A new study commissioned by the Kaiser Family Foundation notes that an increasing number of Americans are deciding to tie the knot so that they can receive health benefits from their spouse. According to the L.A. Times, 7% of Americans reported that someone in their household got married for insurance reasons. These individuals tend to be younger than 35, and most have incomes of less than $50,000 per year.

The study also showed that in general, Americans are very concerned about health care costs. Families are more stressed about paying for health care than housing costs, food costs, or consumer debt. These Americans also believe that addressing the issue of health care costs should take precedence over expanding coverage to the uninsured.
