BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

IRS bumps up health savings account contribution max for 2015

The maximum contributions that can be made to health savings accounts will increase $50 for individuals and $100 for families in 2015.

The Internal Revenue Service announced Wednesday that the maximum contribution that can be made to an HSA in 2015 will be $3,350 for employees with single coverage, up from $3,300 this year.

The maximum HSA contribution for those with family coverage will be $6,650, up from $6,550.

The maximum out-of-pocket employee expense, including deductibles, will rise next year to $6,450 for single coverage from $6,350. For family coverage, it will increase to $12,900 from $12,700.

Increases in the HSA limits, which are detailed in Revenue Procedure 2014-30, are tied to changes in the cost of living.
