The main one you might be interested in is this one though,

I've excerpted this from page 34 for your convenience.
"Other public programs include health insurance coverage provided by the Department of Veterans Affairs
(VA) and the Department of Defense (DOD). Enrollment for other public programs for 1987-2011 was
estimated using the levels from the enhanced CPS (SHADAC) and for 2012, 2013, and 2014 estimates
were extrapolated using the CPS. "
- tptacek 7y agoNone of these appear to contain the table you posted at the root of the thread, the table you now claim also includes the increased cost of veteran care due to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Can you just tell me how you made that table, so I can look at the source and evaluate your claim that it incorporates increased costs in the VA along with private health care?
- pg_bot 7y agoThe raw data comes from the following sublink from the first link in that group "NHE Summary including share of GDP, CY 1960-2017 [ZIP, 27KB]"[0] I computed the table by hand. You can recompute it if you like.

- tptacek 7y agoOh, for God's sake. The Kaiser foundation just tracks the stat we're actually talking about directly. Here's the numbers for employees covered by group insurance provided by their employers: 1999 2196 2000 2471 12.52% 2001 2689 8.82% 2002 3083 14.65% 2003 3383 9.73% 2004 3695 9.22% 2005 4025 8.93% 2006 4242 5.39% 2007 4479 5.59% 2008 4704 5.02% 2009 4824 2.55% 2010 5049 4.66% 2011 5429 7.53% 2012 5615 3.43% 2013 5884 4.79% 2014 6025 2.40% 2015 6251 3.75% 2016 6435 2.94% 2017 6690 3.96% 2018 6896 3.08%

- pg_bot 7y agoCan you provide a reference for this data, I'm not 100% sure what I'm looking at. I deleted a previous comment on why I think the data I used is better for analysis but I want to confirm that this is what I think it is before I comment further.
- tptacek 7y agoIt's the chart data from: https://www.kff.org/interactive/premiums-and-worker-contributions-among-workers-covered-by-employer-sponsored-coverage-1999-2018/ https://www.kff.org/interactive/premiums-and-worker-contribu... I'm sorry for getting snippy, I just couldn't untangle your numbers from your source even after you pointed to the raw XLS you got it from. If we just stay focused on commercial health care, we don't have to litigate whether the Iraq War (materially) impacted health care costs prior to the ACA. And: this thread is about whether employer shifts to HDHPs and (more broadly) the ACA has impacted those specific costs, not the total government cost of providing all health care services.
