Here is some great information provided by CNCB on health insurance from the show On the Money.

• 48 million Americans under the age of 65 lack health insurance.
• 1/3 of Americans spend part of year 2007 without health insurance.
• The last decade for premium employer sponsored health insurance rose 4x times as fast as our income.

Just as a side note, there is a company that does health insurance rating, the company is called A.M. Best. Check out the A.M. Best website if you are looking for health insurance ratings.
