The Edcomm Group Offers Product & Sales Training To Bankers on Health Savings Accounts

New York, NY (PRWEB) December 8, 2005

With the rising cost of health care, and more employers shifting the burden of health insurance onto individuals, Health Care Savings Accounts (HSAs) have become a major product focus for banks and insurance companies. To respond to the need for trained platform, sales and customer service representatives, The Edcomm Group has announced the unveiling of a new eLearning program focused on product and sales training on Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) for financial institutions.

Established by Congress, Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) allow individuals to save money to pay for future medical expenses on a tax-free basis. Employers can offer HSAs to their employees, whereby both the employer and the employee can contribute to the account; and individuals may open HSA accounts directly with banks and insurance companies.

Focus on Health Savings Accounts is a comprehensive eLearning program that will provide training on the Health Savings Account product. Beginning with “History of HSAs” to “HSA Resources,” participants will learn about HSAs in an interactive eLearning environment designed to increase both comprehension and retention. Focus on Health Savings Accounts emphasizes both product features and benefits, and sales approaches geared towards teaching participants how to become trusted sources of expertise about this product for their customers.
