2010 Health Savings Account Limits

The IRS has released the 2010 dollar limits and requirements for Health Savings Accounts. The 2010 contribution limits are:

$3,050 for single plans; and
$6,150 for family plans.

You have to have a "high deductible" plan to qualify to make an HSA contribution. That is a plan with an annual deductible of at least $1,200 for single plans and $2,400 for family coverage. The plans can't have annual out-of-pocket expenses (besides premiums) in excess of $5,950 for single coverage and $11,900 for family coverage.
