California Governor Gavin Newsom signed AB 2118 (Kalra), which requires rate reporting in individual & small-group health insurance markets, similar to requirements in the large group market. “Collecting this rate reporting data would give policymakers and advocates more insight into the types of coverage Californians have, trends in premiums, and how to improve our health system as a whole, particularly as more people change their coverage during this pandemic,” said Anthony Wright, executive director of Health Access California.
Earlier this year, the Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development established a Health Care Cost Transparency Database to collect and streamline information about health care costs, quality, and equity from available data sources.
