How the health savings account (hsa) contribution calculator works

It looks up your annual HSA limit by coverage type (plus the catch-up if you are 55 or older), caps your contribution at that limit, and multiplies by your marginal tax rate to show the tax you save.

Worked example

Worked example: with your planned contribution of $4,000, combined marginal tax rate of 27.00% and years to project of 20, the hsa contribution calculator shows tax saved this year of $1,080.

Contribution limit: $4,300
Your contribution: $4,000
Remaining room: $300
Tax savings: $1,080

The formula

Limit = self-only or family limit + (age 55+ ? $1,000 : 0). Tax savings = min(contribution, limit) × marginal tax rate.
