Course Description
Course publication/revision date: This course was updated on 11/18/2017.

Study after study indicates health is a top concern among retirees. At the same time the cost of current and projected health care expenses continues to grow at a pace far exceeding overall inflation. Meanwhile employers are in the midst of transitioning their health insurance benefits to specifically defined, qualified-High Deductible Health Plans (“HDHP’s”). HDHPs feature lower annual premiums in exchange for larger deductibles, essentially adjusting an enrollee’s position along the risk/cost continuum. To complement HDHP’s the federal government encourages participants to open Health Savings Accounts (“HSAs”) that create meaningful tax and retirement planning opportunities.

This course will examine the health insurance programs, HSA attributes and savings opportunities for taxpayers. It will consider:
• High Deductible Health Plans;
• Health Savings Accounts;
• Qualified Medical Expenses;
• Comparison with other retirement savings programs.
