I took my company's second to lowest tier of insurance (there are 4 options) and my premium is $215.00 per 2 week pay period for my wife and I (it would be ~$95.00 for just me). My company also stopped providing this health bonus rebate last year. It used to give me like a 50 dollar rebate each pay period because my wife and I have normal blood pressure, glucose, cholesterol rates etc. I can only imagine the premium is going to continue to rise over time.
And it would have been even worse if we went with my wife's company's plan (something to the tune of $400.00 per 2 week pay period.)
If I only had to pay $70.00 per pay period for the two of us, I'd be weary of Medicare for All as well.
Some employers pay a larger portion of your premium than others depending on what they are willing to pay.
