Editorial Says Covered Calif. Rates Better Than Expected
A Sacramento Bee editorial argues that the recent release of a premium rate structure for health plans offered through Covered California, the state health insurance exchange, shows that "the market is working as intended -- actually better." According to the editorial, residents in every region of the state "will have a choice among at least three insurance companies," while competition between health plans "has brought the rates lower than expected."
