How To Save Money On Health Insurance Premiums Using HSA's
by: Charles E. White
Opening a health savings account (HSA) can save you hundreds on your health insurance premium and help pay for out of pocket expenses and deductibles. Anyone younger than age 65 who buys a qualified health insurance policy with a deductible of at least $1,000 for individuals, $2,000 for families, can open an HSA. An HSA lets you set aside pretax money up to the amount of the deductible (with an annual maximum of $2,600 for singles; $5,150 for families). You can use the money tax-free for medical expenses, and anything left over grows tax-deferred. You can use the money for anything after age 65 without penalty, but you will owe income taxes on any money that isn't used for medical expenses.
In many cases, the cost savings from buying a high-deductible policy make up for the higher out-of-pocket medical expenses you'll have to pay -- not to mention the tax benefits.
The HSA Insider Web site (http://www.hsainsider.com) has a comprehensive list of insurers offering HSA-eligible policies and financial institutions providing the investment accounts. You can also search for a quality high deductible health insurance plan to complement your HSA at Best Insurance Deals (http://www.Best-Insurance-Deals.net).

International Travel and Health Insurance
David M. Schmader
Embarking on Your Dream Vacation
Are your Plans Complete?
Your bags are packed, passport and papers in order and you couldn’t be in a
higher state of excitement preparing for travel to that wonderful, exotic location.
This is the vacation you have planned it seems forever. As you sit on the plane,
you and your partner discuss for the hundredth time the scuba diving you will
do, the awesome rock climbing and hikes into the rain forest. Everything is
perfect!
Life seldom gets better than this.
Despite all the excitement of travel, Americans do have some concerns.
According to a survey by the Chubb Group, more than 70% of Americans surveyed
said their greatest concern when traveling is suffering a medical emergency...more
than double the fear of being mugged (30.7%), three times the fear of being
injured in a terrorist attack (23.4%).
What happens if a medical emergency arises when traveling overseas?
Many people assume that while they are out of the U.S. or Canada they will be
covered by their standard medical plan. However, most traditional health insurance
plans are not designed for international travel.
According to the U.S. Department of Commerce, approximately 27 million travelers
board U.S. airlines for overseas destinations and almost 26 million foreign
travelers come to the U.S. each year. However, many are not prepared for a medical
emergency abroad.
Most traditional health insurance plans would not cover an unexpected illness
or injury during international travel. But travelers with international medical
insurance would have protection for scenarios ranging from a local ambulance
trip to an emergency evacuation for care at the nearest qualified medical facility.
Some even offer repatriation flights out of the country where the traveler is
located back to the US.
Available plans can cover individuals or groups for specific periods of time
abroad and can be in effect should they be stationed abroad for an extended
period of time. There are policies for corporations to insure their personnel,
plans to cover missionaries who are on an outreach program and for those participating
in extreme sports. International travel medical insurance should be considered
for anyone traveling or living abroad.
