HSA advantages

What’s in It for Me?

  • Tarsus contributes $$$ to your HSA! It’s FREE money! See the chart below for contributions.
  • You can set aside pre-tax money from your paycheck to help pay for additional out-of-pocket health care expenses. HSAs give you triple tax advantages: your contributions to the HSA are not taxed,* payment of qualified expenses is tax-free, and earnings are tax-free.*
  • The HSA is an individual account you own! The entire balance is yours to keep. If you leave the company, the account goes with you.
  • You can make changes to your HSA contributions at any time. Unused funds always roll over to the next plan year.
  • Manage your healthcare spending and savings to grow your balance for future qualified medical expenses, such as those in retirement.
