• You pay annual deductibles before plan pays
• After deductible, you share the cost of each service with the plan - coinsurance
• Your costs are lower if you select a Blue Shield PPO provider
• “Out-of-pocket Maximum” limits your financial liability

HSA vs FSA
• The HSA is NOT like the Health FSA where you have access to the entire annual contribution starting on January 1
• The HSA is like a checking account – the money must be in the account before you can spend it
◊ You can pay an expense with a credit card and reimburse your self later when you have sufficient funds in your account.
