Increased IRS HSA limits for 2025 announced

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has announced the inflation-adjusted 2025 minimum deductibles, out-of-pocket (OOP) maximums, and contribution limits for heath savings accounts (HSAs) and qualified high deductible health plans (HDHPs).

These changes are effective on the employers’ benefit plan year beginning Jan. 1, 2025, or later.

• $1,650 for self-only coverage ($50 increase from 2024)
• $3,300 for family coverage ($100 increase from 2024)
• $3,300 for embedded individual deductible ($100 increase from 2024)

• $8,300 for self-only coverage ($250 increase from 2024)
• $16,600 for family coverage ($500 increase from 2024)
• Important: Be aware of the intersection of HSA and Affordable Care Act (ACA) rules. The 2025 ACA maximum is $9,200 for individual coverage (versus $9,450 in 2024)

• If you have one plan for self-only and family coverage and have an embedded OOP, the maximum amounts for 2025 are $8,300 for an individual and $16,600 for a family
• If you have one plan for self-only and family coverage and have a non-embedded OOP, the maximum amounts for 2025 are $8,300 for an individual and $9,200 for a family

• $4,300 for self-only coverage, an increase of $150 from 2024
