HealthEquity, eHealthInsurance Adds HSA Enrollment

Salt Lake City, Utah-based HealthEquity, a provider of information and health savings accounts (HSA), said today that it has teamed up with online health insurance provider eHealthInsurance to offer health savings accounts (HSAs) online. The two companies are co-branding a website that allows consumers to sign up for health insurance and a health savings account. HSAs are the new tax-advantaged accounts that operate much like a retirement savings plan, but can be used to pay for medical expenses.
