- HSA holders can choose to save up to $3,450 for an individual and $6,900 for a family (HSA holders 55 and older get to save an extra $1,000 which means $4,450 for an individual and $7,900 for a family) – and these contributions are 100% tax deductible from gross income.
- Minimum annual deductibles are $1,350 for self-only coverage or $2,700 for family coverage.
