Quotes

"These numbers matter because health care-related costs will eat up a good portion of one's savings in retirement but it seems to be the cost that individuals have the least amount of awareness of" said Brad Kimler, executive vice president of Fidelity Benefits Consulting
"Do they have the potential to bend the cost curve?" Girod said. "Most people say, ‘yes,’ but the jury is still out. We have a lot of hope that those things can bend the cost curve."
...or food, many drastically underestimate health care costs and therefore don't incorporate it into their overall retirement plan," Kimler said. "These numbers aren't meant to scare people but educate people on the reality so they can take the necessary steps to plan for them while they are still working and saving."
"I think that is a very good renewal for us to have that it can stay flat with just that one increase in it" Massey said
