Health Savings Account Houston
Texas Gulf Bank offers personal banking customers the ability to open a Health Savings Account in Houston or one of our Gulf Coast locations, to help save for future health expenses tax-free when you have a high-deductible health plan.

What is a Health Savings Account?

Available to Texas Gulf Bank customers in Houston and Brazoria County, a Health Savings Account is a tax-advantaged medical savings account. It is available to US taxpayers who have high deductible health plans, which typically cover only catastrophic illness expenses. Funds deposited in the Health Savings Account at Houston and Gulf Coast branches are not subject to federal income tax when deposited. Routine medical expenses are covered by the individual, in an effort to keep medical insurance premiums manageable and provide the consumer with more control over the medical care received.

Qualified medical expenses (most medical care and services, dental and vision care and non-prescription drugs) are paid directly from the Health Savings Account. Unused funds in your Texas Gulf Bank Health Savings Account (also known as an HSA) roll over from year to year, so you never lose your tax-free investment.

NOTICE OF CHANGES IN TEMPORARY FDIC INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR TRANSACTION ACCOUNTS
All funds in a "noninterest-bearing transaction account" are insured in full by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation from December 31, 2010, through December 31, 2012. This temporary unlimited coverage is in addition to, and separate from, the coverage of at least $250,000 available to depositors under the FDIC's general deposit insurance rules. The term "noninterest-bearing transaction account" includes a traditional checking account or demand deposit account on which the insured depository institution pays no interest. It does not include other accounts, such as traditional checking or demand deposit accounts that may earn interest, NOW accounts or money-market deposit accounts.
