Georgia consumers and businesses will get an estimated $30 million in rebates from health insurers who spent more on overhead and profits than allowed under the federal health care law, according to an analysis from the non-profit Kaiser Family Foundation. The typical rebates won't be huge. The average pay-out will be $35.12 for about 110,000 Georgians who buy their own health plans from insurers who exceeded the law's limits, the report found. Refunds will also be going to some businesses in the small and large group markets. Rebates in Georgia are less than the national average, in part because Georgia insurers were given more time to comply with the requirements of the law.
