Health insurers want to boost premiums for people and small businesses that are buying policies under the Affordable Care Act in 2024. But insurers are asking for lower increases than they sought in 2023. The Pennsylvania Department of Insurance says they’re asking for an average hike of four-point-two-percent for individual policies and four-point-one-percent for small-group policies, according to the Pennsylvania Department of Insurance. State regulators are taking public comment on the proposed premium adjustments until September 8th.
