CalPERS Board Approves 2015 Premium Rates
The CalPERS board has approved new rates for 2015 that will result in about 40% of CalPERS policyholders paying lower premiums, but rates will increase for hundreds of thousands of other members. For example, premiums for Blue Shield of California HMO members will jump by 9.6% to 16.4%, while premiums for Kaiser Permanente HMO members will decline by 4.3%.
