2023 HSA contribution limits increase considerably due to inflation
Health savings account (HSA) contribution limits will increase considerably in 2023. The IRS announced that 2023 HSA contribution limits will rise to $3,850 for self-only HSAs and to $7,750 for family HSAs. Those are increases of $200 and $450, respectively, from 2022.
The 2023 HSA limit increases are in response to our country’s recent spike in inflation, with rates increasing at a 40-year high.
The 2023 HSA limits were announced as part of Revenue Procedure 2022-24.
