"We’ve had a strong start to the year, with our outperformance underpinned by strong membership growth and favorable inpatient utilization trends in our individual Medicare Advantage business. The strength of our results enabled us to raise our full year 2023 Adjusted EPS by $0.25 to ‘at least $28.25’,” said Bruce D. Broussard, Humana’s President and Chief Executive Officer. "Complementing our strong financial results is our progress in advancing our strategy and growing our core businesses, including our industry-leading individual Medicare Advantage growth now projected at 17 percent for 2023, our continued organic growth in Medicaid, our recent Tricare contract award, and the continued expansion of our CenterWell assets in primary care, home health, and pharmacy. All in, we are pleased with the solid start, which reflects our company's strong fundamentals and positions us well for meeting our mid-term Adjusted EPS target of $37 in 2025."

(c) Generally, when the first day of a month falls on a weekend of holiday, with the exception of January 1 (New Year's Day), the
company receives its monthly Medicare premium payment from CMS on the last business day of the previous month. On a GAAP
basis, this can result in certain quarterly cash flows from operations including more or less than three monthly payments.
Consequently, when this occurs, the company reports Adjusted cash flows from operations to reflect three payments in each quarter
to match the related expenses.

Cautionary Statement
This news release includes forward-looking statements regarding Humana within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When used in investor presentations, press releases, Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings, and in oral statements made by or with the approval of one of Humana’s executive officers, the words or phrases like “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “likely will result,” “estimates,” “projects” or variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, including, among other things, information set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of the company’s SEC filings, a summary of which includes but is not limited to the following:
•If Humana does not design and price its products properly and competitively, if the premiums Humana receives are insufficient to cover the cost of healthcare services delivered to its members, if the company is unable to implement clinical initiatives to provide a better healthcare experience for its members, lower costs and appropriately document the risk profile of its members, or if its estimates of benefits expense are inadequate, Humana’s profitability could be materially adversely affected. Humana estimates the costs of its benefit expense payments, and designs and prices its products accordingly, using actuarial methods and assumptions based upon, among other relevant factors, claim payment patterns, medical cost inflation, and historical developments such as claim inventory levels and claim receipt patterns. The company continually reviews estimates of future payments relating to benefit expenses for services incurred in the current and prior periods and makes necessary adjustments to its reserves, including premium deficiency reserves, where appropriate. These estimates involve extensive judgment, and have considerable inherent variability because they are extremely sensitive to changes in claim payment patterns and medical cost trends. Accordingly, Humana's reserves may be insufficient.
•If Humana fails to effectively implement its operational and strategic initiatives, including its Medicare initiatives, which are of particular importance given the concentration of the company's revenues in these products, state-based contract strategy, the growth of its CenterWell business, and its integrated care delivery model, the company’s business may be materially adversely affected. In addition, there can be no assurances that the company will be successful in maintaining or improving its Star ratings in future years.
•If Humana fails to properly maintain the integrity of its data, to strategically maintain existing or implement new information systems, to protect Humana’s proprietary rights to its systems, or to defend against cyber-security attacks or prevent other privacy or data security incidents that result in security breaches that disrupt the company's operations or in the unintentional dissemination of sensitive personal information or proprietary or confidential information, the company’s business may be materially adversely affected.
•Humana is involved in various legal actions, or disputes that could lead to legal actions (such as, among other things, provider contract disputes and qui tam litigation brought by individuals on behalf of the government), governmental and internal investigations, and routine internal review of business processes any of which, if resolved unfavorably to the company, could result in substantial monetary damages or changes in its business practices. Increased litigation and negative publicity could also increase the company’s cost of doing business.
•As a government contractor, Humana is exposed to risks that may materially adversely affect its business or its willingness or ability to participate in government healthcare programs including, among other things, loss of material government contracts; governmental audits and investigations; potential inadequacy of government determined payment rates; potential restrictions on profitability, including by comparison of profitability of the company’s Medicare Advantage business to non-Medicare Advantage business; or other changes in the governmental programs in which Humana participates. Changes to the risk-adjustment model utilized by CMS to adjust premiums paid to Medicare Advantage plans or retrospective recovery by CMS of previously paid premiums as a result of the final rule related to the risk adjustment data validation audit methodology published by CMS on January 30, 2023 (Final RADV Rule), which Humana believes fails to address adequately the statutory requirement of actuarial equivalence due to its failure to include a "Fee for Service Adjuster (FFS Adjuster)" could have a material adverse effect on the company's operating results, financial position and cash flows.
