WHY SHOULD YOU CONSIDER A HEALTH SAVINGS ACCOUNT (HSA)

AS PART OF YOUR LONGER TERM RETIREMENT STRATEGY?

• An HSA today is like a 401k in 1980

• Health Care environment is moving away from HMOs

• Allows for a higher level of individual control

• Medical expenses in retirement?

• Couple retiring in 2013 needs $220,000

• HSA is the most efficient way to pay for these expenses

• Leaving free money on the table

• Premium differentials

• Employer matching contributions

• Tax savings for pre-tax contributions and investment growth

ARE YOU MISSING AN OPPORTUNITY?

Teradyne has a higher than average Savings Plan Participation:

87% of Teradyne employees participate in the 401k Savings Plan

30% of Savings Plan Participants hit the annual contribution max ($17,500)

Annual contributions to an HSA are independent of what can be contributed to a 401k or Roth IRA. Teradyne funds 50% of the annual deductible into employees HSA accounts

APPENDIX

THE “TRUE” MAXIMUM OUT OF POCKET

Individual Family

Maximum Out of Pocket $3,500 $7,000

Current ER HSA Funding

(TER funds 50% of the deductible)

$625 $1,250

Annual Premium Difference

(compared to the EPO)

($143.85-$106.23) x 12 = $451 ($431.55 - $318.70) x 12 = $ 1,354

True Out-of-Pocket Maximum with TER funding

50% of the deductible & re-investing the

premium difference

$2,424

$4,396

The “True” maximum out-of-pocket amount is what employees would need to earmark in savings to insulate themselves 100% from the extremely low probability of a catastrophic event . This would mean generating near $50,000 in medical claims. This amount is similar to ~ 4 % contribution of 401k for the average employee salary, Which can be almost entirely funded by HSA contributions

* Assumes worse case scenario (less than 2% of covered members have claims in this category)

Outside of monthly premiums, what is the most I could possibly spend in this plan?
