The Alternative Insurance Plan FPO increase for 2010 is based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for Medical Care (CPI-M). The CPI for Medical Care measures costs associated with technology, lifesaving medical equipment, complex procedures performed by specialists, prescription drugs, and malpractice insurance premiums. The increase this year (which is based on increases to the CPI-M for the past two years) is 6.68%.
