HSA contribution calculator
A health savings account lets you set aside pre-tax money for medical costs if you have a high deductible health plan.
Enter your coverage, age and months of eligibility to see how much you can still put in this year.
How it's calculated
- The 2026 limit is $4,400 with self-only coverage and $8,750 with family coverage.
- If you are 55 or older at the end of the year, you can add $1,000.
- If you weren't eligible all year, the limit is prorated by the months you had HDHP coverage on the first day of the month.
- Employer contributions count toward the same limit, so they are subtracted from what you can add.
An example
With family coverage all year, age 56 and $1,000 from your employer, your limit is $9,750 and you can contribute $8,750 more.
