The HSA Conference is designed to educate plan sponsors that currently offer, or are considering offering, these accounts. It’s also a great opportunity for advisers who want to get up to speed on this fast-growing benefit option. Through various panel discussions and presentations, employers will see how best to offer this benefit, and advisers will learn how to support them in the process. Topics to be discussed include: How HSAs operate; best practices in HSA provider selection and ongoing administration; how to boost employees’ knowledge, and use, of their benefit; and more. Register to attend the conference on April 13 and 14.

ON THIS DATE: In 1785, Thomas Jefferson was appointed minister to France. He succeeded Benjamin Franklin. In 1864, President Abraham Lincoln signed a brief document officially promoting then-Major General Ulysses S. Grant to the rank of lieutenant general of the U.S. Army, tasking the future president with the job of leading all Union troops against the Confederate Army. In 1876, the first discernible speech was transmitted over a telephone system when inventor Alexander Graham Bell summoned his assistant in another room by saying, “Mr. Watson, come here; I want you.” Bell had received a comprehensive telephone patent just three days before. In 1913, in Toledo, Ohio, William Knox became the first bowler to make a perfect score of 300 in an American Bowling Congress tournament. In 1933, soon after Adolf Hitler became chancellor, the first concentration camp in Germany opened at Dachau. In 1949, American citizen Mildred Gillars, who earned the nickname “Axis Sally” as a radio propagandist for the Nazi government during World War II, was convicted of treason. She served 12 years in prison. In 1969, James Earl Ray pled guilty to murdering American civil rights leader Martin Luther King, Jr., and was sentenced to 99 years in prison.
