4/24/2008: Health Care Cost Hikes Significantly Lower for Companies With High Enrollment in Consumer-Directed Health Plans (AISHealth.com)
Excerpt: "A consumer orientation in health benefits appears to have a halo effect with advantages that go beyond those enrolled in consumer-directed health (CDH), according to a new study from Watson Wyatt and the National Business Group on Health (NBGH). Health cost increases for companies with high CDH enrollment are about half of those offering only traditional coverage, the authors of the report say."
