Numerous studies show that employer plans pay providers significantly more than Medicare.

Although, less is known about prices in nongroup plans sold both on and off the Affordable Care Act marketplaces where narrow networks and low-cost insurers are more prevalent.

In an ahead-of-print article published this week, Caroline Hanson and coauthors discover that providers paid substantially less ([link removed] ) by marketplace nongroup insurers as compared to employer small-group plans.

This will appear in the December 2024 issue. Order a copy ([link removed] ) or subscribe to the journal.
