Investment advisor and financial planner Blair duQuesnay says she uses open enrollment to save more for retirement, signing up for a high-deductible healthcare plan with access to a Health Savings Account, or HSA.
AdvertisementFor most people, open enrollment doesn't go beyond signing up for health insurance coverage for the coming year.
However, HSAs are only available if you enroll in a high-deductible healthcare plan during open enrollment.
And you don't always have to have a high-deductible healthcare plan to keep your HSA open and growing.
"I hope to resume my HSA savings in future years to build a savings account for future healthcare costs," she writes.
