W2 error ???

I noticed that on the 2023 W2, section 12b DD shows an amount of 38627.52 compared to 2022 which showed 12b DD as 6471 and 2021 as 4775.  

 

The 2023 wages were under 60K so I am pretty confident that 2b DD for 2023 is wrong when compared to prior years.

 

Am I correct ? How should i present this back to the payroll department so they understand?

NOTE:  Last year the same employer messed up the W2 and they sent out a revised W2 THREE times but only after complaining about inconsistencies.

The amount listed for code DD in box 12 is the total cost of your medical insurance, including the amount that you paid and the amount that the employer paid. It is just for your information. It does not affect your tax return. So just enter it as it appears on your W-2. If you want an explanation of the large increase, you have to ask the payroll department.
