The current state of employment-based health coverage

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Most insured Americans obtain health insurance coverage through an employer. The survival of this often-criticized form of coverage is due to policies that encourage it, in particular the favorable taxtreatment of employer payments, as well as to several inherent advantages of job-based coverage over both non-group and public coverage.
