One doctor's study shows a disturbing trend: those under 65 are waiting for Medicare enrollment to seek treatment for potentially deadly conditions.

NEITHER!
The insurance company needs to remain profitable AND competitive, so the premium rates will be adjusted downward or upward as needed to meet their goals.
…and don't let those liars tempt you into accepting Community Rating, either! That's just like asking insurance company actuaries to don blindfolds and fling throwing knives at their pretty assistants!
