3 The Healthcare Challenge Current costs and expected trends are creating a significant financial burden for employers While cost management initiatives can soften the trend curve, they will likely not be able to achieve company financial objectives without becoming disruptive Growing economy reinforces the need to use benefits to attract and retain the best talent Market dynamics are creating an opportunity for employers to think differently about the role they play in delivering healthcare benefits A key strategy being considered is a transition to a Defined Contribution (DC) structure Effective implementation of a DC solution requires a broad vision that goes beyond the concept of a fixed subsidy 3
4 The Imbalance of Total Compensation Source: Kaiser / HRET Survey of Employee-Sponsored Health Benefits, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Consumer Price Index, US City Average of Annual Inflation (April April), , Bureau of Labor Statistics, Seasonally Adjusted Data from the Current Employment Statistics Survey, (April April). 4
5 Key Healthcare Challenges For Employers Affordability For the company For plan participants Employee Engagement Meaningful choice Competitive level of benefits Predictability Sustainable/manageable trend Budgetable healthcare expense 2012 Bloom Health. All Rights Reserved 5
6 Traditional Responding To The Challenges: Potential Strategies Design increased cost sharing Pricing increased contributions Overall structure more limited, design and provider choice Innovative delivery solutions (e.g., clinics) Compliance models Defined Contribution Fixed/defined subsidy Expanded design platform Purchasing leverage through a healthcare exchange Effective decision support and positive consumer experience Uniform model across all participant groups (active, pre-65, post-65) Evolution towards a total benefits solution 2012 Bloom Health.

7 What Employers Are Considering State Exchanges Limited market segments Narrow range of benefits Limited choice architecture Concerns over consistency in service delivery and long term viability Private Exchanges Emerging mechanism for offering benefits Primary vehicle is an online purchasing marketplace Exchange models typically incorporate defined contribution strategies Defined Contribution Retiree Medical Exchanges Allows employer to create a budgetable trend line Most models are account based Absent other components, a fixed subsidy solution will have a limited shelf life Existing alternatives in an accepting marketplace Marketing focus has been on post-65 individual coverage solutions Recent implementation challenges have resulted in some market volatility 7
8 What Are Private Exchanges? Emerging mechanism for offering medical and specialty employer benefits and wellness offerings through h an online platform directly to retirees/consumers.

14 Why Design Expansion Is Critical: Defined Benefit Constraints Employer is at risk for migration and adverse selection Employee choice is limited, and employer subsidy is not transparent $12,000 $11,000 Status Quo DB PEPY $10,000 $9,000 $8,000 $7,000 $6,000 $5,000 $4,000 $7,000 Low Plan Employer Subsidy $8,000 High Plan Member Contributions 14
15 Why Design Expansion Is Critical: Defined e Contribution o Solutions o Employer fixes (reduced) Defined Contribution, eliminating migration risk Employee choice spans a wider spectrum of plan value, and employees are happier having the power of the purse $12,000 Bloom DC PEPY $11,000 $10,000 $9,000 $8,000 $7,000 $6,000 $7,300 $7,300 $7,300 $7,300 $7,300 $7,300 $7,300 $7,300 $7,300 $7,300 $5,000 $4,000 Plan 1 Plan 2 Plan 3 Plan 4 Plan 5 Plan 6 Plan 7 Plan 8 Plan 9 Plan 10 Employer DC Amount Member Contributions Exchange Fees 15
16 Core Components of a Successful DC Solution Fixed Subsidy Support for the new world of choice Recommendations for great matches Call center Flexible Platform Improved Service Model More Design Choice 16
17 The Private Exchange Model Employer $$$ Deposits money on behalf of each member into a Bloom Health account Bloom Private Pi Exchange Health Insurance Pharmacy Wellness Consumer Uses dollars to purchase health insurance and other services Educated about their optionsand benefits Manages health accounts for employees Has various products and services on the shelf Helps individuals buy services tailored to their needs Brings stakeholders closer to impending health care reform changes Ancillary Benefits Other (401k, PTO, etc.) Consumer shops for services in the Private Exchange Significantly more efficient and targeted sales and marketing 17
18 Decision Support A combination of online and live support that generates a custom list of recommended health products and related services that best match specific needs. 18
19 Platform Flexibility Structure Funding Limited network tied to vendors: Potential transition to Individual retail model Price point reflects access to broad array of providers Model ASO Retail Concepts Traditional Provider Network Group Insured Further streamlines the delivery model Accountable Care Alternatives High Performance Network Trades price reduction for narrower network Individual Covered Populations Active Pre 65 Post 65 19
20 Key Funding Considerations Self lffunded d Fully Insured PROS Allows for greater design flexibility Allows larger employers, who can handle claims variability, to avoid risk charges and premium taxes Capitalizes on potential impact of medical management initiativesi i i Benefits directly from buy down effect CONS Not a true DC solution Limits potential leverage of a multicarrier model PROS Risk transfer creates true DC approach Allows for future trend to be tied to non medical inflation indices Facilitates multi-carrier solutions (with effective risk adjustment) Defines true value of medical management/wellness CONS Imposes risk charges and premium taxes Requires compliance with insurance regulations 20
