Rates must not be excessive, inadequate or unfairly discriminatory. Rates may not be changed without prior approval of the Commissioner and without thirty (30) days notice of the proposed change given to enrollees. It is therefore recommended that the proposed rate be filed as far in advance as possible to prevent unnecessary expense in the event of a rate disapproval. If the Commissioner does not disapprove the rates (schedule of charges) within thirty (30) days of their filing, they shall be deemed approved.