•Humana's business activities are subject to substantial government regulation. New laws or regulations, or legislative, judicial, or regulatory changes in existing laws or regulations or their manner of application could increase the company's cost of doing business and have a material adverse effect on Humana’s results of operations (including restricting revenue, enrollment and premium growth in certain products and market segments, restricting the company’s ability to expand into new markets, increasing the company’s medical and operating costs by, among other things, requiring a minimum benefit ratio on insured products, lowering the company’s Medicare payment rates and increasing the company’s expenses associated with a non-deductible health insurance industry fee and other assessments); the company’s financial position (including the company’s ability to maintain the value of its goodwill); and the company’s cash flows.
•Humana’s failure to manage acquisitions, divestitures and other significant transactions successfully may have a material adverse effect on the company’s results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.
•If Humana fails to develop and maintain satisfactory relationships with the providers of care to its members, the company’s business may be adversely affected.
•Humana faces significant competition in attracting and retaining talented employees. Further, managing succession for, and retention of, key executives is critical to the Company’s success, and its failure to do so could adversely affect the Company’s businesses, operating results and/or future performance.
•Humana’s pharmacy business is highly competitive and subjects it to regulations and supply chain risks in addition to those the company faces with its core health benefits businesses.
•Changes in the prescription drug industry pricing benchmarks may adversely affect Humana’s financial performance.
•Humana’s ability to obtain funds from certain of its licensed subsidiaries is restricted by state insurance regulations.
•Downgrades in Humana’s debt ratings, should they occur, may adversely affect its business, results of operations, and financial condition.
•The securities and credit markets may experience volatility and disruption, which may adversely affect Humana’s business.
•The spread of, and response to, the novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, underscores certain risks Humana faces, including those discussed above, and the ongoing, heightened uncertainty created by the pandemic precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact to Humana of COVID-19.
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, the premiums the company charges may prove to be insufficient to cover the cost of health care services delivered to its members, each of which could be impacted by many factors, including the impacts that Humana has experienced, and may continue to experience, to its revenues due to limitations on its ability to implement clinical initiatives to manage health care costs
and chronic conditions of its members, and appropriately document their risk profiles, as a result of the company’s members being unable or unwilling to see their providers due to actions taken to mitigate the spread of COVID-19; increased costs that may result from higher utilization rates of medical facilities and services and other increases in associated hospital and pharmaceutical costs; and shifts in the company’s premium and medical claims cost trends to reflect the demographic impact of higher mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, Humana is offering, and has been mandated by legislative and regulatory action (including the Families First Act and CARES Act) to provide, certain expanded benefit coverage to its members, such as waiving, or reimbursing, certain costs for COVID-19 testing, vaccinations and treatment. These measures taken by Humana, or governmental action, to respond to the ongoing impact of COVID-19 (including further expansion or modification of the services delivered to its members, the adoption or modification of regulatory requirements associated with those services and the costs and challenges associated with ensuring timely compliance with such requirements), and the potential for widespread testing, treatments and the distribution and administration of COVID-19 vaccines, could adversely impact the company’s profitability.
The spread and impact of COVID-19 and additional variants, or actions taken to mitigate this spread, could have material and adverse effects on Humana’s ability to operate effectively, including as a result of the complete or partial closure of facilities or labor shortages. Disruptions in public and private infrastructure, including communications, availability of in-person sales and marketing channels, financial services and supply chains, could materially and adversely disrupt the company’s normal business operations. A significant subset of the company's and the company's third party providers' employee population are in a remote work environment in an effort to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, which may exacerbate certain risks to Humana’s business, including an increased demand for information technology resources, increased risk of phishing and other cybersecurity attacks, and increased risk of unauthorized dissemination of sensitive personal, proprietary, or confidential information. The continued COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted global economic activity, including the businesses of some of Humana’s commercial customers, and caused significant volatility and negative pressure in the financial markets. In addition to disrupting Humana’s operations, these developments may adversely affect the timing of commercial customer premium collections and corresponding claim payments, the value of the company’s investment portfolio, or future liquidity needs.
