What’s New in Compliance?
IRS releases Notice 2026-5 with FAQs related to the OBBBA changes to Health Savings Accounts
The IRS has issued Notice 20265, offering new clarity on Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) and how they interact with telehealth services, bronze and catastrophic exchange plans, and Direct Primary Care Service Arrangements (DPCSA). This guidance includes FAQs related to each of these categories, designed to mitigate confusion about the impacts of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) changes to coverages that are now compatible with a Health Savings Account.
This notice includes FAQs tailored to each category, designed to ease confusion over OBBBA-related changes and help employers understand which coverages remain HSA-compatible.
Read the IRS Notice.
Dependent Care FSA changes may require plan document updates
With the One Big Beautiful Bill Act raising the contribution limits for Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (DC FSAs), plan sponsors should review and possibly revise their plan documents to align with the new cap. Consider conducting your nondiscrimination testing earlier in the year to give yourself plenty of time to address any issues—especially if you’re adopting the higher contribution limits.
