Overview
  
Consumer Driven Health Plans and consumerism initiatives have evolved from infancy a decade ago to now serving 10 million American through HSA qualified High Deductible Health Plans (AHIP January 2010 Census) plus additional populations served through related arrangements. Employer benefit and health plan surveys continue to indicate consumer driven benefit plans and consumerism strategies as key objectives going forward.

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, along with subsequent and future guidance and other applicable state and federal regulatory provisions, will impact consumer driven health plans and related initiatives in a number of ways as the implementation timeline for health care reform continues to unfold.

Stakeholders involved with, or monitoring, consumer driven plans and initiatives must give significant, careful consideration to the specific challenges, opportunities and compliance issues raised through health reform, in order to position their organizations for 2011.

This session, led by national HSA and consumer driven plan experts Ashley Gillihan and Roy Ramthun, examines specific health care reform provisions that impact consumer driven plans and consumerism initiatives, identifies relevant challenges and compliance issues that result from these provisions, as well as strategic opportunities that stakeholders can capitalize upon.
