On May 29, 2026, the IRS released Revenue Procedure 2026-24 to provide inflation-adjusted limits for health savings accounts (HSAs) and high deductible health plans (HDHPs) for 2027. The IRS is required to publish these limits by June 1 of each year.

These limits include the following:

These limits vary based on whether an individual has self-only or family coverage under an HDHP.

Eligible individuals with self-only HDHP coverage will be able to contribute $4,500 to their HSAs for 2027, up from $4,400 for 2026. Eligible individuals with family HDHP coverage will be able to contribute $9,000 to their HSAs for 2027, up from $8,750 for 2026. Individuals age 55 and older may make an additional $1,000 “catch-up” contribution to their HSAs.

The minimum deductible amount for HDHPs increases to $1,750 for self-only coverage and $3,500 for family coverage for 2027 (up from $1,700 for self-only coverage and $3,400 for family coverage for 2026). The HDHP maximum out-of-pocket expense limit increases to $8,700 for self-only coverage and $17,400 for family coverage for 2027 (up from $8,500 for self-only coverage and $17,000 for family coverage for 2026).

Employers sponsoring HDHPs should review their plans’ cost-sharing limits (i.e., the minimum deductible amount and the maximum out-of-pocket expense limit) when preparing for the plan year beginning in 2027.

Employers allowing employees to make pre-tax HSA contributions should update their plan communications with the increased contribution limits. Also, to prevent adverse tax consequences for employees, employers should review their benefit election processes and work with their payroll providers to help keep pre-tax HSA contributions within the adjusted IRS limits as much as possible.

The following chart shows the HSA and HDHP limits for 2027 compared to 2026. It also includes the catch-up contribution limit that applies to HSA-eligible individuals age 55 and older, which is not adjusted for inflation and stays the same from year to year.
