For 2026, the maximum out of pocket (OOP) cost sharing limit for the Affordable Care Act (ACA) has been increased to $10,600 for individual/self-only coverage and $21,200 for family/non-self-only coverage. This reflects an increase from 2025, where the maximum out of pocket (OOP) cost sharing limit was $9,200 for individual/self-only coverage and $18,400 for family/non-self only coverage. The qualified high-deductible health plans (QHDHP) must comply with the QHDHP self-only annual limit of $8,500 which remains the same as it was in 2025. Amounts are subject to change based on IRS and ACA guidelines.
