      It’s good, but plenty of employers offer similar amazing deals. On average, employers pay for 73% of health insurance premiums, contributing roughly $1500/month towards a premium of $2000/month.

      Lots of employees won’t choose the most expensive plan even if they only have to pay a quarter of the premium, because the average plan ($500/month from the employee) is still a lot of money.
