Why Health Insurance Is About To Help Drag the CPI Lower
Oct. 4, 2022, 7:45 AM
Inflation data has been surprising to the upside for several months now. But some relief could be on the way from an unlikely source. US health insurance has helped to push up the Consumer Price Index (CPI) over the past year, with the monthly sequential change in the sector running at more than 2% for several months. According to Omair Sharif, founder and president of Inflation Insights LLC, that’s about to change with readings on the cost of healthcare on course to flip negative as soon as the October reading, which comes out in November.
Measuring Price Change in the CPI: Medical care
The Labor Department bases the price of health insurance in large part on health-insurer profits, which are reported with a lag of about 10 months. Thus, data in the October 2022 CPI reflect what happened in 2021. This lag is currently amplifying big swings in medical-care spending. In 2020, lockdowns, limited healthcare capacity and consumer reluctance to seek care translated to lower healthcare spending and thus reduced benefits paid by insurers and commensurately increased net premium income. That showed up as skyrocketing health-insurance prices starting in October 2021, when the 2020 data were incorporated. This year’s updated data are based on 2021, when consumers caught up on preventive care and elective procedures, eating into insurers’ premium income, which should translate to a drop in health-insurance prices in the CPI.
CPI就是个小姑娘,任人打扮,修改Medical Care的评估方法是可以改变CPI的结果
