In a year when the nation's attention is firmly focused on healthcare and its costs, Delaware Insurance Commissioner Trinidad Navarro has announced another reduction in rates on the Delaware Health Insurance Marketplace.
Despite insurer costs related to COVID-19 testing and treatment, Navarro negotiated an average decrease of 1 percent in health insurance rates. Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield Delaware, which offers the state's Affordable Care Act health plans, initially submitted a reduction of 0.5 percent. The commissioner's final rate announcement comes after an independent actuarial review and public comments on the insurer's proposal.
