On May 3, 2022, the IRS released Revenue Procedure 2022-24, which provides the 2023 inflation-adjusted limits for HSAs and HSA-qualifying HDHPs. According to the revenue procedure, the 2023 annual HSA contribution limit will increase to $3,850 for individuals with self-only HDHP coverage (up $200 from 2022) and to $7,750 for individuals with anything other than self-only HDHP coverage (family or self + 1, self + child(ren), or self + spouse/domestic partner coverage), an increase of $450 from 2022.
For qualified HDHPs, the 2023 minimum statutory deductibles will be $1,500 for self-only coverage (up $100 from 2022) and $3,000 for individuals with anything other than self-only coverage (an increase of $200 from 2022). The 2023 maximum out-of-pocket limits will increase to $7,500 for self-only coverage (up $450 from 2022) and up to $15,000 for anything other than self-only coverage (up $900 from 2022). For reference, out-of-pocket limits on expenses include deductibles, copayments and coinsurance, but not premiums. Additionally, the catch-up contribution maximum remains $1,000 for individuals aged 55 years or older (this is a fixed amount not subject to inflation).
The maximum amount that may be made newly available for plan years beginning in 2023 for excepted benefit HRAs is $1,950 (up $150 from 2022).
The 2023 limits may impact employer benefit strategies, particularly for employers coupling HSAs with HDHPs. Employers should ensure that employer HSA contributions and employer-sponsored qualified HDHPs are designed to comply with the 2023 limits.
