The Consumer's Guide to Health Savings Accounts

“Let’s get the consumer in the game. The idea behind HSAs is a ‘supercharged IRA’ for health care...No other program is as tax advantaged.”
–John W. Snow, Treasury Secretary

“...HSAs can drastically lower an employer’s costs of providing employee health benefits. This may allow more small businesses to offer such benefits.”
–Fed Brock, The New York Times

“These accounts give workers the security of insurance against major illness, the opportunity to save tax-free for routine health expenses, and the freedom of knowing you can take your account with you whenever you change jobs.”
–President George W. Bush

“Laing’s new book (The Small Business Guide to HSAs) lives up to its name...an excellent explanation of how HSAs work...”
–Greg Scandlen, The New York Post

The Consumer’s Guide to HSAs answers the question “What’s in it for Me?” But responsibility doesn’t stop there. You must read your medical reports, check statements, and count your pills carefully. Ask questions. Keep records for future use, and soon you will realize as much of the benefits of consumer-driven health care and HSAs as possible.
