The guide is intended to help individuals and families better understand what Health Savings Accounts are and how they work, how the HSA-qualified health plans that make people eligible for Health Savings Accounts compare to traditional health insurance, and how to determine whether a Health Savings Account is right for you. A worksheet is included to help compare an HSA plan to a traditional policy.



Lake Geneva, WI (PRWEB) October 30, 2007



Roy Ramthun, a nationally-recognized expert on Health Savings Accounts and consumer-directed health care issues and former White House health care advisor, has released a free e-book entitled, "The Common Sense Guide to Health Savings Accounts: What You Need to Know about High Deductible Health Plans and Health Savings Accounts."



The guide is intended to help individuals and families better understand what Health Savings Accounts are and how they work, how the HSA-qualified health plans that make people eligible for Health Savings Accounts compare to traditional health insurance, and how to determine whether a Health Savings Account is right for you. A worksheet is included to help compare an HSA plan to a traditional policy.



"Since 2004, I have answered the many questions people have about Health Savings Accounts. Unfortunately, there are many Americans that still have not heard about HSAs, or what they have heard may be incorrect," said Mr. Ramthun. "This guide is an attempt to provide reliable advice and insight so that everyone can have the proper information to determine which health plan is right for their situation."



The guide examines the finer details of HSA accounts and the health insurance policies that accompany them. In each section, a "Buyer's Guide" provides advice, reminders, and important things to consider when examining a Health Savings Account. Additional help is provided through answers to frequently asked questions, definitions of terms that are commonly used with Health Savings Accounts, and a description of additional resources available through the Internet.
