National HealthClaim Corporation If you’re an advisor that works with business owners, don’t forget to maximize their bottom line by introducing a Health Spending Account (HSA) from National HealthClaim. Tens of thousands of business owners in Canada are taking advantage of HSAs, but many are still unaware of the potential tax savings.

Talk to business owners about their family dental care, eye, and vision costs, prescription drug costs, or routine paramedicals like massages or physiotherapy. Once you tally these costs, show them how within fifteen minutes of meeting you, you can save them money with an HSA. You’re bringing them a product no one really has talked to them about before. And it’s all about savings. It gives you a foot in the door for more conversations that follow, regarding insurance and other products that you’ll help your clients with.

Contact Andrew Brandsma at andrew@nationalhealthclaim.com or call 587-331-9257 to learn more, and to discuss how promoting HSAs with your clients can also result in thousands of dollars in recurring residual commissions for your business.
