The rate of people who say they're covered by a current or former employer dropped from 45.5 percent to 43.4 percent from the end of 2013.

The nationwide survey of 3,537 adults also found that lower-income adults were more likely to skip care or fear bankruptcy over spiraling medical costs. But even affluent households have deferred care over concerns about finances."

"The U.S. uninsured rate is 16.1% so far in January, modestly down from 17.3% in December after the Affordable Care Act's requirement for Americans to have health insurance took effect on Jan. 1. The percentage of uninsured adults aged 18 and older for Jan. 2-19 is slightly lower than what Gallup has measured in any month since December 2012."

"Among all U.S. nonretirees, 401(k) plans and IRAs -- at 46% -- are the most commonly expected 'major source' of retirement funds, followed by Social Security (30%), savings accounts or CDs (25%), and pension plans (24%). Gallup has tracked these expectations since 2001, and self-directed retirement accounts such as 401(k) plans and Social Security have been the leading expected sources each year, with only minor variations in the year-to-year percentages for each."

"An employer-sponsored health insurance plan should not expect net medical savings from [GLP-1] medications, even with their impressive impacts on patient weight and health.... Lower prices would allow more people to benefit from these medications.... The Gallup Organization recently reported that public opinion of the quality of U.S. healthcare has declined to its lowest point since they started asking this question in 2001."

"Seventeen percent of U.S. adults report they know how much their healthcare products or services will cost before receiving them. Results are similar across key demographic groups, including by race/ethnicity, gender, age, education level, geographic region and health insurance coverage status, suggesting a societywide lack of awareness about one's healthcare costs, regardless of personal background."
