TUCSON, Ariz., Nov. 23 /PRNewswire/ -- HealthEquity, an industry leader in HSA administration and education and the first company to offer a completely integrated Health Savings Account (HSA), has announced the publication of The Complete HSA Guidebook.
The authors of The Guidebook will be participating in a book signing on Monday, November 29, 2004, at the Consumer Driven Health Care Conference (CDHCC) at the Marriott Wardman Park, Washington, D.C., from 6:00 - 8:00pm.

HealthEquity's CEO and co-founder Stephen Neeleman, M.D., authored the Guidebook with renowned authors Hazel Witte, J.D., and Sophie Korczyk, Ph.D. In addition to his duties with HealthEquity, Neeleman is an Assistant Professor of Surgery and a practicing general and trauma surgeon at the University of Arizona in Tucson. Witte and Korczyk previously authored The Complete Idiot's Guide to Managed Health Care (Macmillan 1998).
This 200 page publication offers a comprehensive description of the basics and complexities surrounding the HSA law that became effective January 1, 2004 -- including all of the subsequent treasury regulation released by the IRS, as well as new 2004 tax reporting guidance released this month. The book also contains dozens of practical examples of how HSAs work in everyday life.
Industry experts are hailing The Complete HSA Guidebook as the first quality publication of its kind and a necessary resource to help accelerate the adoption of HSAs. "The Complete HSA Guidebook is the most comprehensive explanation of how HSAs work to date -- it should be a tremendous resource for people who want to be protected from catastrophic illness and save tax free money for the future." -- John Desser, Founder, Coalition for Affordable Health Coverage (http://www.cahc.net/)
