,000 contribution and $2148 lower annual premiums, net H.S.A. amount is $252
� Important to Remember on H.S.A: Family deductible must first be satisfied for additional benefits to apply (i.e. one person could use up the entire $3,000), then 80/20 formula applies
