IRS Increases HSA Contribution Limits & Deductible Amount

Written by Plexus Communications | Jun 5, 2019 8:42:46 PM


The IRS has released their adjusted contribution limits for HSAs. Those with an HSA-eligible high-deductible health plan will be able to provide additional money into their HSA in 2020.
In 2020, the HSA contribution limits will be as follows:

  • $3,550 for individual coverage under an HDHP (a $50 increase from 2019)

  • $7,100 for family coverage (a $100 increase from 2019)

While the amount employees can contribute to an HSA is increasing, the deductible requirement for a plan to qualify for an HSA is also increasing. This increase is to the minimum deductible amount that a high-deductible health plan must impose to be HSA-eligible. 
For 2020, deductibles are as follows:

  • $1,400 for an individual (a $50 increase from 2019), with a maximum of $6,900 (a $150 increase from 2019)

  • $2,800 for families (a $100 increase from 2019), with a maximum of $13,800 (a $300 increase from 2019).
