The study seems valid enough, but the headline does not explain the whole study. I read that employers costs have gone up faster than claims costs since 2000 because: 1. Insurer investment income is less, 2. It is part of a longer cycle. If you go to the full press release on their website it is more obvious that just the opposite happened 1995 to 2000. And I think their conclusion is it will start going the other way.
