Will Divestment from Employment-Based Health Insurance Save Employers Money? The Case of State and Local Governments
National Bureau of Economic Research [NBER] Link to more items from this source
June 16, 2014

Full divestment would cost SLGs more than they currently pay, due primarily to penalty costs. Selective divestment could save SLGs nearly $119 billion over 10 years at the expense of the federal government."
