Abstract

This atypical election cycle has diverted attention from the growing evidence that premiums for health insurance sold on the exchanges are rising while options have declined. Health expenditures are also again growing faster than the economy. In this issue of PERCspectives on Policy, PERC Executive Associate Director Andrew Rettenmaier, and PERC Director Thomas Saving, discuss the numerous factors that may lead to the continuing rise in health care spending for years to come.
