Insurance Commissioner Glen Mulready announced  the 2021 preliminary rate filings for health insurance plans under the Affordable Care Act (ACA).

Insurers that offer coverage through the Oklahoma Marketplace filed plans requesting average statewide increases of 2.7 percent.

The same three insurers that offered individual health plans on the 2020 Exchange will return for 2021 — Blue Cross Shield of Oklahoma, Bright Health and Medica Insurance Company. In addition, Oscar Health, United HealthCare and Community Care Oklahoma will join the marketplace in Oklahoma for 2021 allowing consumers to have more choices. BCBSOK and Medica offer statewide plans while Bright Health, CCOK, Oscar and UHC serve limited areas of the state.
