Sources and method
Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, Medical Expenditure Panel Survey–Insurance Component supplies the figures shown.
These estimates cover private-sector employer health plans. Worker contributions are what employees pay toward premiums. Total premiums also include the employer-paid portion; deductibles apply when covered care is used.
About these figures
These estimates describe employer-sponsored coverage in the source population. They do not describe every worker or the price of an individual Marketplace plan.
Place comparisons use the same data period. An older common period is named beside the comparison. A missing or withheld value is never changed to zero.
The CSV includes the original source notes, annotations and estimate margins where supplied. Original source data remain subject to their publishers’ terms.
We write with AI tools. Every figure comes from the data and sources named on this page, and automated checks compare it with them before it's published.
