Alabama has the highest average in-network denial rate for ACA insurers, while South Dakota has the lowest, according to KFF.

KFF analyzed CMS data on claims denials and appeals for non-group qualified health plans offered on the federal exchange in 2023. Denial rates at the individual insurer-level had high variability in some states. Insurers ranked by ACA claim denial rates are here.

States ranked by average ACA claim denial rates:

Alabama: 34%

Oklahoma: 29%

Alaska: 25%

Hawaii: 24%

Indiana: 23%

 
Alabama ranking does not surprise me when you consider that BCBS of Alabama has about a 95% market share.
