The department’spreliminaryanalysis of the proposedplans for the individual marketreveal that insurers expectthe cost to cover healthcare expenses for consumerswill significantly increase.Based on a report releasedby the Society of Actuariesearlier this year, the departmentestimates this increaseis an average of 88 percent.While those costs do notspecifically track with thepremiums insurers chargeindividual customers, it isexpected that these increasesin costs also will translate tosignificant premium increasesfor many Ohioans.A total of 14 companiesfiled proposed rates for 214different plans to the Department.Projected costs from thecompanies for providingcoverage for the required essentialhealth benefitsranged from $282.51 to$577.40 for individualhealth insurance plans.“We have warned of theseincreases since a state-specificstudy in 2011 indicatedOhio would be significantlyimpacted by the ACA,”Lieutenant Governor MaryTaylor said. “The department’sinitial analysis of theproposed rates show consumerswill have fewerchoices and pay much higherpremiums for their health insurancestarting in 2014.”Estimates from a Societyof Actuaries study releasedin 2013 showed Ohio’s currentaverage cost to covermedical expenses for an individualhealth insuranceplan is $223. Based on theproposals submitted to theDepartment, the average tocover those costs in 2014 is$420 representing an increaseof 88 percent whencompared to the Society ofActuaries study.The proposed rates are noteffective and are currentlyundergoing the department’sreview process. During thisprocess, rates may changebefore becoming effective.The department releasedthe information recently tohelp health insurance consumerscontinue to preparefor the expected price increases.Specific premiuminformation varies widelyand can be unique to each individualor employer, but itis hoped that the informationon proposed costs and ratesSTUMP’SPROFESSIONAL PAINTING, LLCInterior - Exterior419-833-6205 or 419-410-4417CALL NOW FOR AN EXTERIOR QUOTECOME VISIT US ATWWW.STUMPSPAINTING.COMKRUSE CONSTRUCTIONHome Remodelingcan help consumers andhealth insurance consultantsdetermine how their particularsituations will be impacted.In 2010, the federal PatientProtection and AffordableCare Act (ACA), whichincludes sweeping changesto America’s health insurancesystem, became law.

Based upona few sites in Lucas County,and conversations with otherat the Ohio Department ofAgriculture, numbers look tobe on the rise.Some attribute thisgrowth to the natural, butsomewhat unpredictablecycle. Others believe that lastyear’s dry summer, and theabsence of the gypsy mothfungus, are both factors intothe cause of these high numbers.OSU Extension in LucasCounty would like assistancein determining the whereaboutsof gypsy moth in thecounty, and population levels.This information is keyin managing for the pest forthe remainder of this year’sseason, and more importantlyto determine a plan for actionin 2014.Gypsy moth caterpillarsare hairy and have pairs ofred and blue dots down theirbacks. They feed on morethan 500 different plants, butoaks are a favorite. Theydon’t create any type of nestor webbing while feeding inthe trees. High numbers ofcaterpillars can eat every singleleaf from even the mostmature trees.Gypsy moth populationscan be reported in three waysto assist in the assessment forthe county.Residents can call theOSU’s Horticulture Hotlineat 419-578-6783.Hotline hours are Monday,Wednesday, and Fridayfrom 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.Samples also can bedropped off at the office duringhotline hours, or placedin the white sample box nearthe deck after hours.The office is located at5526 West Bancroft, betweenHolland-Sylvania andReynolds, just east ofHawkins Elementary School.Or residents can email informationabout gypsy mothto Amy Stone atstone.91@osu.edu.Residential • Commercial Installation & RepairGeothermal•Furnaces•Boilers•Water Heaters •AirConditioning•Reverse Osmosis SystemsLicensed Insured BBB member419-874-9499Fax: 419-874-7990E: ultraheatcoolinc@aol.comNumber 2 CrewPet waste removal.
