Health Insurance Premiums Set to Surge Again | Wichita News
Description
Health insurance premiums on the Affordable Care Act Marketplace are set to jump 14% on average next year — a painful climb after last year’s 18% surge. Seventy-seven insurers across 16 states and D.C. are asking for hikes, mostly between 10–20%, with none proposing cuts. The spike? Blame expired subsidies (gone for those earning over $63K), rising healthcare costs, and federal rule changes. As healthier enrollees left, sicker ones stayed — driving up everyone’s tab. Enrollment’s already down 2.5 million since last year. Brace yourself.
