Because so many employers participated in Mercer's National Survey of Employer-Sponsored Health Plans, the survey unit can produce custom data reports comparing the results by select industry, region, employer size and state data.

This powerful benchmarking report lets you compare your program cost and design features with meaningful norms, generally based on employer size, region, and industry group. For example, a benchmark report might show key results for:

• High Tech participants
• Northeast 500+ employees
• Employers with 5,000 or more employees nationwide
• Manufacturing 500+ employers.

While the survey tables provide results for eight large industry categories, respondents in the database may be sorted into over 40 sub-industry groups for more precise benchmarking. For example, we can provide results for:

• Pharmaceutical manufacturers
• Software/data processing
• Colleges and universities
• Entertainment/recreation
• Banks
• Real estate
• . . . and many more!
