# Healthcare costs top employee financial worries, survey finds 2026-08-13T03:10:44+00:00 | Business & Economy | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Healthcare costs have overtaken job security as the top financial worry for corporate employees, according to Tata AIG General Insurance's Corporate Health Protection Pulse 2026 survey. The poll of 748 workers across eight Indian cities found 94% feel stressed by unexpected medical expenses. Nearly 7 in 10 respondents said they could sustain themselves for only six months or less if they lost their jobs. The survey also highlights gaps in employer-provided insurance: 75% of those surveyed believe their group medical cover alone may not be enough during an emergency, and 45% have no personal health insurance plan. Although 88% consider uninterrupted coverage during a job change important, only 40% know how to maintain it. ## Coverage - timesnownews.com Tags: corporate employees, financial stress, health insurance, healthcare costs, job security, Tata AIG survey Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/healthcare-costs-top-employee-financial-worries-survey-finds/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
