Take advantage of tax-free savings for qualified medical expenses now. Your future self will thank you!
With an average daily balance of $100 or more
With an Alliant Health Savings Account, you, your employer, or someone on your behalf can deposit funds to pay for current or future medical expenses. Funds used for qualified medical expenses, including dividends, are tax-free7. Unused funds remain in the HSA year after year, earning tax-deferred dividends. Unlike a Flexible Spending Account (FSA), there's no "use it or lose it" provision in an HSA.
Once you are age 65 or become disabled, you can withdraw funds from your HSA for both medical and non-medical expenses (but the non-medical uses will be taxable at that time.)
