When you enroll in a qualified Consumer Driven Medical Plan, you may be eligible to open an HSA. The HSA is a bank account in your name that permits you to make pre-tax deposits, and non-taxed withdrawals for qualified medical expenses. Any funds that you or Breakthrough Charter Schools deposit to the HSA are yours forever! (subject to IRS limits; in 2021 $3,600 individual, $7,200 family)
For more information about a Health Savings Account and bank account setup, review the Overview & Setup Document.
