HealthPartners EmpowerSM HSA plan Empower
Health Savings Account (HSA) plans offer a way to engage employees in
their health care and encourage them to save money for future health
care needs. What's more, an Empower HSA high-deductible health plan can
deliver immediate cost savings for you and ongoing tax advantages for
your employees.
The Empower HSA plans feature a high-deductible health plan that works
alongside a tax-exempt health savings account. Employers can establish
HSA trust accounts on behalf of their employees, or simply offer an HDHP
that is intended to qualify for an HSA and allow employees to establish
their own HSA's with a trustee of their choice.
Empower HSA plans offer clear advantages.

- Reduced employer costs. The
high-deductible health plan costs less than most traditional plans
so employers will see immediate savings and can plan for more
long-term savings.
- Reduced insurance premiums. Employers
can offer their employees lower premiums for these plans, which are
considerably less than standard copayment or low deductible plans.
- Tax savings. Federally qualified HSA
contributions can be deducted from gross income on employees'
federal tax returns, even if they do not itemize deductions.
- Flexibility. Funds can be withdrawn
tax-free to pay for eligible medical expenses now or in the future.
- Long-term savings. Funds left to
accumulate in an HSA grow tax-free. After age 65, an individual may
make withdrawals for any reason without penalty.
- Portability. The HSA is owned by and
remains with the individual, regardless of employment or job
changes.
- Large network. The Empower HSA plan uses
HealthPartners open access network of 25,000 providers and 173
hospitals. With open access, employees can see any provider without
a referral.
