With my new job at Providence came a new choice in healthcare. I'm now signed up for an HSA that I can contribute pre-tax money into, and Providence contributes incentive bonus money towards as well. All of my routine exams are covered at 100% by Providence, and anything additional, and/or prescriptions I pay for from my HSA account. The money in my HSA also rollsover from year to year and throughout my retirement.
I had the option to continue with a traditional healthcare plan, but an HSA was MUCH cheaper for me month by month because I don't have to contribute anything to it if I don't want to, and I think will be cheaper for me in the long run because I don't have any health problems that require me to see a doctor often enough to justify the monthly payment. Which brings me to what I'm thankful for today - my health. I hope that if I continue to take care of myself, I'll remain this healthy for a long time. I know crazy stuff happens and I come down with an awful condition for no reason, but all the more reason to be thankful for my healthy state today.
