BASE® Announces Dates for Free Educational Webinar in February - Health Reimbursement Arrangements (HRAs) in 2010

Online, February 10, 2010 (Newswire.com) - BASE® announced this month that they would be conducting an educational webinar titled Health Reimbursement Arrangements in 2010. With two sessions scheduled in February, this webinar offers insurance agents, brokers, and accounting professionals an opportunity to learn more about Health Reimbursement Arrangements and how they can increase billable services while providing a great financial benefit to clients.

The HRA has been around since 1954, yet many small business owners and accounting professionals are still learning of the great tax savings that can be provided with this type of plan. As a new healthcare bill looms, the webinar will touch on why an HRA will continue to be beneficial.

This webinar will provide information regarding:
ï‚· The history of an HRA.
ï‚· Deductibility as it relates to small business owners.
ï‚· Why small group reform is important to follow.
ï‚· Continued benefits of HRA's in 2010 and beyond.

Shawndi Filby, Vice President of Business Development and Training for BASE®, will present Health Reimbursement Arrangements in 2010. With 14 years of experience working with HRA's, Shawndi has come to be a great resource for benefit information and compliance policy.
