Are those contributions that will be made to your HSA account? DMBA can’t

You can't contribute to an HSA and FSA.

You can contribute to an HSA and a limited purpose FSA

Thank you for that. That makes sense. I can contribute to dental and vision, but
RexburgCougar
Nov 12, 12:58pm
That is a limited purpose FSA. You can have that if you have an HSA.

Yeah, that's a good idea if you can afford to do it that way

I put in $750 - $1000 per year on my limited purpose FSA - low enough that I'm sure I'll use it all

Correct. Though I would have a cashflow problem if I even tried to max it out

Nice! 4% match is great.

It depends on the premiums and how many medical expenses you have each year.
RGGeemer
Nov 12, 12:54pm
This is the risk, but I am banking on the fact that a $6,000 premium isn't too

The savings plan is the same. You can contribute up to $8,550 to your HSA no

I would choose the $3k HSA and not spend any of it. Put it away and let it grow

I'm not convinced the $3k is a company contribution....I'm thinking that is just
