The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality has released national tables from the 2014 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey Insurance Component (MEPS-IC), an annual survey of employer-sponsored health insurance. These tables contain estimates for private-sector employers. State and metropolitan area tables for the private sector will be released in July.
This Statistical Brief discusses the 2014 national survey estimates and also examines changes in the survey estimates over the years 2008-2013. In addition to statistics for all private-sector employers, it considers results for small employers (those in establishments in firms with fewer than 50 employees) and large employers (those in establishments in firms with 50 or more employees). All differences noted are at the 0.05 significance level.
