MAKING HEALTH CARE AFFORDABLE

Cracking down on excessive rate hikes

OSPIRG Health Care Advocate Laura Etherton helped lead efforts to require Oregon health insurers to meet tougher standards to prove premium increases are justified. Since those new rules went into effect in 2010, the state stepped up its scrutiny, scaling back dozens of proposed rate hikes and saving consumers over $37 million.
