Oklahoma has three carriers on the Individual Market these days. Once again, all three rate filing memos are redacted, but I was able to dig up the number of current policy holders for one of them (CommunityCare HMO).
I've bumped that number up a bit to account for the total number of covered lives to an even 2,000. For the other two carriers, I'm assuming Blue Cross Blue Shield still holds the lion's share of enrollees and that the total on+off-exchange market is around 187,000 people.
If this is all correct, the weighted average rate increase for unsubsidized enrollees is around 1.4% statewide.
Meanwhile, the unweighted average rate hike for the small group market is 6.5%.