The ongoing, heightened uncertainty created by the pandemic precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact to Humana of COVID-19. Humana is continuing to monitor the spread of COVID-19, changes to the company’s benefit coverages, and the ongoing costs and business impacts of dealing with COVID-19, including the potential costs and impacts associated with lifting or reimposing restrictions on movement and economic activity, the timing and degree in resumption of demand for deferred healthcare services, the pace of administration of COVID-19 vaccines and the effectiveness of those vaccines, and related risks. The magnitude and duration of the pandemic remain uncertain, and its impact on Humana’s business, results of operations, financial position, and cash flows could be material.
In making forward-looking statements, Humana is not undertaking to address or update them in future filings or communications regarding its business or results. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed herein may or may not occur. There also may be other risks that the company is unable to predict at this time. Any of these risks and uncertainties may cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements.

"Complementing our strong financial results is our progress in advancing our strategy and growing our core businesses, including our industry-leading individual Medicare Advantage growth now projected at 17 percent for 2023, our continued organic growth in Medicaid, our recent Tricare contract award, and the continued expansion of our CenterWell assets in primary care, home health, and pharmacy.

Consolidated revenues
The favorable year-over-year GAAP consolidated revenues comparison was primarily driven by the following factors:
•individual Medicare Advantage and state-based contracts membership growth; and
•higher per member individual Medicare Advantage premiums.
These increases were partially offset by the following:
•the phase-out of COVID-19 sequestration relief in 2022,
•the anticipated decline in year-over-year membership associated with the company's group commercial medical, group Medicare Advantage and stand-alone PDP products, and
•the impact of the divestiture of the company's 60 percent ownership of Gentiva (formerly Kindred) Hospice that was completed in August 2022.
Refer to the "Footnotes" section included herein for a reconciliation of GAAP to Adjusted consolidated revenues for the respective periods.
Consolidated benefits expense
The year-over-year quarterly decline in the GAAP ratio reflects the following factors:
•increased individual Medicare Advantage premium yield,
•lower COVID-19 inpatient utilization in 1Q23, and corresponding decrease in average unit cost given the additional 20 percent payment on these admissions during the Public Health Emergency, and
•higher favorable prior period medical claims reserve development (Prior Period Development) in 1Q23.
These factors were partially offset by investments in the benefit design of the company's products for 2023.
Furthermore, the 1Q23 ratio continues to reflect a shift in line of business mix, with growth in individual Medicare Advantage and state-based contracts and other membership, which can carry a higher benefits expense ratio.
Refer to the "Footnotes" section included herein for a reconciliation of GAAP to Adjusted consolidated benefits expense ratio for the respective periods.
Prior Period Medical Claims Reserve Development (Prior Period Development)
| | | | | | | | | | | |
Consolidated Favorable Prior Period Development $ in millions Basis points (bps) | First Quarter |
Prior Period Development from prior years recognized in 2023 (includes $23 million of favorable development related to employer group commercial business) | $522 |
Decrease to GAAP benefits expense ratio | (200 bps) |
Prior Period Development from prior years recognized in 2022 (includes $32 million of favorable development related to employer group commercial business) | $360 |
Decrease to GAAP benefits expense ratio | (160 bps) |
Consolidated operating expenses
The decrease in the GAAP consolidated operating cost ratio from 1Q22 to 1Q23 primarily related to the following:
•the divestiture of the company's 60 percent ownership of Gentiva (formerly Kindred) Hospice in August 2022; the business had a significantly higher operating cost ratio than the company's historical consolidated operating cost ratio,
•scale efficiencies associated with growth in the company's individual Medicare Advantage membership, and
•the impact of initiatives related to the previously-disclosed value creation plan.
These factors were partially offset by the following:
•an increase in commissions for brokers related to the significant individual Medicare Advantage membership growth during the 2023 Annual Election Period (AEP) and Open Enrollment Period (OEP); and
•the favorable impact to revenues in 1Q22 as a result of sequestration relief.
