Eastbridge: Many HSA Programs May Start Small

AAHP-HIAA, Washington, says at least 63 of its members are either developing HSA products or thinking about developing HSA products.

MPDIMA lets consumers use HSAs in conjunction with high-deductible plans that provide full, “first dollar” coverage for preventive services, such as immunizations and well-baby visits. MPDIMA also appears to let insurers and other financial services companies offer a wide range of investment options for HSA assets.

But many of the insurers that Eastbridge polled say they will release a bare-bones HSA product, then introduce more elaborate HSA products that offer customers more choices, Eastbridge says.

The Eastbridge report also covers topics such as HSA fees, HSA billing and HSA client statements.
