From yesterday’s Daily Caller:

Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Carolina said in a conference call they’ll be upping the price of their individual Obamacare-compliant plans by 13.5 percent on average for 315,000 people, according to The Associated Press. Company officials emphasized that some customers will be eligible for taxpayer subsidies on the exchange.

“It is important for customers to understand their health care needs, update their information to get the subsidy amount they are eligible to receive and select an insurance plan with the level of coverage they want at a price that works for them and their family,” said Patrick Getzen, the company’s vice president and chief actuary.

Blue Cross Blue Shield in North Carolina is continuing to sell individual health care plans that aren’t compliant with Obamacare regulations as well, which is pushing the price of its Obamacare premiums up. The old, grandfathered individual policies — sold outside the exchange — will have premium hikes of 13.4 percent. The company is hiking rates on newer, Obamacare-compliant policies by 19.2 percent on average.
