1 OHA exists to collaborate with member hospitals and health systems to ensure a healthy Ohio. February 2016 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ENROLLMENT GROWS YET MARGINS DROP FOR OHIO S HEALTH INSURING CORPORATIONS In 2014, the number of Ohioans insured through Health Insuring Corporations grew by 10.4 percent to 6,708,381 people, fueled mostly by increased Medicaid managed care enrollment. Premium revenue also grew 10.7 percent over the previous year, although profitability declined 59 percent. Ohio expanded Medicaid to individuals earning up to 138 percent of the poverty level, which resulted in new Medicaid enrollees fueling most, if not all, of the growth in the HIC industry. This report focuses on the 25 HICs licensed in Ohio to provide coverage for basic health care services: physician services, inpatient hospital services, outpatient medical services, emergency health services, urgent care services, diagnostic laboratory services, diagnostic and therapeutic radiologic services, diagnostic and treatment services for biologically based mental illnesses, and preventive health care services. The data used to produce this analysis are collected from the Ohio Department of Insurance and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. HICs, also referred to as Health Maintenance Organizations, provided health insurance coverage for 58 percent of Ohio s 11.6 million residents in More than 970,000 Ohioans remained uninsured in Health insurance coverage and the distribution of coverage types reflect economic and societal trends: shifts in the demographic composition of the population and policy changes that impact access to care. As economic conditions improve, commercial and employer sponsored plans generally show increases in enrollment. However, several policy changes adopted with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act went into effect in 2014 and impacted those assumptions. The ACA created growth in the areas of Medicaid expansion and the health insurance marketplace. In Ohio, 12 insurance providers offered Qualified Health Plans in In 2014, Medicaid HICs experienced a 54 percent growth in premiums and a 42 percent growth in enrollment. Despite revenue growth, median total margin for HICs declined from 3.3 percent in 2013 to 1.4 percent in the health insurance marketplace. The open enrollment period in 2014 resulted in 188,867 covered lives in the new marketplace. Many individuals buying coverage on their own had higher health care costs than others with existing coverage. Individuals with pre-existing conditions who did not have employer-sponsored coverage were able to purchase coverage for the first time. Ohio Health Insuring Corporations Report 1

2 THE NUMBERS FOR 2014: MEDICAID'S IMPACT Each year the Ohio Hospital Association reviews financial statements filed with the Ohio Department of Insurance by Health Insuring Corporations to assess trends and to monitor financial performance in the industry. This year s report yields the following findings: 6.7 million Ohioans are enrolled in a HIC, 58% of all Ohioans There are 25 licensed plans, although three (AmeriGroup, Gateway and WellCare) seem to be winding down business due to discontinued Medicaid contracts. Medicaid business represented 36% of all enrollment, up from 28% in 2013, a 29% increase. $26.5 billion in premiums were paid to HICs in Medicaid plans were more profitable than commercial plans in 2014 (2.1% versus 1.4% median total margin). Aggregate net income for Ohio HICs in 2014 was $681,266,114. Medicaid plans accounted for 36% of those profits, $248,940,149 Premiums for HICs increased 17.2% in Aggregate underwriting margin was 3.2%, down from 4.2 in In addition to the 25 licensed HICs, a number of health plans operating in Ohio are licensed as property and casualty companies: Community Insurance Co., Medical Mutual of Ohio, Anthem Insurance Companies, Inc., and Medical Health Insuring Corporation of Ohio are among the larger insurers (note that some also hold HIC licenses) offering Preferred Provider Organizations and other types of indemnity insurance in their portfolios. Combined, these four plans enroll another 3 million plus Ohioans. COMPANY 2014 PREMIUMS $ Community Insurance Co. 5,221,589,105 Medical Mutual of Ohio 2,219,340,418 Anthem Insurance Companies, Inc.

3 THE NUMBERS FOR 2014: ENROLLMENT UP, MARGINS DOWN ENROLLMENT As in prior years with high rates of growth, most of the 2014 increase in enrollment can be attributed to increased numbers of Ohioans covered by Medicaid plans. The Health Care Expense Ratio is a key financial measure that shows the percentage of premium dollars a health insurer pays for medical care and quality improvement expenses, as opposed to the portion allocated to overhead in the form of profits, administrative costs, and sales expenses. HCER is calculated using the formula: Total Medical and Hospital Expenses Total Revenue The median Health Care Expense ratio in 2014 was 84 percent. INDUSTRY FINANCIALS This report includes two measures of HIC profitability, net underwriting gain (or loss), and total margin. Net underwriting gain is calculated using the formula: Incurred Losses + Loss Adjustment Expense Earned Premiums The underwriting gain for Ohio HICs in 2014 was $855.2 million on premiums of $26.5 billion, for an aggregate 3.2 percent margin, down one percentage point from The median was 0.5 percent, down from 2.9 percent in It is worth noting that plans reporting these extreme values were also undergoing significant transitions, either exiting major segments of the market or in the middle of merger or acquisition. The Administrative Expense Ratio (AER) is the percent of revenue spent on overhead, salaries, commissions, marketing and other non-health services. It is calculated using the formula: Total Administrative Expenses Total Revenue Total margin is calculated using the formula: Net Income Total Revenue Ohio HICs reported total gains of $681.3 million in 2014, representing an aggregate total margin of 2.5 percent. The median total margin was 1.4 percent with a number of plans expressing extreme values due to major business transitions. Please refer to the index for plan-specific data. The Administrative Expense Ratio is the percent of revenue spent on overhead, salaries, commissions, marketing and other non-health services.

