In plain English: The approval shown here (+8.3%) is higher than the original request shown (+0.3%). These numbers came from separate state files; check the official source records below for context.
What this means
California has allowed an average +8.3% change for the policies covered by this filing. Customers can still see different changes because insurers price each policy individually.
Some details are still being checked against the state’s records. We leave uncertain values blank instead of estimating them.
