NYC report finds prices, not usage, drive rising healthcare costs
Original: NYC healthcare report: Prices, not usage, are behind rising costs for city workers
A new Crain's New York Business report on New York City's employee healthcare finds that rising costs for city workers are driven by higher prices for care rather than increased utilization. The finding points to what services are charged — not how often they are used — as the key factor behind growing expenses for the city's health plans.
Why now: Rising healthcare costs for city workers are a pressing fiscal and labor issue in New York.
