Here is some info on premium increases.

National Trends in the Cost of Employer Health Insurance Coverage, 2003?2013 - The Commonwealth Fund

This one shows that on average from 2003-2010 when Obamacare was passed the average policy went up in price 5.1% per year and the average deductible went up 10.2%. Since Obamacare the annual increase is 4.1% per year and 7.5% deductible increase per year.

This link has a ton of info. In one area it says from 2004-2006 the average family premium went up 8.8% per year.

The reality is that premiums and deductibles have been on the rise for a decade.
