We should expand health savings accounts so people can save in a tax-advantaged way for more routine healthcare needs.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We need to increase access to health insurance through Health Savings Accounts and high deductible policies, so individuals and families can purchase the insurance that's best for them and meets their specific needs.
One way to make health care more affordable is a Flexible Savings Account that allows families to save tax free money to pay for medical bills.
Good health is not something we can buy. However, it can be an extremely valuable savings account.
I believe we can incentivize more affordable health care in general by better regulating insurance and creating meaningful competition for health care services.
We should make it so that young people pay their fair share for health care, and nothing more. And instead of Washington telling us what to buy, let's get back to letting every American choose the plan that's best for them and their family.
Investing in health will produce enormous benefits.
Health insurance should be a given for every citizen.
We designed both our state employee health plans and the one we created for low-income Hoosiers as Health Savings Accounts, and now in the tens of thousands these citizens are proving that they are fully capable of making smart, consumerist choices about their own health care.
We need more access to quality health care, not less.
We ought to be incentivizing people to save more of their own money for use taking care of their healthcare expenses, and what we have done is we have set it up where health savings accounts are harder and harder to use for narrower and narrower purposes.
