Fort Collins, CO (PRWEB) November 9, 2006 -- Over 3 million people are now
covered by health insurance plans that work with Health
Savings Accounts (HSAs), and many more are rushing to sign up for one
before January 1 in order to lock in their tax savings for 2007. Because
these plans are still relatively new, there is still some confusion about
how they work. So HSA for America
is putting on a teleseminar titled, "Is an HSA Right For You?". The
teleseminar is scheduled for Friday, November 10 from 3:00 p.m. to 4:00
p.m. EST.
"This
teleseminar is designed to help the person who is purchasing their own individual
or family health insurance plan make an informed decision" said Wiley Long,
President of HSA for America.
"Because of the lower premiums, the tax savings, and the potential to save
for future medical expenses, HSA plans have become extremely popular among
people who are buying their own individual plans. Callers will learn
how HSA plans
work, how to calculate their premiums, and how to calculate their income tax
savings."
Health
Savings Accounts are special tax-favored accounts where anyone with a
qualifying
high deductible health insurance plan can put aside tax-free money to
pay for future medical expenses. The money can be used for virtually
any type of medical expense, and money left in the account rolls over and
grows tax deferred like an IRA. The teleseminar will cover:
– How HSA plans compare to conventional co-pay health insurance
– How to use your HSA to build a Medical Retirement Account
– How an HSA can make all medical expenses tax-deductible
– When an HSA can be used to pay for alternative care like acupuncture or homeopathy
– The types of HSA-qualified health insurance plans available
– How to choose a plan and apply for coverage
– How to establish a health savings account
The
HSA for America teleseminar is
offered to registered participants at no charge. For more information,
