Our strategy offers our members affordable health care combined with a positive consumer experience in growing markets. At the core of this strategy is our integrated care delivery model, which unites quality care, high member engagement, and sophisticated data analytics. Our approach to primary, physician-directed care for our members aims to provide quality care that is consistent, integrated, cost-effective, and member-focused, provided by both employed physicians and physicians with network contract arrangements. The model is designed to improve health outcomes and affordability for individuals and for the health system as a whole, while offering our members a simple, seamless healthcare experience. We believe this strategy is positioning us for long-term growth in both membership and earnings. We offer providers a continuum of opportunities to increase the integration of care and offer assistance to providers in transitioning from a fee-for-service to a value-based arrangement. These include performance bonuses, shared savings and shared risk relationships. At
March 31, 2020
, approximately
2,514,000
members, or
66%
, of our individual Medicare Advantage members were in value-based relationships under our integrated care delivery model, as compared to
2,223,300
members, or
65%

Net income was
$473 million
, or
$3.56
per diluted common share, in the
2020 quarter
compared to
$566 million
, or
$4.16
per diluted common share, in the
2019 quarter
.
The quarter over quarter comparisons were significantly impacted by the put/call valuation adjustments associated with certain equity method investments which reduced earnings
$297 million
in the 2020 quarter compared to
$39 million
in the 2019 quarter.
Excluding the impact of the put/call valuation adjustments, the favorable comparison was driven by the strong performance of our Medicare Advantage business and Healthcare Services segment in the 2020 quarter partially offset by the expected lower contribution from our Group and Specialty segment. These changes were further favorably impacted by a lower number of shares used to compute dilutive earnings per common share, primarily reflecting share repurchases completed during 2019, partially offset by a higher tax rate resulting from the return of the non-deductible health insurance industry fee in 2020.

On April 6, 2020, CMS published its Announcement of Calendar Year 2021 Medicare Advantage Capitation Rates and Part C and Part D Payment Policies (the Final Rate Notice). We expect the Final Rate Notice to result in a 1.20% rate increase for our non end stage renal disease (ESRD) Medicare Advantage business, excluding the impact of Employer Group Waiver Plan (EGWP) funding changes. Our 1.20% rate increase compares to CMS’ estimate for the sector of 1.66% on a comparable basis, with the variance primarily driven by county rebasing and our geographic footprint. CMS also establishes separate rates of payment for ESRD beneficiaries enrolled in Medicare Advantage plans. We expect the Final Rate Notice to result in a 3.7% rate increase in 2021 for ESRD beneficiaries. Our estimate of 3.7% is slightly higher than CMS’ 3.6% which is also impacted by our geographic footprint.

|
Our operating cash flows for the 2020 quarter decreased from the 2019 quarter due to the timing of working capital items, including the impact of early prescription refills permitting members to prepare for extended supply needs in response to COVID-19, partially offset by higher income from operations.

