Opening a Personal Health Savings Account
While Blue Shield is not a financial institution and does not provide tax advice or HSAs, we have a relationship with Wells Fargo, a company that offers these accounts. |
| |
| Wells Fargo is: |
- The only 'AAA-rated' bank (Moody’s highest credit rating) in the United States.
- A provider of health care spending accounts since 1987.
- One of the first companies to offer HSAs when they became available in 2004.

| While we have a standing relationship with Wells Fargo, members interested in opening an HSA may do so at the bank or with the HSA administrator of their choice. |
