WASHINGTON - Consumers will have more health insurance choices next year under the Obama-era health care law and premiums will dip slightly for many customers, the Trump administration announced Tuesday. An additional 20 insurers will participate for 2020, expanding consumer choice in many states, officials said. Premiums for a hypothetical 27-year-old choosing a standard plan will decline 4% on average next year in states served by the federal HealthCare.gov website, the Trump administration said. A low-cost midrange plan for that hypothetical 27-year-old will charge monthly premiums of $374 next year, officials said. The Trump administration also disclosed that it had made some “minor” changes in how it reports data about the program.
