Guest avh41 Posted October 27, 2005 Posted October 27, 2005 The DOL National compensation survey reports employer premiums for health coverage as $252 and $576 for single and family coverage respectively. http://www.bls.gov/news.release/ebs2.nr0.htm The Kaiser Family Foundation reports premiums as $335 and $907. http://www.kff.org/insurance/7315/summary/index.cfm Anyone else find this gap interesting? I dug a little into the survey methodology - couldn't find any glaring differences.
papogi Posted October 27, 2005 Posted October 27, 2005 The Kaiser numbers are total premium. Multiply those numbers by 12 and you get $4020 single and $10884 family. Those are annual premiums. The DOL numbers are actual employer amounts, after the employee portion is removed.
