🔔 Centene investor day kicks off tomorrow at 8:30 am EST and the following are the main storylines! 🔍 Centene dominates Medicaid and they are estimating they will lose 2.3-2.4 million covered lives of the 3.6 million they added during the Public Health Emergency (PHE) so an update will be insightful. As of 12/7, Kaiser Family Foundation reported that 12 million folks have lost coverage for Medicaid since April when they began unwinding the 24.5 million folks added to Medicaid during the PHE. https://lnkd.in/grbYpYRR 🔍 WellCare has really struggled over the past couple of years and Centene has said their focus in 2024 will be to rebuild their CAHPS survey, HEDIS and STAR ratings. They are claiming they want to focus on the Dual Eligible population going forward as it is a group they feel aligns well with their core business (Medicaid). Considering their moves away with vertical integration and the discussions surrounding CigMana, it raises the question: Is Medicare Advantage really a suitable market for them to continue in? 🔍 ACA seems to be one of the hottest lines of business in healthcare and I have noticed Centene has bragged on the last two earnings that they are number one in the space. Although open enrollment for Medicare Advantage ended last week, open enrollment for ACA does not end until 1/16/24. I look for an optimistic update on the Ambetter brand. 🔍 Centene begins with the Express Scripts PBM on 1/1/24 so I am sure we will get some insight on this transition from Caremark. With their over 20 million members, I am wondering how they are thinking about some of the PBM benefits being carved out by states from the Managed Care Organization. I want to see if they comment on how it may impact the ESI partnership. ➡ They are amassing quite a management team with Sarah London as CEO, Drew Asher as the CFO and now Susan Smith as COO. I am looking to hear more about their plans headed into 2024 and beyond.
