Pennsylvania ACA Marketplace Proposes Nearly 19% Health Insurance Premium Increase for 2026
Health insurers participating in Pennsylvania's ACA marketplace, Pennie, have submitted proposals for premium increases averaging nearly 19% for individual plans in 2026. The Pennsylvania Insurance Department plans to review these rate hike requests this fall and encourages public comments to aid in assessing their fairness. Potentially significant premium increases could result if federal enhanced tax credits expire as scheduled this year without Congressional renewal.
