Once again, HHS Secretary Shecantbeserious has proven herself to be quite fangless in her efforts to cajole insurers into artificially suppressing rates:
"[Connecticut]'s largest insurer has been approved to raise health premium rates by 41 percent to 47 percent for some of its policies sold to individual buyers..."
The good news is that the bulk of Anthem's business in the state will experience only a "modest" 19% increase.
Oh frabjous day!
In utter disregard of the Federales, the carrier had the temerity to claim that the "reason for the increases is the new federal health reform mandates." [emphasis added]
Oh wait, did I say "the carrier?"
I meant "the Connecticut Department of Insurance."
I wonder if Ms Shecantbeserious will now threaten them.
