Is it difficult to connect the HSA plan with the bank account?
Since you need to select a financial institution to open your savings account with, if the health insurer offering the HSA plan also has a financial institution available, it can make the process of setting up and using an HSA much easier and more convenient. Some insurers have their own bank and offer a single enrollment process so you can sign up for both the health insurance plan and the bank account at the same time, eliminating the need to go through two separate enrollment processes. Also, one way to turn HSA funds into long-term health care savings is to invest that money in mutual funds or other opportunities. So make sure that the bank you choose has investment options available.