Retail segment earnings
increased
$220 million
, or
47.3%
, from
$465 million
in the
2019 quarter
to
$685 million
in the
2020 quarter
primarily due to a lower benefit ratio, partially offset by a higher operating cost ratio as more fully described below. Our higher-than-anticipated individual Medicare Advantage membership growth in 2019, which had a muted impact on the segment's earnings last year, is now more profitable as a result of more members being engaged in our clinical programs and appropriately documented under the CMS risk-adjustment model.
|
•
|
Individual Medicare Advantage membership
increased
404,800
members, or
11.8%
, from
March 31, 2019
to
March 31, 2020
, primarily due to membership additions associated with the most recent Annual Election Period, or AEP, and Open Election Period, or OEP, for Medicare beneficiaries. The membership growth was further impacted by strong sales to age-ins and Dual Eligible Special Need Plans, or D-SNP. Individual Medicare Advantage membership includes 342,500 D-SNP members as of
March 31, 2020
, a net increase of 94,000, or 38%, from 248,500 as of
March 31, 2019
. The OEP sales period, which ran from January 1 to March 31, 2020 added approximately 20,700 members through March 31, 2020. An additional 10,300 members became effective April 1, 2020, for a total 2020 OEP impact of 31,000 members. In comparison, the 2019 OEP added approximately 28,700 members through March 31, 2019 and an additional 15,000 members with an April 1, 2019 effective date for a total 2019 OEP impact of 43,700 members.
|
•
|
Group Medicare Advantage membership
increased
89,500
, or
17.3%
, from
March 31, 2019
to
March 31, 2020
, primarily due to the addition of a large account in January 2020, along with net membership additions associated with the most recent AEP for Medicare beneficiaries.
|
•
|
Medicare stand-alone PDP membership
decreased
553,300
members, or
12.4%
, from
March 31, 2019
to
March 31, 2020
primarily reflecting net declines during the most recent AEP for Medicare beneficiaries. The anticipated decline was primarily the result of terminations driven by premium and benefit adjustments experienced by members that were previously enrolled in our 2019 Humana Walmart Rx plan and the 2019 Humana Enhanced plan, which were consolidated into the Premier Rx plan in 2020. The expected PDP losses were partially offset by growth in the new low-price Humana Walmart Value Rx plan, driven by both new sales and plan to plan changes.
|
•
|
State-based Medicaid membership
increased
156,000
members, or
33.8%
, from
March 31, 2019
to
March 31, 2020
. This increase primarily reflects the impact of discontinuing the reinsurance agreement with CareSource and the assumption of full financial risk for the existing Kentucky Medicaid contract as of January 1, 2020.
|
•
|
Retail segment premiums
increased
$2.7 billion
, or
19.6%
, from the
2019 quarter
to the
2020 quarter
primarily reflecting higher premiums as a result of membership growth and higher per member premiums in our Medicare Advantage and state-based contract businesses. These favorable items were partially offset by the decline in membership in our stand-alone PDP offerings.
|
•
|
The Retail segment benefit ratio
decreased
170 basis points from
88.3%
in the
2019 quarter
to
86.6%
in the
2020 quarter
primarily due to reinstatement of the non-deductible health insurance industry fee in 2020 which was contemplated in the pricing and benefit design of our products, and engaging our Medicare Advantage members, including the robust growth of members in 2019, in clinical programs, as well as ensuring they are appropriately documented under the CMS risk-adjustment model. The benefit ratio was further favorably impacted by the continued shift in Medicare membership mix due to the decline of stand-alone PDP members and significant growth in Medicare Advantage members; the benefit ratio for stand-alone PDP members generally is higher earlier in the year and then decreases as the year progresses. Lastly, the decrease in the benefit ratio was impacted by the benefit design of Humana’s 2020 Premier Rx plan, which includes a member deductible. These decreases were partially offset by the unfavorable impact of weekday seasonality including the impact of a leap year day in the 2020 quarter and lower favorable prior-period medical reserve development in the 2020 quarter.
|
•
|
The Retail segment's benefits expense for the
2020 quarter
included
$238 million
in favorable prior-period medical claims reserve development versus
$283 million
in the
2019 quarter
. Prior-period medical claims reserve development decreased the Retail segment benefit ratio by approximately
140
basis points in the
2020 quarter
versus approximately
200
basis points in the
2019 quarter
.
|
•
|
The Retail segment operating cost ratio of
9.2%
for the
2020 quarter
increased
100 basis points from
8.2%
for the
2019 quarter
primarily due to the reinstatement of the non-deductible health insurance industry fee in 2020, partially offset by scale efficiencies associated with growth in our Medicare Advantage membership and significant operating cost efficiencies in the 2020 quarter driven by previously disclosed productivity initiatives. The non-deductible health insurance industry fee impacted the operating cost ratio by
170
basis points in the
2020 quarter
.

$60 million
, or
36.4%
, from
$165 million
in the

to
$105 million

primarily reflecting our deliberate pricing and benefit design changes in our commercial business in response to the 2019 performance.

Fully-insured commercial group medical membership
decreased
96,600
members, or
10.1%
, from
March 31, 2019
to
March 31, 2020
. These anticipated declines primarily reflect lower membership in small group accounts due in part to more small group accounts selecting level-funded ASO products, as well as the loss of certain large group accounts due to disciplined pricing in the competitive environment. The portion of group fully-insured commercial medical membership in small group accounts was approximately 57% at

|
Specialty membership decreased
364,500
members, or
6.2%
, from
March 31, 2019

primarily due the loss of certain group accounts, including one jumbo account, offering stand-alone dental and vision products.

