Analog Devices Employees: Navigating the Rising Costs of College Tuition for Your Family

Healthcare Provider Update: Healthcare Provider for Analog Devices Analog Devices partners with multiple healthcare providers to offer benefits to their employees, generally sourcing insurance from major national insurers such as UnitedHealthcare and Cigna. These providers are notable for their extensive reach and comprehensive coverage networks. Healthcare Cost Increases in 2026 In 2026, employees at Analog Devices may face significant healthcare cost increases due to the expected surge in health insurance premiums within the Affordable Care Act (ACA) marketplace, with rates anticipated to climb sharply-some insurers may ask for increases exceeding 60%. The combination of rising medical costs, the potential expiration of enhanced federal premium subsidies, and aggressive rate hikes by major insurers could lead many enrollees to experience out-of-pocket premium increases of over 75%. This challenging scenario underscores the importance for Analog Devices employees to evaluate their health coverage options early and make informed decisions as they navigate this volatile landscape.

It doesn’t take a degree in finance to see the cost of college continues to rise.

In its 2017 report, the College Board showed that public four-year institutions raised prices an average of 3.2% annually between the 2007-08 and 2017-18 school years. Put another way, a $5,000 education in 2007-08 would cost $6,851 in 2017-18.

For a few families, the lion’s share of education costs falls on parents and, in some cases, on grandparents. For our Analog Devices clients who are parents you may already know, generally, the majority of families rely on a combination of scholarships, grants, financial aid, part-time jobs, and parent support to help pay the cost.

For Analog Devices employees who have children approaching college age, a good first step is estimating the potential costs. The accompanying worksheet can help you get a better idea about the cost of a four-year college.

For Analog Devices employees who already put money away for college, the worksheet will take that amount into consideration. For Analog Devices employees who haven’t, it’s never too late to start.
