Employers anticipate a significant rise in the cost of health insurance plans, averaging an 8.2% increase for 2027 compared to this year. This marks the largest spike in over 20 years.
Based on a survey conducted by Marsh, more than 1,800 employers shared their expectations for upcoming health care costs. The findings revealed particular factors contributing to this surge in insurance expenses. The prediction exceeds any annual increase since 2003.
