Abstract:

The Kaiser Family Foundation/Health Research and Educational Trust 2002 Annual Employer Health Benefits Survey includes findings on employer health plans including coverage, costs, enrollment patterns, health plan choice, and employee costs. This survey of 3,262 employers provides data and information on recent increases in insurance premiums, current cost-sharing requirements for employees, the shift to less restrictive forms of managed care, and the effects of the rising cost of prescription drugs on health care premiums.
