Healthcare Savings Account Transition - Blackout Has Ended!
It's now complete! Blue Cross has transferred all custodial responsibilities for your HSA from Bank of America to Acclaris, Inc., a Willis Towers Watson company.
As part of the USA Patriot Act required clearance, you may receive a letter from Acclaris asking for specific information to verify your identity. It is important to respond to this request immediately - your account will not open until your clearance is approved.
