Do I have to be enrolled in a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) to contribute into an HSA (Health Savings Account)?
A. Yes. Q. If I have an HSA (Health Savings Account) and an FSA (Flexible Spending Account) can I get reimbursed from both accounts A. No. Both of these accounts are regulated by the IRS and strict guidelines have been put in place to avoid “double dipping”. If you have both accounts, the FSA becomes a “limited purpose” account (limited to dental, vision or preventive care expenses).
