Premiums Rise at a Lower Rate: Health care premiums rose 8% between spring 1992 and spring 1993, compared to an 11% rise in the year-earlier period, according to a survey by accounting firm KPMG Peat Marwick. The rise was double the rate of inflation but was the lowest rate since 1986-87. One reason was the swiftness with which employers have switched to plans that utilize health maintenance organizations. Last year, 58% of employers with 200 or more workers enrolled in such plans, compared to 29% five years ago.
