Kaiser Employee Health Benefits Survey - 2009

Today the Kaiser Family Foundation, along with the Health Research Educational Trust (HRET), released their 2009 Employee Health Benefits Survey that examines insurance premium costs as well as other items within a health benefits package including drug benefits, office visits, wellness benefits, health risk assessments, retiree benefits, and on-site clinics.

Premiums for employer-sponsored health insurance rose to $13,375 annually for family coverage this year, with employees on average paying $3,515 and employers paying $9,860. A number of the study's findings will be published today in a Health Affairs web exclusive.
