Paying for medical expenses
You can set aside pre-tax dollars to pay eligible health care expenses, including those that count toward the deductible, coinsurance and copays.
The type of tax-advantaged account you can contribute to depends on your chosen medical plan.
Health Savings Account (HSA)
This account can only be paired with the UHC Base HSA Plan (HDHP) or UHC Buy-up HSA Plan (HDHP). You can use the HSA to pay eligible medical, dental and vision expenses, or save and invest the money. Both you and Samsung contribute to this account.
Flexible Spending Account (FSA)
If you enroll in the UHC Choice Plus Copay Plan (PPO) or Kaiser HMO of CA plan, you’re eligible to contribute to a Health Care FSA to pay eligible medical, dental and vision expenses.
If you enroll in the UHC Base HSA Plan (HDHP) or UHC Buy-up HSA Plan (HDHP), you can contribute to a Limited Purpose FSA to pay eligible dental and vision expenses only.
