Health Savings Accounts

State continues to contribute to Health Savings Account

The state will contribute approximately 45 percent of the Consumer Driven Health Plan (CDHP) annual deductible to your Health Savings Account (HSA) in 2020. The initial contribution will be made on your January 08, 2020 paycheck. Employees enrolled in a CDHP effective from January 1, 2020 through June 1, 2020 receive the full pre-fund amount. CDHPs effective after June 2, 2020, but before December 2, 2020, receive one-half of the initial contribution. The initial pre-fund contribution is based on the coverage type (single/family) that is effective January 1, 2020 or your first day of coverage in a state health plan during 2020.
