OVERLAND PARK, Kan., Dec. 19, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Greg Champlain has been named regional sales manager for Ohio for First Horizon Msaver, a leading administrator of Health Savings Accounts (HSAs).

Champlain, a licensed health agent, has been a member of the Msaver internal broker support team. He will be based in Columbus, Ohio, starting Jan. 7.
HSA-qualified health plans give all types of employees more control over their healthcare expenses by combining a lower-premium, higher-deductible health plan with a health savings account. The HSA is an account that an employee uses to set aside funds on a pre-tax or tax-deductible basis to pay for routine healthcare such as office visits, prescription drugs or lab tests. Money that isn't spent during the year rolls over to cover future healthcare expenses.
First Horizon Msaver works with health insurance brokers and agents throughout the country to open and administer HSAs for their customers who select HSA-qualified health plans. In addition, Msaver provides support through internal and external service teams and by providing accredited continuing education seminars.
D.J. Johnson, senior vice president of sales for First Horizon Msaver, said, "Greg has proven to be a valuable team member and we are pleased that we will have someone with his experience and abilities serving the Ohio market."
