NARRATIVE SUMMARY

Community-Rated Individual Commercial Comprehensive Premium Rate Filings Plan Year 2021

Healthfirst Insurance Company, Inc. (Healthfirst) has submitted to the New York Department of

Financial Services (DFS) an application to adjust premium rates for direct pay individual market

health insurance coverage effective in 2021. Healthfirst has requested an increase in premium rates

for plans offered in 2021. The Department of Financial Services is reviewing Healthfirst’s requested

premium rate increase and will determine if the rates are appropriate based on the available

evidence.

The requested rate adjustments will affect all currently enrolled individual market subscribers

renewing coverage for the 2021 calendar year as well as new individual policies issued during the

2021 calendar year. Final rate adjustments approved by DFS will be effective January 1, 2021. The

rates are guaranteed for a 12-month period ending December 31, 2021 and are subject to New

York’s community rating and guarantee issue laws. Subscribers’ rates will vary according to the

benefit plan in which they enroll, as well as the census/family tier they select.

As of the date of the submission of this Narrative Summary, approximately 150 covered lives (i.e.,

subscribers and their covered dependents) are estimated to be affected by the rate adjustment.

A Description of Your Premium Rate

Your health insurance premium rate has two main components. One is the costs of paying for

medical care and the other is Healthfirst’s administrative costs.

1. Medical care costs. The largest portion of your health insurance premium rate goes toward

paying for the costs of the medical claims submitted by you and other members enrolled in

Healthfirst’s individual market plans. Under New York law, at least 82 percent of the premium

Healthfirst’s members pay must be put toward paying for the costs of medical claims. More

than 82 percent of Healthfirst’s premium dollars is used for paying medical expenses.

2. Administrative costs. Administrative expenses include a wide range of services and

functions, such as processing claims and upgrading technology to keep pace with the rapidly

changing health care sector. It also accounts for an array of member-centric expenses such

as conducting medical necessity reviews, managing members’ complex and chronic

conditions, maintaining a robust provider network, and partnering with the community on

health education initiatives.

Healthfirst takes a meaningful and evidence-based approach to determining how much of a rate

adjustment to request from DFS.

Narrative Summary – Healthfirst Insurance Company, Inc. Individual Plans –2021 NAIC 16031

Your Rate Adjustment Explained

Healthfirst is applying for a rate adjustment to account for marketplace trends and to reflect actual

and anticipated claims costs. While several market forces continue to drive health care costs higher

more generally, Healthfirst continues to strengthen the effectiveness of its care management and

quality improvement programs and robust network.

Healthfirst is requesting a higher rate for 2021 because several market forces continue to drive health care costs higher. These forces include:

• Cost increases for inpatient hospital, outpatient hospital, and physician services

• Cost increases for prescription drugs, including the increased use of expensive specialty prescriptions.

The overall requested rate increase is 2.4%. The premium rate increases, by plan metal level, that

Healthfirst is requesting are summarized in the table below:

Off-Exchange Individual EPO Plan Name Requested Increase

Long Island: 0.0%

Healthfirst Silver Total EPO

NYC: 3.0%

Long Island: 0.0%

Healthfirst Bronze Total EPO

Final Rate Adjustment

The final rate adjustment that Healthfirst members experience may differ than what DFS eventually approves. Healthfirst will notify its currently enrolled members approximately 60 days prior to the new rate taking effect.

1 Please complete all of the shaded boxes in rows 24-47 below. The goal of this Exhibit is to calculate the rate change being requested in a consistent manner for all insurers. 2 The "Weighted Average Monthly Base Premiums" in cells C24-G31 should be calculated as a weighted average of the insurer's base premiums (i.e., single adult rates prior to application of tier factors, etc.) using the number of plan subscribers as the weights. 3 Cells L24 - P31, should be a recalculation of cells C24-G31 where any plans (and associated members enrolled in those plans as of 3/31/2020) that will no longer be offered in 2021 are removed.4 The sum of cells C37-G44 should be equal to the Company's total membership for the relevant market as of 3/31/2020.5 Cells L37-P44 should be equal to cells C37-G44 less any members that are enrolled in plans that will no longer be offered in 2021.6 If the Company is not eliminating any plans in 2021, then cells C24-G31 and L24-P31 should be the same, as should cells C37-G44 and L37-P44.7 The "Conversion Factors" should be the factors that were developed in pricing to convert the "Weighted Average Monthly Base Premiums" to "Weighted Average Monthly PMPM Premium Rates". These factors should be adjusted as necessary to reflect any changes that are not reflected in the Base Premiums.8 The value in cell Q74 of this Exhibit should match cell D98 (Line 54) of Exhibit 18.9 The value in cell Z74 of this Exhibit should match cell D104 (Line 56) of Exhibit 18.

1 Please complete all of the shaded boxes in rows 28-52 below. The goal of this Exhibit is to provide insight with regard to how the Company's distribution of business by rating tier compares with the assumptions included in the required DFS Rating Tier Factors.2 The "2020 Weighted Average Monthly Tier Premiums by Metal level" in cells C28-G32 should be calculated as a weighted average of the actual premiums the insurer charges its subscribers (i.e., single adult rates with the tier factor included) using the Company's

actual number of subscribers as of 3/31/2020. FORMULA: For each Metal Level and Rating Tier = (SUM [Monthly premium charged for each Subscriber]) / (Total Number of Subscribers)3 Cells L28 - P32, should be a recalculation of cells C28-G32 where any plans (and associated members enrolled in those plans as of 3/31/2020) that will no longer be offered in 2021 are removed.4 Cells T28 - Y32, should be a recalculation of cells L28-P32 where the 2020 Subscriber premiums are replaced with the Proposed 2021 Subscriber Premiums (This calculation should also exclude any members currently in plans that will no longer be offered in 2021).5 The sum of cells C38-G42 should be equal to the Company's total number of subscribers for the relevant market as of 3/31/2020.6 Cells L38-P42 should be equal to cells C38-G42 less any subscribers that are enrolled in plans that will no longer be offered in 2021.7 The sum of cells C48-G52 should be equal to the Company's total number of members for the relevant market as of 3/31/2020.8 Cells L48-P52 should be equal to cells C48-G52 less any members that are enrolled in plans that will no longer be offered in 2021.9 If the Company is not eliminating any plans in 2021, then cells C28-G32 and L28-P32 should be the same, as should cells C38-G42 and L38-P42, as well as cells C48-G52 and L48-P52.

Requested Percentage Rate Change

Percentage Rate Changes should be calculated using membership as of 3/31/2020.This exhibit must be submitted as an Excel file and as a PDF file.

Market Segment Effective Date of New RateMetal Level

(or Catastrophic) Rating Region Product Name Product Street NameDISTRIBUTION OF MEMBERS - Number of Members with Requested Percentage Rate Change at Renewal

The weighted average percentage should be developed based on annualized premium volume or membership for that metal level, and rating region, including any applicable riders.

EXHIBIT 14: SUMMARY OF REQUESTED PERCENTAGE CHANGES

Use this Exhibit for both Individual and Small Group Market Plans. A separate Exhibit should be provided for Individual and Small Group filings.Market segment refers to Individual (which includes Catastrophic) or Small Group.The requested percentage rate change reflects the expected change in premium rates that would apply to the contract holder (or member for Small Group business) on that contract holder's next rate change date for each contract holder within the indicated combination of metal level, rating region, and product name.The "Product Street Name" is the product name as advertised to consumers (i.e., as consumers are likely to refer to this product/metal level when communicating with DFS). A separate row is to be used for each combination of metal level, rating region and product name.

If the percentage changes (lowest and highest and weighted average) are identical for all the rating regions, then separate rows by rating region need not be used, and "All Regions" can be shown in the Rating Region column. If the rate change range information differs by rating region, then separate rows need to be used for each rating region the insurer uses. Rating region names used on this exhibit are to use the standard rating region names developed by DFS (e.g., Albany Area, Buffalo Area, etc.).The "requested rate change" includes the impact of any riders (such as: age 29, domestic partner, family planning, pediatric dental, etc.)."Lowest" should be the smallest percentage change that could affect any contract holder due to the submitted rate filing with that metal level and rating region, including any applicable riders."Highest" should be the largest percentage change that could affect any contract holder due to the submitted rate filing with that metal level and rating region, including any applicable riders.

The effective date is the earliest date that the proposed new rate would become effective if approved. The Effective Date for Individual is 1/1/2021. Effective Dates for Small Group are 1/1/2021, 4/1/2021, 7/1/2021 and 10/1/2021.

behavioral benefit designs provided by ________________________ and does not opine on the [name of health insurer]

compliance of any wellness or incentive programs that ________________________ may choose to offer. [name of health insurer]

To measure compliance, we created an actuarial cost model of the medical/surgical benefits that included

mapping the underlying experience data allowed healthcare costs for the plans included in this filing

into the six benefit classifications (or sub-classifications allowed for outpatient benefits) that MHPAEA

permits. We tested the financial requirements and quantitative treatment limitations imposed on the

predominant financial requirements or treatment limitations applied to substantially all medical or

surgical benefits related to this filing.

5/5/2020 «SubscirberFirstName» «SubscriberLastName» «AddressLine1» «AddressLine2» «CITY», «STATE» «ZipCode» Re: Notice of Proposed Premium Rate Change Healthfirst [Plan Name] - HIOS ID 61405NY002[XXXX] Dear Healthfirst Member: Healthfirst Insurance Company, Inc. (Healthfirst) is filing a request with the New York State Department of Financial Services (DFS) to approve a change to your premium rates for 2021. New York Insurance Law requires that we provide a notice to you when we submit requests for premium rate changes to DFS. DFS is required by law to review our requested rate change. DFS may approve, modify or disapprove the requested rate change. Proposed Premium Rate Change If approved, the percentage change to your premium is [XX]%. If you enrolled through the NY State of Health, the state’s health plan marketplace, and you qualified for financial assistance called an Advanced Premium Tax Credit (APTC), your current premium is less than the amount shown above. Your 2021 premium will also be less than shown above if you qualify for the APTC again next year. NY State of Health will calculate your eligibility for financial assistance each year. Please note that while we try to provide you with the most accurate information possible, the final approved rate may differ based on the benefit plan design and other features you select on renewal. Also, the final approved rate may differ because DFS may modify the proposed rate. Why We Are Requesting a Rate Change Healthfirst is requesting a higher rate for 2021 because several market forces continue to drive health care costs higher. These forces include:

• Cost increases for inpatient hospital, outpatient hospital, and physician services

• Cost increases for prescription drugs, including the increased use of expensive specialty prescriptions

DFS’s view of these matters may differ.

Response

Does this filing include any revision to contract language that is not yet approved? See note (1). If yes, provide a brief

description of the contract language changes included in this filing.

No

Are there any rate filings submitted and not yet approved that if approved would affect the rate tables included in this

rate filing? If yes, mention these filings on Exhibit 16.

No

As mentioned in the checklist, this combined non-grandfathered product rate adjustment and form/rate filing can only include minor contract revisions, such as due to changes in the model language, changes to the catastrophic

plan due to change in out of pocket maximum, changes to the standard plan designs. Substantial changes need to be submitted as a separate rate and form filing (e.g., a new plan design not replacing an existing plan design,

contract language changes not just due to changes in the model language).

For purposes of complying with §3231(e)(1)(A) and §4308(c)(2) of the New York Insurance Law, rate applications will be considered to have been submitted after all of the relevant rate applications have been posted on the

Department's website. Once the rate applications have been posted, the Department will send a blast email instructing insurers to send their initial rate notices to policy/certificate holders. Notices should not be sent prior to

having received the blast email from the Department. Note that the 60 (or 80) day review period will begin on the day in which DFS designates as the filing due date and the 30 day consumer comment period will begin on the

date DFS sends the blast email to insurers.

Have all the required exhibits been submitted with this rate filing? If any exhibit is not applicable, has an explanation

been provided why such exhibit is not applicable?

Yes

Did the company submit a "Prior Approval Pre-filing" containing a draft of the initial notice and a draft of the narrative

summary and numerical summary associated with this rate filing? Indicate Yes or No, and if Yes, please provide the

SERFF number of the pre-filing.

Yes, HLFT-132345859

45 CFR 154.215 requires companies to submit rate filings via SERFF and HIOS simultaneously. Did the company

submit this rate filing in HIOS? If yes, please provide the HIOS submission tracking number.

General Information

Document Overview

This document contains the Part III Actuarial Memorandum for Healthfirst Insurance Company, Inc. (HFIC) rate

filing, for the Individual block of business with an effective date of January 1, 2021. This actuarial

memorandum is submitted in conjunction with the Part I Unified Rate Review Template (URRT).

The purpose of the actuarial memorandum is to provide certain information related to the submission,

including support for the values entered into the URRT, which supports compliance with the market rating

rules and reasonableness of applicable rate increases. This information may not be appropriate for other

purposes.

This memorandum is intended for use by the New York Department of Financial Services (DFS), the Center for

Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight (CCIIO), and their subcontractors to assist in the review of

HFIC’s Individual rate filing. The memorandum contains information that is confidential and proprietary to

HFIC; therefore, the memorandum should not be distributed to any other parties unless required by law.

HFIC entered the small group and individual commercial markets on January 1, 2017. As of March 2020, total

HFIC Individual membership is 147. At no time between January 2017 and March 2020 did HFIC Individual

membership exceed 190.

The results are actuarial projections. Actual experience is likely to differ for a number of reasons including

population changes, claims experience, risk adjustment, and other deviations from assumptions.

This memorandum is organized into the following sections:

• Section 1: Development of the index rate

• Section 2: Supporting Detail on Material Assumptions

• Section 3: Additional Notes

• Section 4: Actuarial Certification

Our appendices to this Actuarial Memorandum are the following:

• Appendix A: Market-wide Index Rate Adjustments

• Appendix B: Quality Improvement Program

• Appendix C: Exhibit 18

• Appendix D: AV Calculator Snapshots

Section 1: Development of the Index Rate

We develop the Index Rate in Exhibit 18; our description follows the lines of Exhibit 18.

1.1 Experience Period Premium and Claims

Our experience is based on HFIC Individual (HFIC) premium and claims experience incurred in 2019 and paid through February 2020. With 147 average monthly members, this block is not fully credible for 2021 rating purposes. Therefore, the individual experience of another company, Healthfirst PHSP, Inc. (“Healthfirst PHSP”), which is controlled by a common parent company, is used as a benchmark for the rates developed for HFIC Individual. To have a consistent set of rating exhibits, we complete the exhibits as if HFIC is fully credible, and develop an adjustment factor in Exhibit 18, Row 27 to link the HFIC experience to the much larger QHP Individual experience.

Manual rates were not used in our development of rates for 2021.

Capitation payments are included in the claims experience for 2019.

The average pricing actuarial value reflected in the experience is 0.81008 (Line 11).

1.2 Market Level Adjustments

The following adjustments were made to the starting QHP data discussed above. Each one of these factors is included in Exhibit 18 required by New York State. For your review, we have included the market-wide adjustments from Exhibit 18 in Appendix A and have identified the line numbers from Exhibit 18 that reference the adjustments discussed below.

For market-wide adjustments, the following lines have factors of 1.000 in Exhibit 18:

Page 58: Filing at a Glance - myportal.dfs.ny.gov … · SERFF Tracking #: HLFT-132346272 State Tracking #: 2020050262 Company Tracking #: State: New York Filing Company: Healthfirst Insurance

• Line 13: Adjustment for EHB Benefit Level (no vision and drug benefits)

• Line 14: Change to Provider Network

• Line 15: Market-wide adjustments for fee schedule changes

• Line 16: Market wide adjustment for utilization management changes

• Line 17: Market wide adjustment for impact on claim costs from quality improvement and cost containment

initiatives

• Line 20: Impact of adjustments due to experience period claim data not being sufficiently credible

• Line 21: Adjustment for changes in distribution of risk pool membership by rating regions (i.e., standard rating

regions)

• Line 22: Impact on risk pool of changes in expected covered membership risk characteristics (Small Group

Only)

For market-wide adjustments, the following lines have factors not equal to 1.000 in Exhibit 18:

• Claims Trend Projection Factor (Line 18) -

We assume an annual trend of 6.6% from the experience period to the projection period. This annual trend of 6.6% gives us a trend factor of 1.136. We discuss trend further in Section 2.1 of this document.

• Federal Risk Adjustment (Line 19) -

We use the following terminology in this rate filing:

• A negative amount is a payable amount while a positive number is a receivable amount.

• CMS terminology, with the abbreviations used in this document, are the following:

• Transfer Amount Before RADV PLRS Adjustment (RA)

• RADV PLRS Adjustment (RADV)

• Transfer Amount After RADV PLRS Adjustment (RA After RADV)

For Risk Adjustment, HFIC is too small a block on which obtain credible risk adjustment estimates for rating

purposes. The factor we use Is from Healthfirst PHSP, as follows:

Wakely gave an estimate of RA of ($6.34) per member per month (pmpm) for 2021; this ($6.34) pmpm is the amount of risk adjustment of 2019 based on 2021 risk adjustment parameters. For 2021, the relative weights for risk adjustment are adjusted nationally based on emerging claim experience by diagnosis. This ($6.34) does not take into account trend in market average premium. The risk calculations for Healthfirst QHP by CMS and Wakely are shown in Files 1 and 2, respectively, When we combine this estimate of risk adjustment of ($6.34) pmpm and an assumption that the market average premium will increase by 5.00% annually from 2019 to 2021, we obtain our expected RA for 2021 of $6.99 pmpm and our RA factor of 1.01:

Page 59: Filing at a Glance - myportal.dfs.ny.gov … · SERFF Tracking #: HLFT-132346272 State Tracking #: 2020050262 Company Tracking #: State: New York Filing Company: Healthfirst Insurance

The RADV audit for 2020 is cancelled. With RADV scheduled to resume in 2021 after a one year hiatus, we assume that RADV for 2021 will be zero. The RA After RADV for 2021 is priced at ($6.99) pmpm.

If the actual risk adjustment for Healthfirst QHP, including RADV (RA After RADV), varies from

this ($10) pmpm payment estimate, it could affect the adequacy of our rates for HFIC

Individual.

Impact of changes in New York State Law that are not reflected in the experience data ** (Line 23a)

When we estimate the change for a specific benefit to be less than 0.1% of premium, we do not change premium for this benefit. We estimate that the new benefits will increase premium 1.07%, calculated as follows:

The Mental Health & Autism benefit, priced at 0.28% of claims for 2020, is not the experience for

2019. The Out-of-Network rider with a rate of 0.33% of premium was filed on or around December

19, 2019. We estimate that the expansion of the provision of the OON rider would increase rates

another 0.33%.

The new dialysis benefit effective January 1, 2020 is priced at 0.13% of claims, calculated as follows:

2021 Estimated RA Based on 2019 Experience (6.34) (1)

Covered Lives Assessment and Taxes (Line 24)

The factor for Covered Lives Assessment, Section 206, and Premium taxes are covered as follows:

PCORI, Risk Adjustment User Fee (Line 25)

For 2021, the Risk Adjustment User Fee and PCORI are estimated at $0.25 and $0.20, respectively.

With a PMPM base of $701.87, we get a factor of 1.00064.

Expanded Urgent Care (Line 26)

An additional benefit is access to CVS Minute Clinic. We calculate the cost of this expanded benefit as

follows:

Stop-Loss and Adjustment for credibility of data (Line 27)

Through the Affordable Care Act, a High‐Cost Risk Pool with an attachment point of $1 million was established. Wakely has estimated the cost of this coverage for 2021 at 0.28%. for Individual plans In 2019, HFIC had zero claims over $1 million. Thus, the premium for this coverage is a cost without corresponding recoveries. The factor is 1.0028.

For claims incurred in 2019, and paid through March 2020, Incurred medical and pharmacy claims for HFIC is $579.99 and for Healthfirst QHP, it is $386.94 PMPM; with HFIC experience being 50% Higher than Healthfirst QHP after the rate increase for both HFIC and Healthfirst QHP of 3.0% for NYC and 0% for Long Island. The factor of 1.11031 accomplishes this. We get a combined factor for stop-loss and credibility of 1.11311 (= 1.11031 + 0.0028).

1.3 Plan Level Adjustments

Plan level adjustments that have a factor of 1.000 are the following: Line 32: Provider network characteristics Line 33: Delivery system characteristics

Section 2: Supporting Detail on Material Assumptions

2.1 Trend

The annual trend factors used are the following:

Inpatient: 5.4%

Outpatient: 5.4%

Physician: 5.4%

Prescription drug: 8.7%

Leveraging impact: 0.0%

Overall trend: 6.6%

The trend factors above are for cost and utilization trend combined.

With total claim costs at 64% and 36% for medical and Rx, respectively, we obtain an annualized trend of

6.6%, which equals 64% * 5.4% + 36% * 8.7%. The 2-year trend factor is 1.1365.

These annual trends of 5.4% Medical and 8.7% prescription drug are for 2018 through 2021 in the AV

calculator documentation

Other sources of trend are the following:

• The Segal Company projects trend for EPO’s (which HFIC plans are) to 2020 at 7.6%, which is

higher than the trend that we are using.

• The PWC Medical Cost Growth rate is 5.7% for 2018 and 2019, and 6.0% for 2020.

• Deloitte estimates overall trend from 2018 to 2022 at 5.4%.

• The Milliman Medical Index (MMI) for medical cost increases from 2017 to 2018 is 2.9% and

3.8% from 2018 to 2019 for medical and prescription trend combined. These trends are lower

than almost all of the other sources.

2.2 Administrative Expenses and Taxes

The administrative expense is expected to be and priced at 13.2% of premium.

Healthfirst utilized an allocation methodology that distributes departmental costs using driver- based

allocation, for example, membership, number of claims, number of calls, premium revenue, etc. We also

distinguish departments between “fixed and variable” depending on the impact of membership growth on

staffing levels. For example, Claims is considered a variable department since claims volume varies

proportionately by membership. On the other hand, Finance Corporate, for example, is a department

unaffected by membership growth for the most part.

Page 64: Filing at a Glance - myportal.dfs.ny.gov … · SERFF Tracking #: HLFT-132346272 State Tracking #: 2020050262 Company Tracking #: State: New York Filing Company: Healthfirst Insurance

Exchange administrative projections were driven by three main components – Projected 2020 membership,

premium revenue and medical costs. These components under our products were used to drive cost

allocations for “variable” departments while a “current run-rate” pmpm was used to drive “fixed”

departments, with nominal inflation.

Our administrative costs include, but are not limited to, marketing and sales, enrollment, claims administration,

medical management, member services, network management, product management, clinical and quality

performance management, compliance, legal, regulatory, finance and actuarial. This fee will not include the

taxes and fees described below.

Our quality improvement/cost containment programs that impact the health plans, are estimated at 0.80% of

premium and is included in the 13.2% estimate. Please refer to Appendix B for a description of all quality

improvement/cost containment programs that impact the health plans included in the risk pool. This should

tie in with the activities that improve health care quality, as specified in Exhibit 19 (DFS), the HHS MLR report

and the Supplemental Health Care Exhibit.

2.3 Target Margin

The target margin is 1.5% of premium.

Profit or Contribution to Surplus margin of 1.5% was included in all plans. This is consistent with our current

ROI for other products. Healthfirst recognizes the need to have positive margins on our programs. We believe

that our 1.5% operating margin would provide necessary capital to invest in the company’s infrastructure,

provide adequate capital to meet reserve requirements for Healthfirst, and provide high quality care to our

members.

The ROI for HFIC (Individual and Group combined) in 2018 is 1.11% and 2.65% for 2019. 2018 is the first year

with at least 1,000 members in Group and Individual combined in every month of the year.

2.4 Adjustments to Actuarial Benefit Values and Actuarial Pricing Values

This is discussed in Section 1.3, under the discussion of the adjustment factor for line 30 of Exhibit 18.

2.5 Conversion Factors

The final premium rates for Employee Only, Employee and Spouse, Employee and Child(ren) and

Employee/Spouse/Child(ren) are based on census factors prescribed by CMS:

Page 65: Filing at a Glance - myportal.dfs.ny.gov … · SERFF Tracking #: HLFT-132346272 State Tracking #: 2020050262 Company Tracking #: State: New York Filing Company: Healthfirst Insurance

Census Tiers Relativity

Single 1.000

Single+Spouse 2.000

Single+Child(ren) 1.700

Single+Spouse+Child(ren) 2.850

Child Only 0.412

For a Child Only plan that covers two children in a family, the premium rate would be twice the one child

premium rate. For a Child Only plan that covers three or more children in a family, the premium rate would

be three times the one child premium rate, consistent with HHS Regulations.

For a Child Only plan that covers two children in a family, the premium rate would be twice the one child

premium rate. For a Child Only plan that covers three or more children in a family, the premium rate would

be three times the one child premium rate, consistent with HHS Regulations.

We have developed loading factors based on our March 2020 membership. Our loading factor from the

per member rate to the single rate is 1.1083. This 1.1083 is the reciprocal of 0.9023, as shown in cells c47,

L47, and U47 in Exhibit 13c.

The development of the conversion factor is shown in the table below:

Section 3: Additional Notes

3.1 MLR

Two loss ratios are calculated, one consistent with the New York State prescribed Medical Loss Ratio (MLR)

methodology and one based on the Federal definition. The anticipated New York MLR is 85.3%, which exceeds

the minimum allowable MLR of 82%. The anticipated Federal MLR is 88.5%, which exceeds the Federal

minimum MLR of 80%.

3.2 Plan Type

The Plan Types listed in the URRT accurately describe Healthfirst’ s plans.

3.3 Reliance

In the preparation of this filing, I relied upon estimates from CMS and Wakely and Associates for their estimates

of risk adjustment.

I performed general reasonableness checks, but I have not audited the data and have relied upon its accuracy.

To the extent that the underlying data is inaccurate, this filing may also be inaccurate. Actual results will almost

certainly vary from those projected in the filing. This is due to random fluctuations, unexpected large claims,

changes in population and other such factors.

Appendix B

Healthfirst 2021 Quality Strategy

A. Improving Health Outcomes Healthfirst implements health promotion and care management programs to contribute in a meaningful way to improved health outcomes for our members. The objective of these programs is to increase member access and engagement with preventive health services, especially the patient-centered medical home, to promote appropriate utilization of services for acute and chronic care. Additional objectives of these programs include optimization of member capability for self-management and collaboration with the provider’s care and treatment strategies. Preventive Health: Member Access and Engagement Healthfirst provides members with health information, health promotion education and participation in care management program opportunities. For example, at the Healthfirst Healthy Living website, members have access to information that can help them understand how they can best fulfill prevention needs such as mammography and colon cancer screening. Central to the initial engagement of members is the assistance that Healthfirst provides to members to schedule an appointment with their primary care provider after enrollment. Healthfirst Member Services is available to assist the member with contacting their assigned primary care provider and making the first appointment. Chronic Care Management: Promoting Self-Management and Adherence to Care / Care Compliance Healthfirst works collaboratively with primary care, mental health and substance abuse and specialty practices to promote the delivery of evidence-based care to our members living with chronic conditions using a three-pronged approach:

1) Promoting Health Knowledge and Self-Management: using a variety of approaches, Healthfirst reaches out to members to close gaps in knowledge about their conditions and critical adherence and self-management strategies. Members are educated on the importance of adhering to medications and recognizing potential adverse effects associated with their therapeutic regimens. Efforts are made to identify and manage potential barriers to therapy to minimize the potential of medication non-compliance. Materials are produced based on the needs of members identified through quality and utilization reports, as well as from feedback from our members and providers. Examples include printed brochures, newsletters, targeted member letter and reminder campaigns.

2) Care Management: Based on the profile of disease prevalence and utilization patterns of our members, Healthfirst welcomes members to participate in focused disease management programs and initiatives. Conditions that may be addressed by our care managers include: diabetes, asthma, schizophrenia and sickle cell anemia.

3) Patient centered medical home: Healthfirst supports physicians and clinicians in the medical home by providing opportunities to refer members with complex needs to care management, and by sharing care plans with the patient’s key providers when there is a change in health status or as requested.

Provider Partnership and Collaboration Healthfirst works closely and collaboratively with its primary care practices to meet the health needs of our members. Many of our primary care practices have met NCQA criteria for designation as a “patient centered medical home,” or PCMH. Health outcome targets are defined no less than annually and shared with the Healthfirst provider network to

Page 72: Filing at a Glance - myportal.dfs.ny.gov … · SERFF Tracking #: HLFT-132346272 State Tracking #: 2020050262 Company Tracking #: State: New York Filing Company: Healthfirst Insurance

create a shared agenda to improve health outcomes for our members. Tools to support providers in caring for and serving our members include:

• Provider clinical bulletins detailing pragmatic ways to promote evidenced based care and improved outcomes

• Provider Symposia, which allows Healthfirst providers to highlight and share their best practices

• Provider Partnership Practice meetings for Healthfirst care management, quality and network staff to provide interim reports with feedback on utilization and quality, as well as satisfaction and medication utilization and adherence

Monitoring and Performance Improvement No less than four times per year, Healthfirst administrative and clinical teams, along with Healthfirst community providers, meet to review care management and quality activity and outcomes. At these quality meetings, thresholds and targets for quality performance are approved, trends in health outcomes and plan performance are reviewed, recommendations are made and work plans are monitored. Clinical Quality and Care Management programs are initiated to close gaps in targeted health outcomes and to improve strategies for identifying and minimizing medication barriers, thus improving compliance and therapeutic outcomes. Furthermore, Healthfirst’s Behavioral Health Services unit conducts additional quality improvement subcommittee meetings, which ultimately report up to the organization’s Quality Improvement Committee. Recognizing the significance of behavioral health, the focus of these subcommittee meetings is to monitor and develop various quality metrics, outcomes and performance improvement initiatives specific to behavioral health.

B. Preventing Hospital Readmissions Healthfirst members at high risk for poor health outcomes and / or challenges in navigating the health care delivery system are identified based on patterns of utilization, such as fewer than expected primary care visits, frequent inpatient admissions, readmissions within 30 days in a defined time period or presence of a condition that places them at high risk for readmission such as congestive heart failure. These members are enrolled in complex care management. They receive intensive outreach that includes a detailed assessment which forms the foundation for a comprehensive care plan to address the areas of need. Once outreach and assessment are complete, the care manager will offer community based services to support high risk members, such as home visits, medication reconciliation and post discharge coaching and reminders. Whenever possible, Healthfirst care managers work closely with hospital discharge planners to ensure a safe hospital discharge. Healthfirst also collaborates with providers and community based organizations to identify regional strategies to address difficult psychosocial issues such as homelessness, mental health and substance abuse community programs and innovative strategies to address navigation and cultural barriers to effective health care. Healthfirst offers primary care provider practices near real time notice that their assigned members have been hospitalized to promote the implementation of practice care coordination, including early appointments for members post discharge. The Healthfirst primary care practices receive feedback about the types of emergency department visits, preventable admissions and readmissions that their population of members has experienced in the previous quarter and year.

C. Improving Patient Safety Healthfirst has implemented two major approaches for improving the safety of our patients. Medication Management Healthfirst supports and promotes the use of electronic prescribing and medication reconciliation to reduce polypharmacy and improved communication between the patient, the pharmacist and the prescriber. Through our pharmacy benefit manager, Healthfirst utilizes all point of sale edits available to improve the likelihood that members receive an optimized medication regimen. Pharmacy formulary notifications and other prescriber concerns related

to the pharmacy benefit are distributed via multiple modalities which may include the Healthfirst portal, mail and email. Patients are educated through our newsletter about safe use of prescription medication. Quality Assurance Reviews The Healthfirst Care Management Department and Medical Directors investigate potential quality assurance issues as reported by members, providers or Healthfirst staff to determine specific areas of risk for poor health outcomes for our members. Trends in provider, practice or network performance are discussed, and when necessary Healthfirst requires corrective action plans to avoid recurrence of confirmed quality of care events.

D. Wellness and Health Promotion Activities Healthfirst has a number of wellness and health promotion programs that seek to meaningfully improve health outcomes for our members by increasing member access to preventive health services, promoting appropriate utilization of services for acute and chronic care, and optimizing member health status. Vendor Engagement Strategy In an attempt to better align with the growth and top quality strategy needs of the enterprise, the Spectrum of Health group was divided into two separate teams: Clinical Quality (CQ) Vendor Engagement and Clinical Quality Outreach. The primary focus of the CQ Vendor Engagement team is to initiate, manage and evaluate all vendors touching our members with the intent of improving health outcomes as measured by HEDIS, CMS Stars, QARR and QRS quality ratings. The Clinical Quality Outreach team’s primary objective continues to be the engagement of members with the intent of closing HEDIS care gaps utilizing live calls and other communication modalities. The teams also collaborate to complete quality rubrics and manage clinical studies including Performance Improvement Projects (PIPs) and required vendor-issued Corrective Action Plans (CAPs). The two teams continue to work closely with other key departments to ensure a seamless experience for our members when interacting with vendors. The Vendor Engagement Outreach Program is outcomes-focused, seeking to:

• Promote access to age and gender appropriate primary, secondary and tertiary prevention services

• Ensure age and gender appropriate preventive and care management milestones are met

• Facilitate management of chronic illness

• Optimize the functional status of members in the community Vendor Engagement Outreach programs meet the targeted needs of beneficiaries by utilizing the following strategies where appropriate:

• Population based education tools such as web-based information

• Targeted education, reminders and alerts in the form of personalized live calls, emails, text messages (SMS), IVR calls, and/or letters for members/providers with care gaps in preventive or chronic care services

• Provider-based outreach, education, and support

• Community-based outreach and education in collaboration with community partners with a shared vision regarding health promotion goals

Healthfirst continually evaluates and improves health promotion programming by collecting, analyzing, and acting on performance data trends. Provider Collaboration & Reporting Healthfirst regularly collaborates with providers with the objective of meaningfully improving health outcomes for members. Communication occurs via telephone, on-site visits, webinars, and publication of relevant articles in newsletters and via the web portal, provider clinical bulletins, and targeted mailings.

Key components of Healthfirst’s provider reporting efforts include:

• Quality Reporting: provider quality reports are posted on the Healthfirst provider web portal for concurrent review of status for HEDIS and New York State QARR measures in comparison with HF targets

• Member Missing Services Lists: lists of providers’ measure-specific non-compliant members in their panel are posted to the provider web portal. Providers are encouraged to outreach members needing services (e.g., preventive screenings, recommended lab tests, communications on medication adherence) and schedule appointments to close gaps in care.

E. Reducing Health and Health Care Disparities Healthfirst is a regionally focused health plan with strong community partnerships and established processes and programs to reduce health and healthcare disparities among its members. Language Services Healthfirst’s member-facing staff is reflective of its diverse membership. Member Services Representatives are available to speak to members in English, Spanish, Mandarin, Cantonese and Russian. To serve members with other language preferences, Healthfirst uses a language line service. Healthfirst continually evaluates use and performance of the language line to identify opportunities for improvement as well as emerging language needs. Community Outreach Healthfirst has 15 community offices that are each fully staffed with representatives to answer questions. In addition to these community offices, Healthfirst also has mobile vans, mall kiosks, and tables set up in local hospitals, clinics, and other locations to serve members. Representatives are fluent in the languages commonly spoken in the surrounding communities and provide the following services for members:

• Renewing or re-certifying health insurance

• Providing information about the health services and benefits offered by Healthfirst

• Addressing general member questions or needs, such as changing Primary Doctor (PCP), changing address or other personal information, or requesting a new member ID card

• Providing tips, brochures, and other information to help live a healthier life

• Linking members to other helpful community organizations Healthfirst hosts and/or supports over 600 community events per year. Examples of events that Healthfirst has supported include:

• Health Literacy Events

• Health Fairs / Street Fairs

• Nutrition Workshop / Healthy Cooking Contest

• Breast Cancer / HIV / Blood Pressure / A1C Screenings

• Diabetes Prevention & Health Awareness Days

• Infant Immunization Events

• World Health Day Events

• Community Running Events

• Holiday celebrations (e.g., Lunar Chinese New Year, Three Kings Day, Dominican Heritage, Black History Month, Women’s History Month, Veterans Day)

• Family Day Events (located at NYCHA housing)

Cultural Competency Trainings Healthfirst has a comprehensive cultural competency training program. The objective of this program is to support the organization in its aims to (1) deliver the highest-quality service to every member regardless of race, ethnicity, culture, or language proficiency and (2) eliminate racial/ethnic disparities in health care. Healthfirst’s Member Services department serves as the front line staff for member questions and concerns. All member services representatives participate in an interactive, instructor-led cultural sensitivity training when they are hired. In subsequent years, Member Services representatives are required to take an annual refresher course on cultural sensitivity. In addition, all Healthfirst employees are required to annually complete an online cultural competency course, the objective of which is to raise awareness of cultural competence activities and opportunities for growth as part of an effort to improve each employee’s ability to serve our members and their communities with cultural awareness and sensitivity.

F. Behavioral Health Services The behavioral health program provides access to a full continuum of care, utilizing acute inpatient services, partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs along with ambulatory outpatient care. The program is designed to assist members in finding the appropriate provider to meet their needs and to facilitate timely access to treatments and services including emergency, urgent and routine office care. Healthfirst is ready to work with members to determine a specific provider and, where necessary and desired, assist the member in obtaining an appointment. Additionally, we provide members access to Behavioral Health Clinicians 24/7. The program includes diagnostic-specific programs such as intensive outpatient programs that target substance use and eating disorders. Healthfirst is also making access easier for members via the use of telehealth as a vehicle for those who have difficulty attending appointments in person. Members who have been hospitalized receive support within the community during the initial post-hospitalization period to improve the potential success of connection to the next treatment component. These activities serve to increase the likelihood of the member maintaining and enhancing progress made in the hospital and decrease the risks of readmission. Healthfirst recognizes that many of those suffering from a mental illness or substance use disorders also have significant physical illnesses and psychosocial issues such as housing instability, unemployment and food insecurity. Through its care management program, Healthfirst provides care management, care coordination and navigation assistance to reduce gaps in care and improve health outcomes by facilitating access to preventive care, treatment and support services for both child and adult members. Healthfirst care managers with medical and behavioral health expertise work closely with members, families, providers, social service agencies and community based organizations to provide a unique, member-centric, integrated and holistic approach to care. Healthfirst‘s Behavioral Health Quality Improvement and Utilization Management committee monitors the quality and timeliness of such services/interventions to ensure outcomes that are consistent with both national and state benchmarks and internally established targets.
