Abstract
This empirical study examines the health care coverage climate of 130 large and medium sized companies in New England. Human resource managers and/or benefits managers were asked to compare the plans that they currently offer their employees on a number of points. The primary focus was in the area of cost and cost containment. An attempt is made to identify the cost containment trends that are now a very high priority among employers.
