Effects of COVID on health insurance
In times of ambiguity, people need answers, options and flexible financial solutions. As a trusted consulting partner, you can help your clients effectively respond to their employees’ concerns by guiding them toward benefit solutions that can save them money and, at the same time, help them win with their workforce.
On Wednesday, July 22, industry experts Kyle Hays, senior vice president and practice lead at Aon Health Solutions, Kelly Eschweiler, senior vice president, director associate experience and rewards at UMB Financial Corporation, and Brian Hutchin, executive vice president, manager sales and strategy at UMB Healthcare Services, discussed:
• How employers are helping their people navigate their financial health during the current pandemic.
• How plan design can aid employers and employees in responding to financial uncertainty, and how it can work in their favor now.
• Why it makes sense for people to include an HSA in their long-term financial planning.
• How your HDHPs and HSAs are a winning combination for employers, their people and you.
Retain Clients with Holistic Wealth Planning that Includes HSAs
Holistic wealth planning uncovers all areas that should be considered for successful retirement.
Recent stock market swings caused by COVID-19 illustrate that a traditional defined contribution plan is unlikely to be able to meet the long-term needs of many retirees already struggling to cover skyrocketing healthcare costs.
Enter HSAs—a smaller, yet bright star in the retirement plan universe. They are a viable option for immediate funds in an emergency as well as an important tool for long-term planning.
Tune into this recorded webinar to hear our expert panelists discuss:
- Why HSAs are a great tool for setting aside pretax income for medical expenses.
- How HSAs are similar to—and different from—a traditional 401(k).
- How HSAs can be used during an emergency.
- Ways to maximize HSA features and benefits to create a successful and comprehensive wealth portfolio

The Truth About HSAs and Retirement
September 20, 2017
Hosted by BenefitsPRO
When is a medical plan also a savings plan? When it's a high deductible plan paired with a health savings account (HSA).
The continued adoption of high deductible plans has created a steady increase in HSA ownership over the past decade. And while many HSA accountholders are enjoying the advantages of a tax-free way to pay for today's health care expenses, only a small minority are benefitting from the real power of HSAs-funding future health care needs in retirement.
Hear why more and more financial advisors are calling HSAs "the new 401(k) or IRA." And how HSAs are creating fresh opportunities for brokers and financial advisors to help their clients' employees take control of health care spending and retirement planning.
This lively webinar will explore the key role HSAs play in creating financial security, specifically:
- How HSAs are shrinking the widening retirement income gap.
- Avoid taxes like a millionaire-on any salary.
- Investing for growth.
- Engaging employees in saving for the future.