4 THE NUMBERS FOR 2014: PLANS FOR SPECIAL POPULATIONS SPECIAL MARKET SEGMENTS Medicaid Managed Care Since the 1990s, Ohio Medicaid has contracted with selected HICs, referred to as Managed Care Plans, or MCPs, to arrange health care services for certain covered members. The plans provide all services offered through traditional Medicaid and may add additional services. Providers contract with and bill Medicaid MCPs directly. In 2014, Medicaid MCPs covered 2,444,816 lives. Most MCP members qualify for coverage in the Covered Families and Children eligibility category. However, recent state law requires that most non-institutionalized individuals in the Aged, Blind, and Disabled eligibility category enroll in Medicaid MCPs. Ohio selected five plans to manage the full spectrum of Medicaid and Medicare benefits for dually eligible Medicaid beneficiaries: Aetna Better Health, Inc. Buckeye Community Health Plan, Inc. CareSource Molina Healthcare of Ohio, Inc. UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of Ohio, Inc. Over the years, revenues have increased significantly for MCPs operating in Ohio, to $11.2 billion in Net income and operating margins have also increased. In 2014, MCPs earned $255.5 million on premiums of $11.2 billion. In addition, the Ohio Department of Medicaid initiated MyCare Ohio, a three-year demonstration project, that uses MCPs to coordinate benefits for residents covered by Medicare and Medicaid. All Ohioans eligible for Medicaid due to new categories created under the ACA are enrolled in MCPs. MCPs function differently from commercial managed care programs. Rates are often tied to already inadequate fee-for-service Medicaid payments, and hospitals are not permitted to recover costs from Medicaid MCP enrollees. The state generally has the upper hand in determinations of network adequacy.

CareSource Molina Healthcare of Ohio, Inc. Paramount Advantage UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of Ohio, Inc. Individuals who are dually eligible for Medicare and Medicaid and who live in certain regions of the state are also eligible for the MyCare Ohio demonstration program. MyCare Ohio is an integrated care delivery system of managed care plans selected to coordinate physical, behavioral, and long-term care services for individuals over the age of 18 who are eligible for both Medicaid and Medicare. This includes people with disabilities, older adults, and individuals who receive behavioral health services. Medicare Advantage Medicare Advantage Plans are a form of plan offered by private companies that contract with Medicare to provide Medicare Part A and Part B benefits. Services are covered through the plan and are not paid under original Medicare. Most MA plans offer prescription drug coverage. In 2014, 39 MA plans reported combined enrollment of 821,631; of that number, 48 percent, or 395,985, including Ohio Health Insuring Corporations Report 4

5 THE NUMBERS FOR 2014 (CONTINUED) those participating in the MyCare Ohio demonstration were in HICs. The number of Medicare beneficiaries in MA plans grew 6 percent between 2013 and 2014; enrollment in Medicare Advantage HICs grew by 20 percent. MA plans operate in a different environment from commercial HICs. CMS tightly controls the manner in which MA plans market and enroll eligible individuals. Only a handful of HICs operate exclusively as MA plans: Mount Carmel Health Plan, Inc. and Mount Carmel Health Insuring Company, Paramount Health Care, and SummaCare, Inc. The majority of MA enrollees are in HICs that offer MA as one of several lines of business. MARKET DRIVERS AND STAKEHOLDERS EMPLOYER SPONSORED PLANS REMAIN LARGEST CUSTOMER SEGMENT The health insurance industry is experiencing unprecedented regulatory, financial and competitive disruption. Traditional employer group business is changing, government sponsorship of health coverage is expanding, and new opportunities for growth in exchanges and marketplaces are emerging. Collaboration between health plans and providers to drive value-based care and better health outcomes is creating additional opportunities to increase market share and improve patient outcomes and experiences. Employer-sponsored plans continue to be the majority of health insuring corporations book of business, despite the alternatives offered by the ACA. Most employers who offered health insurance prior to the ACA continue to provide their employees with insurance, often pushing for higher-quality, lower-cost coverage. Medicare Advantage enrollment will continue to increase market penetration as a percent of total Medicare beneficiaries. This will occur as the Baby Boomer generation ages and providers and health plans continue to push for lower costs and higher quality. HEALTH INSURANCE EXCHANGES Starting in 2014, individuals with employers that do not offer insurance are able to purchase it directly in the Health Insurance Marketplace. The Marketplace offers a choice of health plans that meet certain benefit and cost standards. Also, effective January 1, 2014, tax credits became available for people with income between 100 percent and 400 percent of the federal poverty line who are not eligible for other affordable coverage. The tax credits are usable for reducing monthly premium credits for insurance coverage purchased on health care exchanges. PROVIDER RELATIONSHIPS One of the most basic needs in today s healthcare system is for payers and providers to work together in alignment. On average, 85 percent of health care premium dollars are spent on health services. It makes sense for payers to align themselves with those who control those costs. Providers generally accept responsibility for the health and well-being of the patients for whom they provide care. For the benefit of all parties, patients in particular, reducing bureaucracy and inefficiency makes sense. In December 2014, CMS awarded Ohio a State Innovation Model Test Award in the amount of $75 million over a 48-month project period, to support the design of innovative, multi-player health payment and service delivery models designed to improve health system performance, improve quality of care, and decrease costs. Ideally, this award should facilitate alignment among payers and providers to agree on goals in patient care, payment, and tools to help attain those goals. The Governor s Office for Health Transformation is leading this effort which so far has engaged Ohio s major employers, health plans, hospital systems and consumer advocates. Emerging new models for delivery of care and payment are potentially positive developments which can lead to improved outcomes and reducing long term costs. Change is slow and incremental. However, providers and payers seem to be resilient and up to the task of transforming the health care delivery and payment system in Ohio.
