IRS Releases 2020 Inflation Adjusted Amounts for HSAs

The IRS has released Revenue Procedure 2019-25 detailing the HSA contribution limit increases for 2020.

  • The 2020 HSA contribution limit for individual coverage will increase by $50 to $3,550.

  • The 2020 HSA contribution limit for family coverage (employee plus at least one dependent) will increase by $100 to $7,100.

The catch-up contribution limit of $1,000 is fixed by law and does not adjust for inflation.

The Revenue Procedure also includes the 2020 calendar year minimum deductible and out-of-pocket maximums allowed for a plan to qualify as a high deductible health plan (HDHP)—the required coverage for an individual to be eligible to make or receive HSA contributions.

  • The 2020 minimum deductible for individual coverage will increase by $50 to $1,400.

  • The 2020 minimum deductible for family coverage will increase by $100 to $2,800.

  • The 2020 maximum out-of-pocket limit for individual coverage will increase by $150 to $6,900.

  • The 2020 maximum out-of-pocket limit for family coverage will increase by $300 to $13,800.** **
