Section One: Cost of Health Insurance. The average annual premiums in 2014 are $6,025 for single coverage and $16,834 for family coverage. The average family premium increased 3% in the last year; the average single premium, however, is similar to the value reported in 2013 ($5,884).
The amount that a worker or employee contributes to the cost of health care continues to increase each year as premiums rise. In 2004, the average employee contributed a little more than $300 a month of the annual cost for single coverage and $800 a month for family coverage. By 2008, the costs of coverage for a family of four cost more than $1,000 a month or almost $13,000 a year.
