WASHINGTON–The Independent Insurance Agents and Brokers of America is joining other employer groups representing small business in lauding the president for signing legislation including a provision improving the flexibility and attractiveness of Health Savings Accounts.
President George W. Bush signed H.R. 6111, the Tax Relief and Health Care Act of 2006, into law yesterday.
The reforms are expected to help increase usage of these plans among small-business owners, self-employed individuals and workers who currently do not receive health care coverage on the job, according to officials at the IIABA.
