I see big increases every year, not sure how much is inflation vs. age-adjustments. I do expect older people will pay more since we all consume more healthcare as we age. It’s a time consuming process to analyze every year and I haven’t messed around by changing age to see what happens with rates. To do that, I believe you need to start the entire pricing process from the start. I don’t think you can just change an age variable while looking at pricing. If I see I can when I get into research, I’ll give it a shot and see how much pricing changes.
Thanks. Legitimately curious, as my in-laws live out of the country. My wife and I have considered sponsoring them to come live in the USA, but haven't been able to figure out a reasonable cost option for health care, since they won't qualify for medicare.
