HSA Administration Choices

We encourage our clients to shop around for HSA services, but if you're inclined to keep administration of your Health Savings Account in the Blue Cross and Blue Shield family, take a look at services offered by Blue Healthcare Bank, an independent licensee of the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association.

MedPlan Access doesn't endorse any insurance company/bank HSA arrangements, but Blue Healthcare Bank is a safe choice.  If you establish an HSA with Blue Healthcare Bank and later decide you'd prefer another financial institution, you can make a change while maintaining your HSA-compatible health insurance with Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois.
