The Marketplace websites have filters you can use, and one of them will filter the results so that you only see HSA-eligible plans. In past years, that filter would generally only show a few plans, or zero in some areas. For 2026, it will show all Bronze plans (plus others in some areas)

The maximum you can contribute to an HSA in 2026 is $4,400 if you have self-only HDHP coverage, and $8,750 if the plan also covers at least one other family member.
And yes, you can open an HSA on your own, through a bank or investment brokerage, and contribute as long as you have an HDHP.
