UMB Healthcare Services Now Offering Benefit Spending Accounts

KANSAS CITY, Mo.--()--UMB Healthcare Services, a leading national HSA provider, is excited to announce a new suite of tax-advantaged benefit accounts that complements its current health savings accounts solution offered to employers.

UMB’s new offering, powered by WEX, delivers a seamless solution that is easy to implement, while offering features such as new financial wellness tools that help employees plan, save, and pay for healthcare, dependent and commuter expenses. The new offering also includes valuable support for employers to help drive employee adoption and engagement.
