Health plan enrollment has been relatively stable for the last five years, with one exception — the participation of covered workers in high- deductible health plans with a savings option (HDHP/SO) has grown from 8 percent in 2009 to 13 percent in 2010, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation and Health Research & Educational Trust.
They report that 58 percent of covered workers are in preferred-provider organizations (PPOs). Other types of plan are health maintenance organizations (19 percent), HDHP/SOs (13 percent), point-of-service (POS) plans (8 percent), and indemnity plans (1 percent).
