Real-life example of one district's possible health plan savings
Compare coverages and costs of PriorityPOS SM plus PriorityHSA SM
(our
point-of-service health plan combined with a health savings account)
with the MESSA health plan. All figures were taken from an actual quote
-
the numbers speak for themselves.
Notes about this Priority Health quote:
- A deductible applies.
- Employer fully funds all employee HSAs and still experiences reduced costs.
- HSA funds cover employee deductible; employee pays only copays.
