Re: [CORSA-broadcast] HSA Employer Match / Employer Amounts
Hi all, As follow-up to my earlier email, what are your HDHP/HSA contribution amounts, if you didn’t already include in your response? It’s looking like Erie County is at the low end compared to what others are offering. Erie County $400 single $800 family Muskingum County Employee Only = $820 * Employee + 1 = $1,475 * Family = $2,140 Butler County $600 to single HDHP All other tiers of HDHP receive $1,200.

For those of you that offer a high deductible health plan and offer an HSA contribution or match incentive, when do you deposit the employer contribution/match e.g., annually, quarterly, per pay? We currently deposit the full employer match into the employee's account in January so employees have those funds to use throughout the year (as an incentive to join the HDHP rather than the County's PPO plan).

While our records show that this has happened on rare occasions, the suggestion on the table is to be pro-active and to ensure that exposure is limited by spreading the employer deposit out over the course of the year - semi-annually, quarterly, or even monthly.
