Anthem submitted a request to the New York Department of Financial Services (DFS) for adjustments to Small Group products and rates for 2026. We want to keep you informed about these potential changes that might affect you and your clients.
This request for annual premium rate adjustments is part of our commitment to offering high-quality healthcare services to our valued Small Group business clients. In compliance with New York State law, group administrators receive official notices regarding these proposed rate changes. You can read a sample of the notices here (upstate / downstate).
After DFS reviews and makes any necessary adjustments, we will send notifications before the next renewal period about the finalized 2026 rates.
Your role is essential in helping keep your Small Group clients well-informed about these rate changes. Please reach out to your Anthem representative with any questions.
