Health-Care Costs Rise!

Not surprisingly, a WSJ report states that "Workers should brace for more out-of-pocket costs next year".

Most employers are planning to shift health-care costs to their employees in 2013 to help offset rising premiums.

In all, 58% of employers - a mix of large, medium and small - said they plan to increase employee contributions in 2013 continuing a trend that has persisted since 2005.

Prior to that, generally, only one third of employers said they planned to shift costs.
