Your Raise vs. Your Premium: The Hidden Tax on Employer Plans.

Think your company health plan shields you from Washington's problems? Think again. Rising market costs are a "hidden tax" that pushes up what your employer pays—and what you pay for deductibles, co-pays, and family coverage. In 2024, the average family premium hit $25,572. That is money being spent on bureaucracy, not better care.

Don't accept rising costs just because they come through HR. Use your next premium or deductible hike as the motivation to research fixed-price, world-class healthcare. Your budget for care is already there! Learn how to convert your hidden tax into real savings.

Challenge: Research the total cost of your most-needed procedure (dental, ortho, cardiac, etc.) abroad. Use your potential 2026 premium increase as your travel budget. Share your discoveries with our community!
