(spirit.com) Healthcare Cost Increases in 2026 Looking ahead to 2026, healthcare costs are expected to rise sharply, with some states seeing premium increases exceeding 60% due to the potential expiration of enhanced ACA subsidies and rising medical costs. For employers like Spirit Airlines, this may translate to higher premiums for both the company and employees. Employees could face larger out-of-pocket expenses, making it increasingly important to maximize in-network care, leverage HSAs, and plan healthcare usage strategically in 2025 to mitigate the impact of next years cost increases.

As an employee of Spirit Airlines you may find it interesting to know, one landmark study found that credit-based insurance scores are used by about 95 percent of all auto and home insurers in calculating the cost of insurance to individuals.

While the vast majority of insurance companies use credit-based insurance scores to help determine the price of insurance, it is banned in the states of Massachusetts, Hawaii, and California. Some states only allow it as a factor for property insurance like auto and homeowners insurance. Other states allow it to be used with any type of insurance.

Several Factors

Generally, an insurance company will use a credit-based insurance score as just one factor in its underwriting process. We'd also like to remind our Spirit Airlines clients that other factors may be considered, depending on the type of insurance. For example, with auto insurance, other factors could include your zip code, the age of the drivers, the make, model and age of the car, and the number of miles you drive annually.

The use of credit scores to determine insurance rates is rooted in research that has shown individuals with lower credit scores had higher car insurance losses and higher claims payouts.

You can ask your insurance company if a credit-based insurance score was used to underwrite and rate your policy, and in which risk category you were placed.

For Spirit Airlines employees who want to improve their credit-based insurance score, you should consider taking the same steps you would to improve your credit rating: make timely debt payments, clear up past disputes and keep credit card balances low.