Refer to the "Footnotes" section included herein for a reconciliation of GAAP to Adjusted consolidated operating cost ratio for the respective periods.
Balance sheet
•Days in claims payable (DCP) of 41.2 days at March 31, 2023 represented a decrease of 4.7 days from 45.9 days at December 31, 2022, and a decrease of 1.8 days from 43.0 days at March 31, 2022.
The 4.7-day sequential decrease was primarily due to seasonality related to net pharmacy expenses, which drove a reduction of approximately 3.5 days, along with a change in processed claims inventory, contributing a reduction of approximately 1-day.
The 1.8-day year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by a change in processed claims inventory.
Importantly, these items do not impact claims reserves and had no impact on benefits expense or the company's earnings for the quarter.
•Humana's debt-to-total capitalization at March 31, 2023 decreased 90 basis points to 41.1 percent from 42.0 percent at December 31, 2022 primarily resulting from the impact of 1Q23 net earnings and the repayment of outstanding amounts under a term loan. These factors were partially offset by the company's previously disclosed completion of a public offering of $1.25 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior notes during 1Q23.
Operating cash flows
GAAP operating cash flows in 1Q23 were significantly impacted by the timing of the premium payment from CMS, as the early receipt of the April 2023 Medicare premium payment of $6.65 billion was received in March 2023.
Excluding the impact of the early receipt, the year-over-year comparison reflected the negative impact of working capital items, partially offset by higher earnings in 1Q23 compared to 1Q22.

Insurance Segment Revenues:
The year-over-year increase in Insurance segment GAAP revenues primarily reflects the following items:
•individual Medicare Advantage and state-based contracts membership growth; and
•higher per member individual Medicare Advantage premiums.
These factors were partially offset by the following:
•the phase-out of COVID-19 sequestration relief in 2022; and
•the anticipated decline in year-over-year membership associated with the company's group commercial medical, group Medicare Advantage and stand-alone PDP products.
Refer to the "Footnotes" section included herein for a reconciliation of GAAP to Adjusted segment revenues for the respective periods.
Insurance Segment Benefits Expense:
The year-over-year decline in the GAAP ratio reflects the following:
• increased individual Medicare Advantage premium yield,
•lower COVID-19 inpatient utilization in 1Q23, and corresponding decrease in average unit cost given the additional 20 percent payment on these admissions during the Public Health Emergency, and
•higher favorable Prior Period Development in 1Q23.
These factors were partially offset by investments in the benefit design of the company's products for 2023.
Furthermore, the 1Q23 ratio continues to reflect a shift in line of business mix within the segment, with growth in individual Medicare Advantage and state-based contracts and other membership, which can carry a higher benefits expense ratio.
Refer to the "Footnotes" section included herein for a reconciliation of GAAP to Adjusted segment benefits expense ratio for the respective periods.
Insurance Segment Operating Costs:
The slight increase in the segment's 1Q23 GAAP operating cost ratio from 2022 primarily reflects the following:
•an increase in commissions for brokers related to the significant individual Medicare Advantage membership growth during the 2023 AEP and OEP; and
•the favorable impact to revenues in 1Q22 as a result of sequestration relief.
These factors were partially offset by the following:
•scale efficiencies associated with growth in the company's individual Medicare Advantage membership; and
•the impact of initiatives related to the previously-disclosed value creation plan.
Refer to the "Footnotes" section included herein for a reconciliation of GAAP to Adjusted segment operating costs ratio for the respective periods.

Humana’s CenterWell Segment
This segment includes pharmacy (excluding the PBM operations), provider, and home solutions. The segment also includes the impact of non-consolidating minority interest investments related to the company's strategic partnerships with Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe (WCAS) to develop and operate senior-focused, payor-agnostic, primary care centers, as well as the Gentiva (formerly Kindred) Hospice operations. Services offered by this segment are designed to enhance the overall healthcare experience. These services may lead to lower utilization associated with improved member health and/or lower drug costs.

