How to Use This Calculator

This calculator helps you determine how much more you can contribute to your Health Savings Account (HSA) and shows the tax savings you'll receive.

Tips:

  • Max out your HSA if possible - it's one of the best tax-advantaged accounts
  • Include both federal and state tax rates for total tax savings
  • Consider your HSA as a retirement account if you can afford to pay medical expenses out-of-pocket
  • You can contribute until the tax filing deadline (usually April 15) for the previous year
