honestly, i think i'd be stoked if i were to get solid coverage from a major carrier for $1000/month- then i could bitch about the price going up annually!
I think you are assuming too much. You are linking a law with individual companies in a way that doesn't really work. Just because the law says XYZ, doesn't mean Company ABC has to help you achieve that law, unless the law says Company ABC has to do that.

I have not heard of any premium ceilings being in the law, but I haven't been paying too much attention either.
