Clarity HSAs: Health Care Savings Without the Hassle
All flexible spending plans are not the same. Clarity HSA gives employers and employees the tax savings they expect -- plus a simple, stress-free experience that only we can offer. Our program is simple to use, easy to manage, and automated for efficiency.
Unlike other HSAs, the Clarity HSA solution allows employees to manage their account and invest in real-time from a single platform. From this platform, employees can search for in-network procedures, facilities, and doctors, receive personalized suggestions for smarter healthcare spending actions, and access a virtual medicine cabinet to manage monthly drug costs.
When it comes to savings, there are two interest options for employees: High-Yield, backed by a group annuity product provided by a highly-rated insurance provider, and Traditional funds are backed by an FDIC-insured institution. With High-Yield, employees can maximize the value of their HSA by earning higher interest than in the traditional option.
There are also built-in predictive analytic tools to guide intelligent long-term funding decisions and a personalized Opportunities feed that delivers targeted contribution messages.

A Simply Smarter HSA Solution
It’s no easy task to offer great benefits while controlling rising healthcare costs. If you offer a High Deductible Health Plan, did you know combining it with an HSA can be a money-saving solution for both you and your employees?
And, the right HSA service can also help you attract and retain talent while keeping employees healthy and engaged. That’s where the Clarity HSA comes in. We offer a health benefit solution with a simply smarter user experience and customizable investment options. On top of that, our HSA can even help cover surprise healthcare costs.

THREE INVESTMENT MODELS ENSURE A PERSONALIZED APPROACH
Our investment approach allows you to provide your employees an integrated, modern HSA investment solution that not only helps them understand the value of investing but also helps them work toward their long-term investing goals. Whether your employees are new to investing and seeking a guided experience or seasoned investors looking to research and trade stocks and ETFs available on the platform, you can offer them an investment journey that is aligned with their individual needs. HSA investment accounts are opened in real-time, transactions are made in real-time and account data is viewed in real-time, which means your employees have full transparency into their assets and allocations.
MANAGED
Designed for novice investors who prefer to have our advisor tool automatically select and rebalance investments on an ongoing basis in accordance with their age and/or risk profile. This account type delivers a “do-it-for-me” approach to investing.
SELF-DIRECTED
Designed for intermediate investors who have the desire to self-select from a menu of monitored investment options covering multiple asset classes to diversify their portfolio, and then rebalance their portfolio manually. This account type provides a balance between do-it-for-me and DIY approaches to investing.
BROKERAGE
Designed for adept investors who desire to perform advanced research and trading across hundreds of individual stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). This account type offers a hands-on, DIY approach to investing.
For savvy investors, the Clarity HSA also offers Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that give employees lower costs and diversified market returns. Fractional trading up to 8 decimal points enables ownership of high-value stocks like Apple or Berkshire Hathaway for as little as a penny. And convenient features include auto-rebalancing, real-time account opening, and trading, on-demand investment statements, historical performance of available funds, and more.
How Accelerated funding Works
- Your employee has a high-deductible health plan and decides to participate in “built in protection”. As an employer, you decide how you want to use the “Built in protection” (advance amount, eligibility, and terms of repayment) and we automate the entire process.
- If your employee has a medical expense, but not enough money in their HSA to cover it all your employee has to do is swipe their Clarity Debit Card initiating a payroll advance.
- Our HSA administration platform creates an interest-free payroll advance funded by your company. Then it creates an employee paycheck deduction in your payroll system, which makes payback a breeze.
- The advance is paid back through small payroll deductions that are manageable for your employee.
- Financial anxiety is eased, your employee is grateful, and you bask in the glow of helping your people in a critical moment of need.