CenterWell Segment Results in millions, except percentages | 1Q23 | 1Q22 |
Revenues | $4,505 | $4,365 |
Operating cost ratio | 91.6 | % | 90.5 | % |
Income from operations | $330 | $370 |
Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) (non-GAAP) (d) | $379 | $417 |
CenterWell Segment Revenues:
CenterWell segment revenues in 1Q23 increased compared to 1Q22; these changes were impacted by the following factors:
◦the company's individual Medicare Advantage membership growth, which led to higher pharmacy revenues,
◦higher revenues associated with growth in the company's provider business, and
◦greater intersegment revenues associated with the Home business as a result of the expansion of the value-based care home model in 1Q23 compared to the prior year quarter.
These increases were partially offset by the divestiture of the company's 60 percent ownership of Gentiva (formerly Kindred) Hospice in August 2022.
CenterWell Segment Operating Costs:
The year-over-year increase in the 1Q23 operating cost ratio from 1Q22 primarily resulted from the following factors:
◦previously discussed divestiture of the company's 60 percent ownership of Gentiva (formerly Kindred) Hospice operations, which had a lower operating cost than other businesses within the segment,
◦the expansion of the value-based care model within the Home Solutions business, which carries a higher ratio compared to the core fee-for-service business, along with growth in Medicare Advantage episodes in the core fee-for-service business, and
◦further investments within the Home Solutions business to abate the pressures of the current nursing labor environment.
These increases were partially offset by an improving ratio in the company's provider business.
See additional operational metrics for the CenterWell segment on pages S-10 through S-12 of the statistical supplement included in this release.

(c) Generally, when the first day of a month falls on a weekend of holiday, with the exception of January 1 (New Year's Day), the
company receives its monthly Medicare premium payment from CMS on the last business day of the previous month. On a GAAP
basis, this can result in certain quarterly cash flows from operations including more or less than three monthly payments.
Consequently, when this occurs, the company reports Adjusted cash flows from operations to reflect three payments in each quarter
to match the related expenses.

Cautionary Statement
This news release includes forward-looking statements regarding Humana within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When used in investor presentations, press releases, Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings, and in oral statements made by or with the approval of one of Humana’s executive officers, the words or phrases like “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “likely will result,” “estimates,” “projects” or variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, including, among other things, information set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of the company’s SEC filings, a summary of which includes but is not limited to the following:
•If Humana does not design and price its products properly and competitively, if the premiums Humana receives are insufficient to cover the cost of healthcare services delivered to its members, if the company is unable to implement clinical initiatives to provide a better healthcare experience for its members, lower costs and appropriately document the risk profile of its members, or if its estimates of benefits expense are inadequate, Humana’s profitability could be materially adversely affected. Humana estimates the costs of its benefit expense payments, and designs and prices its products accordingly, using actuarial methods and assumptions based upon, among other relevant factors, claim payment patterns, medical cost inflation, and historical developments such as claim inventory levels and claim receipt patterns. The company continually reviews estimates of future payments relating to benefit expenses for services incurred in the current and prior periods and makes necessary adjustments to its reserves, including premium deficiency reserves, where appropriate. These estimates involve extensive judgment, and have considerable inherent variability because they are extremely sensitive to changes in claim payment patterns and medical cost trends. Accordingly, Humana's reserves may be insufficient.
•If Humana fails to effectively implement its operational and strategic initiatives, including its Medicare initiatives, which are of particular importance given the concentration of the company's revenues in these products, state-based contract strategy, the growth of its CenterWell business, and its integrated care delivery model, the company’s business may be materially adversely affected. In addition, there can be no assurances that the company will be successful in maintaining or improving its Star ratings in future years.
•If Humana fails to properly maintain the integrity of its data, to strategically maintain existing or implement new information systems, to protect Humana’s proprietary rights to its systems, or to defend against cyber-security attacks or prevent other privacy or data security incidents that result in security breaches that disrupt the company's operations or in the unintentional dissemination of sensitive personal information or proprietary or confidential information, the company’s business may be materially adversely affected.
•Humana is involved in various legal actions, or disputes that could lead to legal actions (such as, among other things, provider contract disputes and qui tam litigation brought by individuals on behalf of the government), governmental and internal investigations, and routine internal review of business processes any of which, if resolved unfavorably to the company, could result in substantial monetary damages or changes in its business practices. Increased litigation and negative publicity could also increase the company’s cost of doing business.
