Health costs are growing really slowly. Americans haven’t noticed.

Ask any health economist and they'll no doubt tell you that health care cost growth is slowing, growing at a low, unprecedented rate.

They can point to the National Health Expenditures report, which shows health care costs now growing at the same rate as the rest of the economy. Or, they can pull up new data out Tuesday from the Kaiser Family Foundation, showing that premiums grew 4 percent in 2013. That's way lower than growth in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
