And Vermont Makes Three

Just in time for the year’s first renewal notices, Medical Mutual recently announced that the Company’s rates for both physician and hospitals in Vermont would remain unchanged for the coming year. The announcement was made in a letter from Company President and CEO, Terrance Sheehan, MD, to all Vermont policyholders on October 5, 2007.

Sheehan said, “I have always believed that Vermont’s claims activity would level off, allowing (members there) to experience the same kind of rate stabilization that has already occurred in our other two states. Thankfully, that day has arrived in time to impact your renewal rates for the upcoming year.”

The announcement came on the heels of the Company’s completed rate evaluation for Vermont. With this latest rate announcement, all three states Medical Mutual serves will now see flat rates for the current policy year.
