[quote=Anonymous]The inflation is high despite the government's efforts to hide it. They have changed the measurement of inflation. First switching to annual changes in basket of goods. Now they are calculating health insurance premiums differently. Oct 2023 had health insurance premiums weighed into inflation calculation as -34%. Did premiums drop by one third from a year ago? The change in calculation is they are now calculatiing this as not premiums paid, but premiums paid - benefit payouts. 10000 in premiums 9000 paid out, vs 10000 in premiums 9300 paid out, is now a 30% reduction in payments. I know insurance companies do not make a lot in profits, but it seems there is not much room for payouts to become a larger share of premiums.[/quote]
