If you work for a larger employer, you're probably self insured and the new mandates that have been already put in place didn't impact the cost that much. Supposedly there is a long article in Time mag. about how costs at hospitals are out of control - and that has nothing to do w/Obama care.
And Johnny's said that his cost went up in 2012 $2,500 b/c of Obamacare (not what will happen in 2014).
