I feel bad for people in other states, in Oregon it was been a pretty sweet deal for me. I moved back to Oregon from California several years ago. I was astonished at how much more expensive insurance was in OR than in CA. I've been told that Oregon has had a lot of protectionism for local health insurers, so they didn't have to compete much. So perhaps you're just seeing Oregon coming into line with other states... (By the way, I had a pinched nerve in my neck when I moved. No insurer would take me, and one told me that they wouldn't insure me until nine years had passed without any symptoms)
