Most health insurance carriers require an employer to pay at least 50% of the employee premium. Average group health insurance premiums in Atlanta, GA are around $450 per month so in my area the answer would be roughly $225 per month at a minimum.

It depends. Employers are not required to make a mandatory percentage towards coverage althrough it is customary for employers to cover at least 50%. However there are some other factors to consider as well;
1) Depending on how an employer values an employee the contribution can be as high as 100% of employer sponsored coverage
2) Sometimes employers cover the majority of the premium in lieu of extending raises or bonuses.
3) THere are times when its a lot less than 50% due to the fact that the employer is trying to extend benefits to their employees on a wide scale and financially its not prudent to offer a high percentage of employer contribution.
4) Many companies have a waiting period for new employees to join (30 days or 90 days probation) to see if a new employee will work out prior to expending money to cover benefits.
Single coverage is always less expensive than family coverage. There is also a distinction between married adults and married adults with children.
