Trump is against the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and has plans to repeal it. Fine. But what about Health Savings Accounts (HSA)? Where does the Donald come down on those? "Health care is not one of his key platform issues," said Begonya Klumb, CEO of UMB Healthcare Services (UMBF) - Get Report . "We don't know how hard he will push on Congress to take action, though he is in favor of Health Savings Accounts (HSA) for all." Hillary, on the other hand, is going to be focused on making the ACA work. She will stay the course and make incremental changes, in Klumb's view. That said, it is less clear where HSAs fit in under her administration. "The Democratic platform has been further influenced by Bernie Sanders and is feeling supported in continuing to focus on expanding access," said Klumb. "We would expect proposals for expanded access form her for public programs, as well as reducing the cost for health care."
