This plan offers a high deductible health plan with an associated Health Savings Account (HSA) account. You receive 90% coverage for in-network services after the deductible is met and have the option for out-of-network services. Monthly premiums are the lowest of the three health plan options and UNE will provide up to $2,600 to eligible participants' 2020 HSA ($1,300 in January and $1,300 in July). Participants also have the option to contribute additional money to their HSA (within limitations set by the IRS). Under the HSA plans, unused contributions may be rolled from calendar year to calendar year.
*You cannot elect this plan if you have a Medical Flexible Spending Account or if you have other coverage such as Medicare Part A.
Note: HSA funds cannot be used for expenses incurred prior to the setup/opening of the HSA account with Benefit Wallet. Example: If you open your account on 2/24/2020, you are not permitted to use HSA funds for any dates of service prior to 2/24/2020.
Special note regarding COVID19: The CARES Act (PDF), which took effect on March 27, 2020, now permits FSA and HSA reimbursement of over-the-counter products without the need of a prescription, along with menstrual products.
