It helps to pay for unreimbursed out-of-pocket medical expenses while reducing your taxable income. You do not pay taxes on this money, so it is additional money in your pocket, less to Uncle Sam.

FSA & HSA Payment Options
Flexible Spending Account - FSA
Health Saving Account - HSA
A health savings account is a tax-advantaged medical savings account available to taxpayers in the United States who are enrolled in a high-deductible health plan. The funds contributed to an account are not subject to federal income tax at the time of deposit.
A debit card is issued through the plan and may be used at the point of sale for any medical expense and doctor written prescriptions. Ask your employer if they offer HSA through your employee benefits. Otherwise, most major financial institutions can set up a personal HSA for you.
