The United States is unique among economically advanced nations in its reliance on employers to provide health benefits voluntarily for workers and their families. Although it is well known that this system fails to reach millions of these individuals as well as others who have no connection to the work place, the system has other weaknesses. It also has many advantages. Because most proposals for health care reform assume some continued role for employers, this book makes an important contribution by describing the strength and limitations of the current system of employment-based health benefits. It provides the data and analysis needed to understand the historical, social, and economic dynamics that have shaped present-day arrangements and outlines what might be done to overcome some of the access, value, and equity problems associated with current employer, insurer, and government policies and practices. Health insurance terminology is often perplexing, and this volume defines essential concepts clearly and carefully. Using an array of primary sources, it provides a store of information on who is covered for what services at what costs, on how programs vary by employer size and industry, and on what governments doâ€"and do not doâ€"to oversee employment-based health programs. A case study adapted from real organizations' experiences illustrates some of the practical challenges in designing, managing, and revising benefit programs. The sometimes unintended and unwanted consequences of employer practices for workers and health care providers are explored. Understanding the concepts of risk, biased risk selection, and risk segmentation is fundamental to sound health care reform. This volume thoroughly examines these key concepts and how they complicate efforts to achieve efficiency and equity in health coverage and health care. With health care reform at the forefront of public attention, this volume will be important to policymakers and regulators, employee benefit managers and other executives, trade associations, and decisionmakers in the health insurance industry, as well as analysts, researchers, and students of health policy.

Britain is going through the most radical upheaval of the benefits system since its foundations were laid at the end of the 1940s. In Broken Benefits, Sam Royston argues that social security isn’t working, and without a change in direction, it will be even less fair in the future. Drawing on original research and high-profile debates, this much-needed book provides an introductory guide to social security, correcting misunderstandings and exposing poorly understood problems. It reveals how some workers pay to take on additional hours; that those who pay national insurance contributions may get nothing in return; that some families can be paid to split apart; and that many people on the lowest incomes are seeing their retirement age rise the fastest. Broken Benefits includes real-life stories, models of household budgets, projections of benefit spending, and a free online calculator showing the impact of welfare changes on personal finances. The book presents practical ideas of how benefits should be reformed, to create a fairer, simpler and more coherent system for the future.

The overseas allowances and benefits system has grown dramatically since World War II, reflecting an increased U.S. presence overseas. Civilian employees are authorized benefits and allowances either to reimburse them for extraordinary living costs abroad and/or to recruit and retain them for service overseas. In 1974 and 1975, GAO reported that different statutory and regulatary authorities have created a fragmented system resulting in inequities, inefficiencies, and low employee morale. GAO evaluated actions taken on the prior recommendations to make the overseas allowances and benefits system more uniform and equitable. The review of the overseas benefits and allowances system reveals that system problems identified by GAO in 1974 and 1975 still exist. As a result, the system continues to be inefficient and does not promote equitable treatment of civilian employees stationed overseas. The Interagency Committee on Overseas Allowances and Benefits for U.S. Employees (IAC) was not the independent policymaking body GAO envisioned to conduct an objective and thorough review of the benefits and allowances system. IAC failed to adequately respond to system weaknesses because it stressed system uniformity at any cost. GAO believes uniformity is important, but the work of IAC should have also focused on the type of benefit and allowance required to meet specific overseas location needs at the lowest cost. System problems identified in 1974 and 1975 that still remain include: (1) legislative differences exist; (2) individual benefits and allowances are not specifically related to an identified purpose; and (3) cost and program data are not available to facilitate decisionmaking or to explain system differences to employees. Moreover, a ceiling on overseas holidays has not been established as recommended. GAO still believes that a more systematic approach is desirable for an equitable overseas benefits and allowances system.
