The Green Mountain Care Board is holding its annual rate hike Public Comment Forum this Thursday, July 25, at 4 P.M. — virtually via Microsoft Teams. On top of 60%-80% increases in the past six years, these insurers are requesting increases of 16.3% (BCBS) and 12.6% (MVP).
Any member of the public is welcome to participate. It is especially important for people who are affected by these increases to make their voices heard. This includes anyone who buys a BCBS or MVP plan through Vermont Health Connect--or who is uninsured because they can't afford one of these plans and don't qualify for Medicaid.
