PRESIDENT BUSH SUPPORTS HSAs
|
"Our first policy is to expand health savings accounts to help improve health care and to help lower costs" said the President before the American Hospital Association. "The second policy for making health care more affordable and accessible is to increase transparency in our health care system. To be smart consumers, we need to be informed consumers, and this is especially true for patients with HSAs who have an incentive to spend their HSA dollars wisely."
