Soaring healthcare costs are reaching new, very critical levels. Hospitals are seeking higher reimbursements and pharmaceutical advancements are driving prices up with breakthrough treatments. Furthermore, labor expenses are rising and the Pacific Northwest is experiencing some of the highest inflation in the country. This has resulted in higher insurance carrier costs for almost every carrier across the board. Most small employers in Washington are bracing for significant rate increases, projected to range from 9-15% or higher for 2025. 

In light of these challenges, NMTA members are encouraged to take another look at the NMTA Health Trust for relief.
