Login To PrismThe Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has announced a notable increase in the contribution limits for Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) for 2024, a change that will offer greater flexibility for small businesses, their owners, and their employees.
The annual HSA contribution limit for individuals with self-only High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) coverage will rise to $4,150, marking a significant increase from the $3,850 limit set in 2023. Similarly, the limit for individuals with family HDHP coverage will increase to $8,300, up from $7,750 in 2023.
In a significant milestone, 2024 marks the first instance where an older married couple, both aged 55 or over, will be allowed to contribute more than $10,000 to their HSAs. This development is made possible by the combination of the increased standard contribution limit and the continuing ability for those aged 55 or older to contribute an extra $1,000 per person. This means that in the last 10 years leading up to retirement, a couple could potentially accumulate more than $100,000 in their HSAs.
The chart below shows a comparison of the 2024 versus the 2023 amounts. Get the details.

As an alternative to help employees save on insurance premiums, offer your groups a FlexSystem Premium Only Plan (POP) and take advantage of the discounted set-up fee of $100 ($165 regular price) through Thanksgiving!
Under Section 125, a POP allows employer-sponsored insurance premiums to be paid by the employee on a pre-tax basis – resulting in tax savings for the employer and employee. It’s a perfect solution for employers who don’t want to offer a Full Flexible Spending Account (FSA) Plan, but want to offer a tax savings benefit to employees.
To learn about eligible premiums under a POP, benefits and features for participants, and the FlexSystem POP deliverables, download the flyer.
