This briefing, co-sponsored by the Alliance for Health Reform and Kaiser Family Foundation, addresses health savings accounts and high-deductible health plans. These questions and others are answered: What impact do HSAs have on the individual and group health insurance markets? How much would these proposed changes encourage the purchase of high-deductible plans paired with HSAs? How would this affect overall health spending?
