Nearly a quarter of American workers who get health insurance through their employer say they want to leave their job but will not, because they are afraid of losing coverage.
The finding comes from a study by the West Health-Gallup Center on Healthcare in America, which reports that 24 percent of such workers, about 23 million adults, describe that situation. That is up significantly from 16 percent in 2021, the last time Gallup measured job lock.
