What are the current HSA providers missing about the needs of the consumer?
Need to save money for healthcare.
No kidding, right?
Well, as reported by the Federal Reserve, 1 in 3 Americans stated that a $400 unexpected medical bill is catastrophic. People must make saving for healthcare a priority. This is a MUST to do, not a nice to have. Funds must be set aside that are separate from paying for groceries, saving for a new car, or any other expenditure.
You play the lottery?
About 50% of Americans play the state lotteries every week. Despite the near impossible odds, millions of Americans religiously fork over an average of $1,000 a year on lottery. How do we take the best of the lottery and apply that to healthcare savings? How do we make saving for healthcare fun?
Saving and Spending
You need segregated funds for healthcare but you need to spend it. Spending on products and services which make or keep you and your family healthy is a good thing.
Keep it Simple
The messaging about the solution, the value proposition, how it works.. all that needs to be very simple.
Community
Americans love to learn about and adopt new solutions based on information from friends and family, trusted influencers, and trusted brands. Referrals matter.
