Have you ever wondered if you should choose the High Deductible Health Plan for your health insurance? Professor Justin Sydnor of the Wisconsin School of Business, has been partnering with ETF for a few years to study the High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) option. This study uses anonymized data on health insurance claims to analyze how out-of-pocket costs and health care use differ for State of Wisconsin employees enrolled in the HDHP versus IYC Health Plan (non-HDHP) designs. As a part of this project, Professor Justin Syndor and team created the Health Plan Choice Project website providing research-backed videos and resources to help compare the plan-design options.
