Gartner is a research firm, and DirectPath is a benefits communication, enrollment and medical procedure cost estimation services firm.
The Gartner analysts created the new report using The Lab, a DirectPath database that gives information from 1,047 employer health plans offered by about 200 large U.S. employers.
The analysts found, for example, that the average employer health savings account (HSA) contributed fell to $512 this for single employees, from $514, but increased to $1,047, from $1,028, for employees with family coverage.
Similarly, the average employer health reimbursement arrangement (HRA) contribution fell to $484 for single employees, from $514, but increased to $1,028, from $990, for employees with family coverage.
