’10 Premium Hikes Among Top Health Plans

Here’s a good chart from the Deutsche Bank Health Insurance Market Survey (see prior post) showing projected 2010 premium rate increases among top health plans — ranging from 7.2% for fully insured business at Kaiser to 17.4% for fully insured business at Aetna.  These are after benefit buydowns averaging 350 basis points.  Note the projected increase among not-for-profit Blues at 11.1% should bode well for the competition.  The survey is based on responses from 240 employers covering nearly 600,000 lives.
