Foremost healthcare issue for small business owners is cost
5/21/2007
The National Federation of Independent Business, the nation's leading small business advocacy group, in a briefing today released its Small Business Healthcare Survey, the most recent, comprehensive small business healthcare data available. The survey of small business owners identified cost as the single most important problem facing the health system today.
The new survey, which polled NFIB members, is the latest healthcare research measuring the awareness, attitudes and beliefs of the small business community. Small business owners responding to the survey indicated they believe the price mechanism could work to reduce healthcare costs. Seventy percent of NFIB members believe that making consumers more aware of healthcare and health insurance costs will encourage them to become better healthcare consumers.
