Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas BlueEdge HSA Plan
The Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas BlueEdge HSA plan is HSA-eligible. Health savings accounts (HSAs) are savings accounts that allow you to contribute tax-deductible, pre-tax money to pay for medical expenses. The money in the account can only be used for qualifying medical expenses. For example, it can be used for alternative medicine like acupuncture, which a lot of insurances don’t cover. If the money is used for a non-qualifying medical expense, you’ll have to pay a penalty tax of 20%. The money accumulates tax-deferred interest even if it’s not used, and once you turn 65, you can use the money as you wish without penalty.

Your billing will begin on that effective date. If you need your coverage to kick in by a certain date, you should apply ahead of time to make sure your coverage takes effect in time, ideally a few weeks in advance.

Your health savings account is separate from your health insurance, and you may use any approved bank or trustee as your HSA administrator. We recommend you choose one from our HSA administrator page, where you can compare rates and features.
