With steadily and rapidly increasing health insurance premiums today’s consumers and employers have adapted as best they can. The usual result is more out of pocket expenses for individuals in the form of higher deductibles and co-pays. This has become a necessity to keep premiums as affordable as possible.

It’s not unusual today to see health insurance deductibles of $5000, $7500, or even $10,000.

The government attempt to soften the blow for tax payers has been the advent of HSA (Health Spending Accounts) plans

These are a combination of a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) and a separate custodial savings account for future medical expenses.

With or without an HSA plan, a serious medical issue could result in a crippling out of pocket expense costing thousands of dollars. This would financially decimate many people.
