10/05/2007  The Asuris HSA Healthplan: A new kind of health care coverage

Asuris is excited to announce the new Asuris HSA Healthplan to the group market—a whole new HSA offering with improved coverage, seamless banking integration, and a dynamic set of employer and member tools that make set-up and administration a snap. Check out the details to see everything our new plan has to offer.

Smart new features mean a better HSA plan
While an HSA from Asuris has always featured affordable rates, upfront preventive care, and one of the largest provider networks in the region, the Asuris HSA Healthplan offers new and expanded features such as:

Improved Coverage Features:

• Preventive care is now provided before the deductible, with no annual limits, so your clients can focus on wellness in the workplace. Coverage expands to include preventive mammography and prostate screening services as well.
• New individual embedded deductible options are great for families, providing extra protection against the unexpected.
• Wellness programs such as the CareEnhance® Nurseline and Asuris Health Coach^SM are automatically included for groups of 50 or fewer employees.*
  

New Tools Make Sales and Set-up a Snap

• An educational flash provides a tutorial on the basics of the HSA, and an interactive calculator allows employees to see how the plan will work for them.
• Modular presentations provide a customized approach to your sales meetings, bringing together the critical components to meet your clients' needs.
• HSA Compliance and Selling Guides give you all of the information and resources you need to ensure groups are set up properly on the HSA plan.

Employers and Members Experience a New Level of Support

• Seamless integration with Asuris Financial Services, powered by Health Benefit Bank, means an extra level of support for both employers and members:
  • A dedicated group services team is there to help employers navigate through the set-up and open enrollment processes.
  • Employees are offered world-class support and banking integration, allowing them to manage their claims, savings account and transactions all in one user-friendly Web portal
• An interactive, guided tour provides members with personalized support with everything they need to manage their HSA-from step-by-step basics to a customized approach on how to maximize their health care dollars.
• Members are always supported by an HSA-dedicated customer service team, personal health coaches, and a 24-hour nurse.

*Groups of 51+ will have the option to purchase these components through Asuris Wellspring^SM
