Get health care savings that can last a lifetime

Pay for qualified health expenses now or in the future with a Health Savings Account

As we grow older, it can seem like you are buried in health care expenses. Dig yourself out with a Health Savings Account (HSA).

Paired with the CU Health Plan - High Deductible, you contribute funds from your pay on a pre-tax basis to your HSA to cover qualified medical expenses such as prescription drugs and copays.

The best part? The money you put into this savings account can be invested with tax-free interest. The account is managed by you, even when you leave the university and into retirement.

You can enroll, cancel or make changes to your HSA contributions at any time.

Eligibility: You must be in a benefits-eligible position, working 50% or greater time to enroll in and use this CU Advantage item. You must be enrolled in CU Health Plan - High Deductible to participate. Eligible CU faculty and staff can enroll in, cancel or make changes to their Health Savings Account at any time.

Testimonials

Luke Doster, Program Director / UCCS

November 2022

I've enjoyed having this health plan. As a young single man the ability to save my "premium" in an HSA versus needing to pay it outright has been very beneficial. Even though I had some unexpected health expenses last year I was able to cover almost all of the expenses with just my HSA!

Being new to the work system in US, I was not sure about the proper use of HSA. I titrated the amount being kept in HSA almost monthly and requested employee services to change the amount every 2-3 months. Now I have reached the max limit with huge saving and low tax deductions. thank you for this benefit.
