National Business Group on Health [NBGH] Link to more items from this source
Aug. 7, 2018

"[E]mployers project the total cost of providing medical and pharmacy benefits will rise 5% for the sixth consecutive year in 2019. Including premiums and out-of-pocket costs for employees and dependents, the total cost of health care is estimated to be $14,099 per employee this year, and projected to rise to an average of $14,800 in 2019. Employers will cover roughly 70% of those costs; employees will bear about 30%. Employers cited high cost claims, specialty pharmacy, and specific diseases as key drivers of cost increases."