•As a government contractor, Humana is exposed to risks that may materially adversely affect its business or its willingness or ability to participate in government healthcare programs including, among other things, loss of material government contracts; governmental audits and investigations; potential inadequacy of government determined payment rates; potential restrictions on profitability, including by comparison of profitability of the company’s Medicare Advantage business to non-Medicare
Advantage business; or other changes in the governmental programs in which Humana participates. Changes to the risk-adjustment model utilized by CMS to adjust premiums paid to Medicare Advantage plans or retrospective recovery by CMS of previously paid premiums as a result of the final rule related to the risk adjustment data validation audit methodology published by CMS on January 30, 2023 (Final RADV Rule), which Humana believes fails to address adequately the statutory requirement of actuarial equivalence due to its failure to include a "Fee for Service Adjuster (FFS Adjuster)" could have a material adverse effect on the company's operating results, financial position and cash flows.
•Humana's business activities are subject to substantial government regulation. New laws or regulations, or legislative, judicial, or regulatory changes in existing laws or regulations or their manner of application could increase the company's cost of doing business and have a material adverse effect on Humana’s results of operations (including restricting revenue, enrollment and premium growth in certain products and market segments, restricting the company’s ability to expand into new markets, increasing the company’s medical and operating costs by, among other things, requiring a minimum benefit ratio on insured products, lowering the company’s Medicare payment rates and increasing the company’s expenses associated with a non-deductible health insurance industry fee and other assessments); the company’s financial position (including the company’s ability to maintain the value of its goodwill); and the company’s cash flows.
•Humana’s failure to manage acquisitions, divestitures and other significant transactions successfully may have a material adverse effect on the company’s results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.
•If Humana fails to develop and maintain satisfactory relationships with the providers of care to its members, the company’s business may be adversely affected.
•Humana faces significant competition in attracting and retaining talented employees. Further, managing succession for, and retention of, key executives is critical to the Company’s success, and its failure to do so could adversely affect the Company’s businesses, operating results and/or future performance.
•Humana’s pharmacy business is highly competitive and subjects it to regulations and supply chain risks in addition to those the company faces with its core health benefits businesses.
•Changes in the prescription drug industry pricing benchmarks may adversely affect Humana’s financial performance.
•Humana’s ability to obtain funds from certain of its licensed subsidiaries is restricted by state insurance regulations.
•Downgrades in Humana’s debt ratings, should they occur, may adversely affect its business, results of operations, and financial condition.
•The securities and credit markets may experience volatility and disruption, which may adversely affect Humana’s business.
•The spread of, and response to, the novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, underscores certain risks Humana faces, including those discussed above, and the ongoing, heightened uncertainty created by the pandemic precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact to Humana of COVID-19.
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, the premiums the company charges may prove to be insufficient to cover the cost of health care services delivered to its members, each of which could be impacted by many factors, including the impacts that Humana has experienced, and may continue to experience, to its revenues due to limitations on its ability to implement clinical initiatives to manage health care costs and chronic conditions of its members, and appropriately document their risk profiles, as a result of the company’s members being unable or unwilling to see their providers due to actions taken to mitigate the spread of COVID-19; increased costs that may result from higher utilization rates of medical facilities and services and other increases in associated hospital and pharmaceutical costs; and shifts in the company’s premium and medical claims cost trends to reflect the demographic impact of higher mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, Humana is offering, and has been mandated by legislative and regulatory action (including the Families First Act and CARES Act) to provide, certain expanded benefit coverage to its members, such as waiving, or reimbursing, certain costs for COVID-19 testing, vaccinations and treatment. These measures taken by Humana, or governmental action, to respond to the ongoing impact of COVID-19 (including further expansion or modification of the services delivered to its members, the adoption or modification of regulatory requirements associated with those services and the costs and challenges associated with ensuring timely compliance with such
requirements), and the potential for widespread testing, treatments and the distribution and administration of COVID-19 vaccines, could adversely impact the company’s profitability.
