Premium hikes for health insurance

About 14 million Americans under age 65 receive health insurance through the non-group or individual market. In contrast, about 157 million U.S. residents get their coverage through an employer. According to a new survey from the Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation, people who buy their own health insurance had recent premium hikes for individual coverage that averaged 20%. Last year's increase for employer-sponsored family coverage remained almost unchanged.
