Ambetter proposes a $479 average monthly premium, a 0.5 percent decrease from this year. Its coverage prices would decline by as much as 15.2 percent for a gold plan sold in a cluster of five central and southwest Indiana counties and increase by as much as 5.4 percent for a silver plan sold in six counties in central Indiana that include much of the Indianapolis metropolitan area.

Ambetter, which currently has 65,000 Hoosiers enrolled in its marketplace plans, will expand coverage from 43 counties this year to all 92 Indiana counties next year
