Thanks, but:

Have the costs of premiums in MA started rising FASTER than the rate of national increase (in the years since 'Romneycare's passage)? Or has the rate of 'normal' increase in MA ramped up more than it was before in the years since?

Anyway... I think the article actually *did* make reference to this. Perhaps you missed it?

See:

...While the price for health plans has been kept relatively steady, treatment costs are rising as the number of insured people seeking care has increased.

Per capita health-care spending in Massachusetts has been the highest in the nation since at least 1998, according to a 2011 study in the journal Medicare & Medicaid Research Review, published by the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
