Adding coinsurance to a group plan drives down the overall cost of the plan but the impact on employees is not always positive. Find out how to use a Health Spending Account (HSA) to offset the costs associated with the introduction of employee coinsurance – a win-win for both the plan and employees.
Convincing your clients:
– It allows employees to share in the cost of the plan – lowering the overall plan cost
– The introduction of coinsurance will cause a reduction in the deposit needed, which can be redirected to the HSAs, allowing for the same monthly bill amount
– Employees can use their HSA funds for:
– Out-of-pocket coinsurance amounts
– Or additional services not covered under the group plan
Getting started:
– Verify your group’s coinsurance levels
– Account Managers available to support Advisor with analysis & HSA amount recommendation
– Can be implemented at renewal or mid-year
– Support available from Benecaid to educate potential clients as well Plan Members on HSA basics
