Feb 14, 2005 -- Info on HSAs now available

Health care in the United States is outrageously expensive, as you well know. Problems started in the '60s when companies offered to provide health coverage in lieu of pay raises and other benefits. The problem was people began not caring how much it cost because they weren’t paying. The whole thing has been upside down and backwards ever since. Well, fast forward to today when there is help on the way. Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) will provide us with that alternative. These are tax-advantaged accounts that allow individuals to shop around and keep track of how much health care costs them. You can end up with a big pile of cash if you remain fairly healthy. Information is slowly trickling out about these accounts and now there is a site that lists opportunities by state. It is hsadecisions.org.

  • HSA
    Did anyone ever find a HSA without fees?
  • still doesn't work
    I'm also needing a hsa account without fees.
  • The link doesn't work any longer
    I tried following your link in this article, but it takes me to http://www.ahiphiwire.org site instead. It would be good to get an updated pointer.

    I need an HSA, but I'm having a real problem finding one without fees or at least realistic fees.

    I have a lump sum of money that I'd like to use to start the HSA this year.

    Assistance would be appreciated.
