Why does H.S.A. save $

HMO (Health Maintenance Organization)
HMO members are unaware of their claims cost. $20 copay for most services.

H.S.A. (Consumer Driven High Deductible Health Plan with Health Savings
Account)

Patients receive EOBs. Awareness of claims cost fosters natural interest in
consumer involvement.

H.S.A. is a tax-free savings plan
