Under the terms of the agreement, employees of NRECA's8217;s more than 1,100 consumer-owned cooperatives in 50 states who select an HSA-qualified high deductible health plan option during their next employee benefit open enrollment period will be offered a First Horizon HSA account 's8211; a special interest-bearing account that will help them more effectively save money for medical expenses.



Jon Anderson, Director of New Business and Market Research with NRECA commented, 's8220;By partnering with First Horizon Msaver, we have the ability to offer our member organizations the advantages of a high deductible health plan coupled with a quality HSA product. Employees may choose to enroll in one of three high-deductible health plans, and can then open their HSA account in a single online session. This eliminates many of the problems and follow-up issues created with paper-based enrollment processes.'s8221;



In a related phase of the program, NRECA's8217;s membership will gain access to a funding portal which simplifies and accelerates the process of depositing employee and/or employer contributions into individual employee First Horizon HSA accounts.



Our emerging online technology and world class customer service fits the needs of the NRECA members's extremely well,'s8221; said E. Craig Keohan, President of First Horizon Msaver. 's8220;We are pleased and honored to have been chosen as their HSA custodian and look forward to our partnership.
