Obamacare does not have a specific percentage that employers and workers have to pay. However, an employee cannot pay more than 9.5 percent of his income to join the employer's plan and cover himself. (The amount he pays for family coverage can be higher than 9.5 percent of his income or his household income.)

Is your employer allowed to bill your health insurance for their mandatory drug test?
Yes, they can. Under federal law, an employer can require you to pay for the mandatory drug test. As long as having the employee pay does not have the effect of discouraging minority job applicants or lowering the employee's wage below the federal minimum, the employer can charge you for the test. Billing your health insurance is a form of billing you, even if your health insurance is from your employer.

Is anything really ever free? In most cases health insurance coverage under ObamaCare will require some level of premium contribution. When purchased through an employer the employee contribution can be no higher than 9.5% of family income for that employee. Dependent coverage may cost more. When purchased through a state exhcange as an individual subsidies help lower the premium costs, but they never reach zero. Families qualifying for Medicaid receive coverage at no premium costs. In states that expanded Medicaid there may be asset recovery at time of death.
