Rising Healthcare Costs: Who Actually Pays the Bill

07-09-26 | 4:00 PM MT

Episode Description


When healthcare costs go up, the increase doesn't stop at the company's books. It gets passed down — to paychecks, deductibles, and the care employees skip because they can't afford it.


On this Behind the Quote episode, Kody King and Jon Knudson break down how rising healthcare costs move from business to employee: the cost-shifting most workers never see, how higher deductibles and premiums eat into take-home pay, and what employers can do to absorb the hit instead of passing it on.


We're inviting HR leaders, CFOs, and benefits consultants to join as panelists. Sign up to be a guest and bring the cost-shift you see hitting employees hardest.
