About Benchmarks
There must be enough plans with sufficient claims in the same reporting period to produce a credible comparison and useful benchmark. For industry benchmarks, if there are not enough plans with claims available, the actual industry used to create a benchmark may vary. Additionally, all benchmarks will be made against information available during the requested reporting period. Benchmarks include information from all plans with data available during the requested reporting period.
