Rise in health insurance premium(s) is consuming large portion of employer's budget
Employers are passing cost to employees in form of high deductible plans which impacts up to 43% of employees for delayed/ skipped tests, treatments & prescriptions
Average annual health insurance premium in US is $28k for a family which is an equivalent to paying a mortgage
Historically health insurance was always meant as a risk instrument to hedge against any
catastrophic health event such as accident, medical emergency or diagnosed with critical
disease. But today people buy due to fear.
With average employee tenure of 4 yrs and as workforce culture is changing (freelancing,
contract) the average usage of health insurance for catastrophic health events has been
less than 5% by employees. Which begs several questions: Should
employer offer health insurance to all employees? With rising high cost of group health
insurance premium, is there any significant utilization for catastrophic health events?
Similar to a freelance marketplace platform, employer or coalition has an ability to generate RFQ for a volume purchase for surgeries & receive a deep discount through collective bargaining along with data that supports transparency.
