All the top-rated Massachusetts plans are non-profits. And just a bit of inside baseball: If you look at the complete list here, you'll see that Harvard Pilgrim edged out Tufts for the top spot by just a hair: an overall ranking of 90.5 vs. 90.4. Last year's scores followed a similar pattern, and the two plans have been neck-and-neck at the top for five years now. Readers, what do you think is up?