The spread and impact of COVID-19 and additional variants, or actions taken to mitigate this spread, could have material and adverse effects on Humana’s ability to operate effectively, including as a result of the complete or partial closure of facilities or labor shortages. Disruptions in public and private infrastructure, including communications, availability of in-person sales and marketing channels, financial services and supply chains, could materially and adversely disrupt the company’s normal business operations. A significant subset of the company's and the company's third party providers' employee population are in a remote work environment in an effort to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, which may exacerbate certain risks to Humana’s business, including an increased demand for information technology resources, increased risk of phishing and other cybersecurity attacks, and increased risk of unauthorized dissemination of sensitive personal, proprietary, or confidential information. The continued COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted global economic activity, including the businesses of some of Humana’s commercial customers, and caused significant volatility and negative pressure in the financial markets. In addition to disrupting Humana’s operations, these developments may adversely affect the timing of commercial customer premium collections and corresponding claim payments, the value of the company’s investment portfolio, or future liquidity needs.
The ongoing, heightened uncertainty created by the pandemic precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact to Humana of COVID-19. Humana is continuing to monitor the spread of COVID-19, changes to the company’s benefit coverages, and the ongoing costs and business impacts of dealing with COVID-19, including the potential costs and impacts associated with lifting or reimposing restrictions on movement and economic activity, the timing and degree in resumption of demand for deferred healthcare services, the pace of administration of COVID-19 vaccines and the effectiveness of those vaccines, and related risks. The magnitude and duration of the pandemic remain uncertain, and its impact on Humana’s business, results of operations, financial position, and cash flows could be material.
In making forward-looking statements, Humana is not undertaking to address or update them in future filings or communications regarding its business or results. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed herein may or may not occur. There also may be other risks that the company is unable to predict at this time. Any of these risks and uncertainties may cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements.
Humana advises investors to read the following documents as filed by the company with the SEC for further discussion both of the risks it faces and its historical performance:
•Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022; and
•Form 8-Ks filed during 2023.

1Q23 Earnings Release
(A)Net losses associated with the company's non-consolidating minority interest investments.
(B)The Medicaid and other category includes premiums associated with the company’s Medicaid business, as well as premiums associated with the health plan's direct contracting entity.
(C)Membership includes state-based contracts, as well as members associated with the health plan's direct contracting entity.
(D)Fully-insured dental membership as reported does not include Humana members that have a Medicare Advantage plan that includes an embedded dental benefit.
(E)In certain circumstances, the company contracts with providers to accept financial risk for a defined set of Medicare Advantage membership. In transferring this risk, the company prepays these providers a monthly fixed-fee per member to coordinate substantially all of the medical care for their Medicare Advantage members assigned or attributed to their provider panel, including some health benefit administrative functions and claims processing. For these capitated Shared Risk arrangements, the company generally agrees to payment rates that target a benefit expense ratio. The result is a high level of engagement on the part of the provider.
(F)A Path to Risk provider is one who has a high level of engagement and participates in one of Humana’s pay-for-performance programs (Model Practice or Medical Home) or has a risk contract in place with a trigger (future date or membership threshold) which has not yet been met. In addition to earning incentives, these providers may also have a shared savings component by which they can share in achieved surpluses when the actual cost of the medical services provided to patients assigned or attributed to their panel is less than the agreed upon medical expense target.
(G)Fully-insured commercial medical premiums also include stop-loss premiums associated with the commercial ASO product; for purposes of the per member per month metric, the commercial ASO stop-loss premiums have been excluded.
(H)Specialty per member per month is computed based on reported specialty premiums and average fully-insured specialty membership for the period.
(I)The amounts primarily reflect services revenues under the TRICARE East Region contract that generally are contracted on a per-member basis.
(J)Computed based on average membership for the period (i.e. monthly ending membership during the period divided by the number of months in the period).
(K)De novo refers to all new centers opened since 2020 under a WCAS joint venture. Wholly-owned refers to all centers outside a WCAS joint venture.
(L)Represents Medicare Advantage (MA) risk, MA path to risk, MA value-based, Direct Contracting Entity, and Accountable Care Organization patients.
(M)Reflects patient admissions under the Patient Driven Groupings Model (PDGM) payment model.
(N)Reflects all patient admissions regardless of reimbursement model. Same store is defined as care centers that have been operated at least the last twelve months and startups that are an expansion of a same store care center.
(O)Members covered under the full value-based home model, which coordinates care and optimizes spend across home health, DME, and infusion provider categories.
