U.S. employer healthcare costs are expected to rise by 9.5% in 2027, according to insurance broker Aon. This increase, driven by higher medical use and spending on expensive drugs, will push the average cost per employee above $19,000. Workers' contributions are also set to increase, with out-of-pocket spending and payroll contributions totaling an average of $5,297 in 2027. The rise in costs is part of a sustained period of healthcare inflation, with employers exploring cost-management strategies to offset increases.
