The new HSA contribution limits will become effective January 1, 2020. Employers may need to update their enrollment materials and communicate the new limits to employees as part of their enrollment process.
The HDHP cost-sharing limits for 2020 will apply for plan years beginning on or after January 1, 2020. Employers may need to make plan design changes for plan years beginning 2020.
