Like this one,

"NAIC does estimate that most large and small group health plans will meet the new requirement, thanks to PPACA’s exclusion of state and federal taxes from non-medical costs (and implicitly assuming that the impact on MLRs of the currently uninsured will not be significant). In other words, most group plans are likely to be unaffected—and if AHIP is at all successful, may even be tempted to increase their profit percentages while boasting compliance with the PPACA limits."

NAIC doesn't seem to believe it will be much of a problem.

The healthcare industry is laughing all the way to the bank.
