Abstract
Health Savings Accounts ("HSAs") are the newest, and probably the most controversial, vehicle for providing tax-favored health benefits. Proponents, including the Bush administration, claim that they will control costs, reduce the number of uninsured Americans, and give consumers greater control over their health care decisions. Opponents claim that they unduly benefit the wealthy, will do little or nothing to control costs or extend coverage, and provide consumers with information that is insufficient to make educated decisions.
