UnitedHealth sees explosion in HSA and HRA enrollments

Nationally, membership in its HSA and HRA plans jumped 75 percent from June 2005, with more than 750,000 new individuals participating in the last year.

"Consumers are becoming much more comfortable with account-based plan designs," said Mike Tarino, CEO of Definity Health, the UnitedHealth unit that manages these health plans. "More than 13,000 employers have already turned to us to incorporate a consumer-driven design into their benefits strategy, and our CDH membership among large, national employers alone recently topped 1 million."
