Health Insurance Is a premium increase of 23% now typical?

[Healthyman]

I have a policy (Company Care Plus) with LAYA due soon for renewal.
The premium will increase by 23%.
I thought I read in the press recently about increases in the 5-10% region.
Am I being very naïve and is 23% now typical?

5-10% may be an average but there have definitely been much higher increases on some policies. E.g.:

Health Insurance - Laya Simplicity increase 25% renewal 1st November, how is this so?

Just got the renewal and its 25% now 4402 for 2 in our 70's. How can this be justified? would a company policy similar be cheaper and how can I get it? I know i am not alone but had to ask?

It seems to be mainly those Laya policies which have no excess or shortfall for specified orthopaedic procedures that have this level of increase in cost. All the above plans do, I believe, and my Simply Connect Plus increased by 25% last December.
