In 2012, Steve will deposit $6,250 into
his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income
taxes on the $3,000 as long as he
uses it to pay for qualified
expenses.

Steve earns interest on his account.

Steve does not have to pay federal
income taxes on his interest.

Steve will carry over $3,250 HSA dollars
(contributions – expenses + account
earnings) into.

With a traditional plan, Steve
wouldn’t have this carryover option,
which helps him save for the future.

his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income

tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income

In 2012, Steve will deposit $6,250 into
his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income
taxes on the $3,000 as long as he

In 2012, Steve will deposit $6,250 into
his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income
taxes on the $3,000 as long as he
uses it to pay for qualified
expenses.

Steve earns interest on his account.

Steve does not have to pay federal
income taxes on his interest.

Steve will carry over $3,250 HSA dollars
(contributions – expenses + account
earnings) into.

With a traditional plan, Steve
wouldn’t have this carryover option,
which helps him save for the future.

In 2012, Steve will deposit $6,250 into
his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income
taxes on the $3,000 as long as he
uses it to pay for qualified
expenses.

Steve earns interest on his account.

Steve does not have to pay federal
income taxes on his interest.

Steve will carry over $3,250 HSA dollars
(contributions – expenses + account
earnings) into.

With a traditional plan, Steve
wouldn’t have this carryover option,
which helps him save for the future.

In 2012, Steve will deposit $6,250 into
his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income
taxes on the $3,000 as long as he

his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income

contributions for the year are
$2,478.

his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income

tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income
taxes on the $3,000 as long as he

In 2012, Steve will deposit $6,250 into
his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income
taxes on the $3,000 as long as he

Steve does not have to pay federal
income taxes on his interest.

Steve will carry over $3,250 HSA dollars

claim to
UnitedHealthcare

Doctor bills you
for payment

your HSA to pay

UnitedHealthcare
applies network
discount and
notifies doctor of
amount you may
owe.

claim activity,
you will receive a
Health
Statement.

2. Or you can
choose to pay
another way (cash,
credit card) and
reimburse yourself
later

The money Steve puts into his HSA is
federal income tax-deductible.
Any money Steve withdraws from his
HSA to pay for qualified medical
expenses is withdrawn federal income
tax-free.

How Much Did Steve Save?

2

In 2012, Steve will deposit $6,250 into
his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income
taxes on the $3,000 as long as he
uses it to pay for qualified
expenses.

Steve earns interest on his account.

Steve does not have to pay federal
income taxes on his interest.

Steve will carry over $3,250 HSA dollars
(contributions – expenses + account
earnings) into.

With a traditional plan, Steve
wouldn’t have this carryover option,
which helps him save for the future.

In 2012, Steve will deposit $6,250 into
his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income
taxes on the $3,000 as long as he

In 2012, Steve will deposit $6,250 into
his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income
taxes on the $3,000 as long as he
uses it to pay for qualified
expenses.

Steve earns interest on his account.

Steve does not have to pay federal
income taxes on his interest.

Steve will carry over $3,250 HSA dollars

earnings) into.

With a traditional plan, Steve
wouldn’t have this carryover option,
which helps him save for the future.

family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income

his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income

tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income

In 2012, Steve will deposit $6,250 into
his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income
taxes on the $3,000 as long as he

Steve does not have to pay federal
income taxes on his interest.

Steve will carry over $3,250 HSA dollars

your HSA to pay

UnitedHealthcare
applies network
discount and
notifies doctor of
amount you may
owe.

Statement.

2. Or you can
choose to pay
another way (cash,
credit card) and
reimburse yourself
later

How Much Did Steve Save?

2

In 2012, Steve will deposit $6,250 into
his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income
taxes on the $3,000 as long as he
uses it to pay for qualified
expenses.

Steve earns interest on his account.

Steve does not have to pay federal
income taxes on his interest.

Steve will carry over $3,250 HSA dollars
(contributions – expenses + account
earnings) into.

With a traditional plan, Steve
wouldn’t have this carryover option,
which helps him save for the future.

In 2012, Steve will deposit $6,250 into
his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income
taxes on the $3,000 as long as he

In 2012, Steve will deposit $6,250 into
his HSA, the maximum contribution for
family coverage.

Steve’s federal and state income
tax savings and FICA on his
contributions for the year are
$2,478.

Steve will withdraw $3,000 to pay for
qualified health care expenses for him
and his family.

Steve will not have to pay income
taxes on the $3,000 as long as he
uses it to pay for qualified
expenses.

Steve earns interest on his account.

Steve does not have to pay federal
income taxes on his interest.

Steve will carry over $3,250 HSA dollars

wouldn’t have this carryover option,
which helps him save for the future.
