Indiana is getting a $1 million federal grant to improve its monitoring of health insurance premiums and develop an Internet
site to help consumers.
The grant awarded by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is part of the federal health care overhaul.
The agency says Indiana will use the money to hire actuaries to help it review proposed premium increases. It also will look
at best practices in other states to identify areas where it can strengthen the state's health insurance laws and rules.
Indiana also will develop a Web site where consumers can review rate filings and post comments. Filings currently are only
available upon request.