, or
1.5%
, from

to

,
primarily due to the decline in our fully-insured group commercial membership. The decrease was partially offset by higher stop-loss revenues related to our level-funded ASO accounts resulting from membership growth in this product and higher per member premiums across the fully-insured commercial business.

79.1%
in the
2020 quarter
primarily due to deliberate pricing and benefit design changes in the commercial business in response to the 2019 performance and the unfavorable impact of weekday seasonality including the impact of a leap year in the 2020 quarter. These increases were partially offset by the reinstatement of the non-deductible health insurance industry fee in 2020 which was contemplated in the pricing and benefit design of our products as well as higher favorable prior-period medical reserve development.
|
•
|
The Group and Specialty segment's benefits expense included
$46 million
in favorable prior-period medical claims reserve development in the
2020 quarter
versus unfavorable prior-period medical reserve development of
$16 million
in the
2019 quarter
. This favorable prior-period medical claims reserve development decreased the Group and Specialty segment benefit ratio by approximately
280
basis points in the
2020 quarter
while the unfavorable prior-period medical reserve development increased the benefit ratio by approximately
100
basis points in the
2019 quarter
.

•
|
The Group and Specialty segment operating cost ratio of
23.1%
for the
2020 quarter
increased
120 basis points from
21.9%
for the
2019 quarter
primarily reflecting the reinstatement of the non-deductible health insurance industry fee in 2020, partially offset by significant operating cost efficiencies in the 2020 quarter driven by previously disclosed productivity initiatives.

The non-deductible health insurance industry fee impacted the operating cost ratio by

Healthcare Services segment earnings of
$250 million
for the
2020 quarter
increased
$75 million
, or
42.9%
, from
$175 million
in the
2019 quarter
primarily due to higher earnings from our pharmacy operations, operational improvement in our provider services business, and higher earnings from our investment in Kindred at Home.

•
|
Humana Pharmacy Solutions script volumes on an adjusted 30-day equivalent basis
increased
to approximately
120 million
in the
2020 quarter
,
up
9.1%
, versus scripts of approximately
110 million
in the
2019 quarter
, primarily reflecting growth associated with higher individual Medicare Advantage membership along with the impact of early prescription refills as members prepared for extended supply needs in response to COVID-19. These increases were partially offset by the decline in stand-alone PDP membership.
|
•
|
Services revenues increased
$69 million
, or
44.2%
, from the
2019 quarter
to
$225 million
for the
2020 quarter
primarily due to the additional pharmacy revenues associated with the acquisition of Enclara in the 2020 quarter.
|
•
|
Intersegment revenues increased
$918 million
, or
15.4%
, from the
2019 quarter
to
$6.9 billion
for the
2020 quarter
primarily was due to strong Medicare Advantage membership growth and an increase in pharmacy revenues as a result of members being allowed early prescription refills to permit them to prepare for extended supply needs in response to COVID-19. These increases were partially offset by the loss of intersegment revenues associated with the decline in stand-alone PDP membership.

•
|
The Healthcare Services segment operating cost ratio of
96.0%
for the
2020 quarter
decreased 60 basis points from
96.6%
in the
2019 quarter
primarily as a result of operational improvements in our provider services business, largely related to Conviva, along with significant operating cost efficiencies in the 2020 quarter driven by previously disclosed productivity initiatives.

IBNR represents an estimate of benefits payable for claims incurred but not reported (IBNR) at the balance sheet date and includes unprocessed claim inventories. The level of IBNR is primarily impacted by membership levels, medical claim trends and the receipt cycle time, which represents the length of time between when a claim is initially incurred and when the claim form is received and processed (i.e. a shorter time span results in a lower IBNR). IBNR includes unprocessed claims inventories.
|
(2)
|
Reported claims in process represents the estimated valuation of processed claims that are in the post claim adjudication process, which consists of administrative functions such as audit and check batching and handling, as well as amounts owed to our pharmacy benefit administrator which fluctuate due to bi-weekly payments and the month-end cutoff.
|
(3)
|
Other benefits payable primarily include amounts owed to providers under capitated and risk sharing arrangements.
