Employee Health Insurance Costs to Rise
GW employees' medical insurance contributions will increase as the University changes its health insurance plan administrator in January.
Faculty and staff health insurance contributions will rise due to the University switching its health insurance plan administrator from UnitedHealthcare to Aetna at the start of 2026.
This move is expected to result in a 6.5 percent increase in employee contributions, or about $3 to $61 more per month, depending on coverage level and salary band.
Experts say this change likely curbed sharper cost increases but may disrupt care for employees whose providers fall out of network.
Summary: GW employees face rising health insurance costs.
