Important Information Regarding the Flores
HSA Solution: HSA Custodian Bank Transfer
Flores is excited to announce that an HSA custodian transition will take place this summer as we transfer from Avidia Bank to WealthCare Saver, a fully integrated HSA custodial solution that includes a modern investment experience. Flores will continue to administer the HSA plan, this is only a change in HSA custodians.
For more information on the WealthCare Saver investment solution, see the flyer and FAQ documents linked below. We will notify our current HSA clients of this transition on Tuesday, May 10th. The details of that communication including participant and employer flyers, a transition timeline, and other important information are included below for your preview.
A notice will be sent via US Mail to active HSA participants informing them of the change, including an updated investment fees schedule (WealthCare Saver Investment Fees), 30-days prior to the transition. We have also provided a draft communication and information flyer linked below that we will recommend your clients share with HSA participants in advance to notify them of this upcoming change to their benefit. As we near the transition period, we will send additional detailed communications to keep you informed.
