Original: Federal health insurance enrollees will pay 10.9% more, on average, toward premiums in 2027
Federal employees enrolled in the government's health insurance program will pay an average of 10.9% more toward their premiums in 2027, according to Federal News Network. The increase affects the hundreds of thousands of workers and retirees covered under the Federal Employees Health Benefits program, adding to household costs for civil servants already weighing pay and benefit changes.
