Some CareFirst policyholders might get refunds

CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield customers who saw their monthly premiums rise when they turned 50 years old may get a promised refund that is being negotiated between the health insurance carrier and the Maryland Insurance Administration, a state official said Wednesday.

“We will most likely enter a consent agreement with them that will indicate the terms of a refund,” said Karen Barrows, a spokeswoman for the state administration.
