This year will see some major transformations in healthcare benefits. In the past, employers would complain about annually increasing premiums but would nevertheless sign on the dotted line. My suspicion is that this year — and this decade — will see much less of that.
That’s mostly because some of the biggest and most beloved brands — Amazon, Apple and Walmart, for example — have already taken the lead, showing employers of similar stature that they can choose a different path and take healthcare into their own hands.
