The same insurers from 2023 will remain in the market to provide coverage options: Capital Blue Cross, Cigna, Geisinger, Highmark, IBX, Oscar, Ambetter, and UPMC. Highmark plans to expand into Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery, and Philadelphia Counties. Geisinger plans to expand into Bedford County. Public comment on rate requests and filings will be accepted through Sept. 8, 2023, and can be emailed to ra***********@**.gov.
