In 2023, the total value of direct premiums written by private health insurance companies amounted to approximately 1.2 trillion U.S. dollars. This is more than double the 459.27 billion U.S. dollars recorded ten years prior in 2013, and over 200 billion U.S. dollars higher than the value recorded in 2022. Note these totals include direct premiums written under the Medicare and Medicaid programs, both of which are (largely) public funded.
