same for Medicare
rates are determined by community and are age-banded, I believe. Perhaps the reason Florida is more expensive (my rates were higher than Ohio also, but not close to 50% plus) is that there are lots of retirees in Florida under 65, and also that Florida did not do the expanded Medicaid.
Now that I'm about to go on Medicare, I also found that the same applies - more expensive if I am a Florida resident for same plan.
Have a good friend who sells Medicare policies in Ohio. She says Florida medical fraud is among highest in nation and that also affects premiums.
