FAQs
Q: What’s the difference between an HSA and a general-purpose FSA?
A: HSAs are available only to those with a high-deductible health plan and allow you to contribute pre-tax income. FSAs are less restrictive but cannot be combined with HSAs for medical expenses.
Q: Can I change my benefits choices after the enrollment period?
A: Typically, you cannot change your benefits post-enrollment unless you experience a qualifying life event such as marriage, divorce, or the birth of a child.
Q: Are there benefits to enrolling early in the open enrollment period?
A: Enrolling early gives you ample time to review and compare plans without the pressure of a closing window, potentially leading to better decisions and less stress.
