Theres some good news for those who fear that putting health care financial decisions in the hands of employees might produce nothing but confusion.
Instead, a new survey indicates that employees who actively contribute to their HSAs do indeed become more engaged and involved in managing their health. Buck Consultants, polled 23,000 members of the BenefitWallet HSA system and found that more than half of those actively participating in their HSA had made the effort to set aside more money for potential medical costs than they had before enrolling.
