Health Savings Accounts (HSAs): Affordable, Accessible, Uncomplicated
Course Description:
When the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 took effect a window opened for employers to not only cut their skyrocketing health care costs, but to make health care more affordable and accessible for their employees.
Unfortunately, legal restrictions, plan compatibility issues, and eligibility limitations have prevented many employers from starting an HSA program.
Learn exactly how HSA programs work and how to implement a program that not only cuts costs but also meets the needs of your employees. In just 75 minutes, CCM’s expert faculty will show you how to avoid the most common HSA pitfalls, and you’ll learn:
- The ABCs of HSAs
- How a properly implemented HSA can reduce employer costs and employee taxes
- Practical strategies on how to avoid common pitfalls in HSA plan design
- How to adhere to the rules and regulations regarding contributions and distributions
- HSAs, MSAs, HRAs, and Health FSAs — what’s the difference?
- Best practice techniques on how to market HSAs both internally and externally
