In the rush to pillory Anthem Blue Cross for raising their premiums for self-insured 39% (the horror), has anyone stopped to consider that the rate increase might be actuarially sound? I mean if healthy people are dumping their insurance for whatever reason, leaving a smaller pool of sicker people to cover, doesn't it stand to reason that the cost of caring for this smaller, riskier pool would go up?
I'm just sayin...
