The Oregon Insurance Division will be giving consumers in the state access to all of the data that regulators receive when evaluating rate change requests.
The division has started posting insurers' health rate filings on the Web and giving members of the public a chance to post comments.
The Oregon division reviews rates for individual policies, plans for employers with 2 to 50 employees, and portability plans.
The rate filings, which might be of interest to employers, brokers and insurance company marketing executives as well as to consumers, give information about what insurers spend on salaries, broker commissions, marketing and advertising, and other administrative expenses, officials say.
