It is the number one weapon in the fight against poverty in Africa’s Ghana, where the progressive National Health Service was set up funded 100% by state revenue (taxes were paid relative to income earned).
Health Savings Accounts Are They The Future?
Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) were first offered several years ago as alternatives to traditional health care plans. The number of accounts opened by employees between 2005 and 2006 more than doubled. Perhaps they are so popular because they work similar to IRAs, 401Ks and other investment plans where pre-tax dollars are set aside. The funds can be used for deductibles, prescription drugs, and other medical expenses employees may incur throughout the year not covered by their regular health insurance. However, unlike investment accounts that are taxed upon withdrawing money, HSA funds can be freely withdrawn to pay medical expenses completely tax free.
