I really need you all to understand that when I say "prepare" I do not mean for the next 4 years. I mean for the next 40. If you are over 40. You will likely not live to see the rights you have come to take for granted again in your lifetime.

Louisiana: Preliminary avg. unsubsidized 2025 #ACA rate changes: -3.0% (unweighted)
1 1
Originally posted 8/09/23; updated 11/07/23 Louisiana's rate filing database is frustrating, because it's both highly-detailed and confusing at the same time. They break out the filings not between Individual and small group markets or on- vs. off-exchange policies, but between rate increases...

The Missouri Insurance Dept. has posted their preliminary 2025 single risk pool filings for the individual and small group markets. Not a whole lot stands out to me other than SSM Health Insurance apparently dropping out of the states indy market and a new carrier, Bankers Reserve Life...

Kentucky: Preliminary avg. unsubsidized 2025 #ACA rate changes: +8.5% (weighted)

I'm pleasantly surprised to report that after several years of Kentucky's rate filings being heavily redacted, this year at least (and hopefully going forward), I was able to acquire the actual enrollment data for all of them...not just the individual market, but the small group market as well!...

Nebraska: Preliminary unsubsidized avg. 2025 #ACA rate changes: +4.0% (unweighted)

Nebraska doesn't even bother listing indy/small group plan rate filings on their own insurance department website...the link goes directly to the federal Rate Review database. The problem with this is that very few filings here are unredacted, which means it's difficult to acquire the policy...

Mississippi: Preliminary avg. unsubsidized 2025 #ACA rate changes: +1.8% (unweighted)

Unfortunately, Mississippi is another state which provides zero useful rate filing data for my purposes (preliminary or final) prior to the Open Enrollment Period launching. The only data I have is from the federal Rate Review website, and even the filing forms there are heavily redacted, so all...

Montana: Preliminary avg. unsubsidized 2025 #ACA rate changes: +8.3%

Montana used to be very good about providing rate filings in a clear, upfront, transparent manner. That is no longer the case. Their insurance department website hasn't updated the rate filings page for two years. The good news is that this year at least, the SERFF database has both the average...
