Health Savings Account (HSA) through WEX
If you enroll in one of Catalina’s HDHP medical plans (Lower Deductible HSA and Higher Deductible HSA medical plans), you may be eligible to open a Health Savings Account (HSA). This is an account both you and Catalina contribute to that you can use throughout the year to pay for medical, dental, and vision expenses for yourself and your tax dependents (even if they are not enrolled in your medical plan).
The money in your HSA will roll over from year-to-year and is yours to keep, regardless of your employment status. You may start or stop HSA contributions at any time. HSA money can also grow over time, so it is a great way to save for future qualified medical expenses!
How to Update Your HSA Contributions:
Contribution changes are maintained and submitted directly through Workday. Please utilize the below step-by-step guide.
HSA Contributions from Catalina:
The amount Catalina contributes to your account depends on your salary, who you cover, and what you contribute personally from your own paycheck. Catalina will make a matching contribution to your HSA up until you reach the limits illustrated in the chart below.
Catalina matches employee contributions each pay period until the employer match limit is met, assuming the employee has established his/her personal HSA with WEX.
| Annual Salary & Coverage Tier | Catalina Annual Matching Contribution* |
|---|---|
| Less than $75,000 & Single Coverage | $750 |
| Less than $75,000 & Family Coverage | $1,500 |
| $75,000 or higher & Single Coverage | $500 |
| $75,000 or higher & Family Coverage | $1,000 |
*In addition to the matching contribution formula (on a per pay period basis and contingent on the employee contributing), Catalina will make a lump sum contribution of $300 in January 2025. Employees are not required to contribute to their HSA in order to receive the $300 lump sum, but they must ensure their HSA is open and in active status. New hires throughout 2025 who elect one of the HSA plans will receive their $300 lump sum as soon as administratively possible after establishing their HSA account.
