The IRS has released Revenue Procedure 2026-24, establishing new inflation-adjusted limits for Health Savings Accounts and high-deductible health plans effective in 2027. These updates include increased contribution limits, higher minimum deductibles, and expanded out-of-pocket maximums, along with new provisions for direct primary care service arrangements under the One, Big, Beautiful Bill Act.

On June 1, 2026, the IRS released Rev. Proc. 2026-24. In this Revenue Procedure, the IRS sets the following inflation-adjusted limits for 2027:

  • Health Savings Account (HSA) annual contribution limits are $4,500 for self-only coverage and $9,000 for family coverage

  • High-deductible health plan minimum annual deductibles are $1,750 (self-only) and $3,500 (family)

  • Out-of-pocket maximums are $8,700 (self-only) and $17,400 (family)

  • The maximum amount for excepted benefit health reimbursement arrangements (HRA) is $2,250

  • Reflecting a new provision added by the One, Big, Beautiful Bill Act, a direct primary care service arrangement (DPCSA) will not disqualify an individual from HSA eligibility so long as aggregate monthly DPCSA fees do not exceed $150 for individual coverage or $300 if the arrangement covers more than one person.

The chart below compares these new amounts to the 2026 limits:
