Health Savings Account (HSA)

If you enroll in the UHC Choice Plus HSA, you are eligible to open an HSA, through Optum Bank, to help pay for most health care expenses. An HSA can help you pay for eligible health care expenses such as medical, dental, vision care, and prescription drugs.

How the HSA Works

  • Quadient starts your savings off with FREE MONEY (see contributions in the table below).
  • Set aside tax-free* money to pay for health care expenses.
  • Simply pay for eligible expenses using the HSA debit card. Or submit your receipts with myuhc.com and get reimbursed. It’s really easy.
  • If you leave the company or retire, the account, including Quadient’s contributions, goes with you.
  • All unused funds roll over year-to-year, so there’s no pressure to spend it all in one place.
  • You have the freedom to control and manage your health care spending and savings to grow your balance for future qualified medical expenses, such as those in retirement.
  • When you reach a balance of $1,000, your HSA funds can be invested to earn more money.


*State taxes may still apply in CA and NJ. For detailed tax implications of an HSA, please contact your professional tax advisor.

Contributions

Each year, you can give yourself pre-tax funds to spend on health care up to the annual IRS maximums (combined with Quadient’s contribution). We’ve outlined these here for you.

Coverage type  Quadient HSA Contribution* IRS Maximum Limit Maximum You Can Contribute**
Individual Coverage $500 $4,400 ($4,500 in 2027) $3,900 ($4,000 in 2027)
Family Coverage $1,000 $8,750 ($9,000 in 2027) $7,750 ($8,000 in 2027)

*New Hires & Qualifying Life Events: Company contributions are prorated. Your HSA will not be opened or funded until the month following your eligibility date.
**If you are age 55+, you may contribute an additional $1,000 each year.

Simple Steps for Using the HSA

When you enroll in the UHC Choice Plus HSA, you can open an HSA, as long as you meet the eligibility requirements.

1

Make your HSA election online at myadp.com or Workday > My Apps > MyADP.

2

Contribute up to the full amount to maximize your savings: $3,900* for you, or $7,750* for your family in 2026. Remember, Quadient contributes too!

3

Receive your HSA debit card in the mail.

4

Use your HSA funds to pay for eligible medical, dental, vision, and pharmacy expenses.
