We are Leading the Charge to Transform the System
Fee-for-Service 1960 Drivers of Cost
Fragmentation Lack of accountability & coordination Narrower focus of providers Waste; repetitive units 40 years of FFS

Common building blocks to drive transformation Driving change by rewarding and empowering PCPs
PAYMENT INNOVATION
moving from volume to value-based payment models.
DATA AND INSIGHTS
we empower providers by providing information, tools, practice support and resources to thrive under an outcome-based compensation model.
POPULATION HEALTH
promoting accountability and care coordination across the healthcare continuum to improve the overall health of the population.
PERSONALIZED CARE PLANS
we are providing the tools and strategies to help strengthen the doctor patient relationship, even outside of office visits. 4
Empowering Providers
Information
• Standard reports and advanced analytics • Risk stratification • Identifying gaps in care • Avoidable ER use • Brand vs. prescription drugs • Interpretive guidance
Tools
• Information Sharing • Toolkits for Enhanced Care Management • Practice Advisor tool by the American College of Physicians for PCMH evaluation • MMH+ • Advanced Longitudinal Patient Record
Resources
• Dedicated local Anthem resources with hands-on assistance for practices.
• Help with use of the new data, reports, and tools and support practice transformation • Guidance on appropriate toolkits and Anthem Care Management resources • We will meet providers where they are and help them move forward 5
Foundation: Defining the Population
• Attribution is the method we use to identify the provider’s patient population • It is the foundation for clinical coordination payments as well as shared savings calculations and payments.
There are two processes used for attribution depending on the product type: Open Access Products (PPO) Attribution is based on: historical claims data incurred in a 24-month period Products Requiring PCP Selection Attribution is based on: covered individuals selection during a 12-month period 6
Clinical Coordination Payments
• Clinical coordination payments
compensate primary care providers
for work such as preparing care plans for patients with multiple and complex chronic conditions, maintaining health registries, and following up with patients to ensure they understand and are following their treatment plan • • These activities
improve health
and
reduce costs
Upfront PMPM payments enable PCPs to invest in supporting infrastructure (outreach staff, IT) and
transform their practices
to manage the health of their patients • While a new form of payment for the physicians receiving them, these payments are included in our unit cost forecasts and are managed just like we manage fee schedule adjustments today 7
Provider Performance Payments (shared savings)
Shared savings
applies in
all of our Enhanced Personal Health Care arrangements.
These payments
reward PCPs
when they
successfully manage the quality
and
overall health care costs
for their
patient population
Quality metrics met Savings achieved
Provider group qualifies for shared savings payment
Amount of shared savings payment based on:
• Scores on
quality
of care and either
utilization and/or patient engagement
metrics – both designed to measure the impact of PCP activity.
• Total amount of
savings
calculated during the measurement period 8
How will ASO Customers Fund Provider Performance Payments?
▪ We will charge ASO customers a uniform, per-attributed member per-month (PaMPM) amount that we actuarially determine will cover shared savings payments.
▪ Because the cost of care varies by market and each program rolls out at a different time within each market the PaMPM will vary by program and by market to align with their unique expectations for that year. The PaMPM will be updated from year to year based on our experience and projections. ▪ The shared savings payment will appear on invoices alongside clinical coordination payments, listed under “other provider payments”.
▪ All funds collected will be used to pay shared savings payments to providers. ▪ Customers do not need to accrue anything.

What kind of savings might customers experience?
• We estimate that in their first year of participation, providers will generate savings that produce
1%-2% lower
than projected medical spend,
increasing to a cumulative 8%
by their third year of participation.
• The evidence tells us that patient-centered care saves money in several ways: Better management of chronic conditions like diabetes and asthma and better access to care resulting in reduced admissions and ER visits Care based on the best available clinical evidence – reducing waste in the system.
Value-based decisions by physicians, such as higher rates of generic drug substitutions, lowering the overall cost of prescription drugs.
Many factors, including the number of patients attributed to participating providers, and the length of time each provider has been participating in the program impacts the savings projections for any one customer .

Preliminary results
Enhanced Personal Health Care
$8.75 PaMPM (2%)
savings over first 3 quarters 1
Trends from providers indicate they are changing their practice behaviors.
Increased rates of provider visits post discharge Significant increase in referral to preferred lab (NY, NH, VA and OH) Greater number of weekend visits for attributed members Significant decrease in the number of the low intensity (potentially avoidable) ER visits (VA & OH) Improvement in Inpatient and ER utilization 1 Gross savings before provider gain share. Performance period (4/1/13 – 12/31/13). Per attributed member per month.

Measure the merits with value-based reporting.
Providing timely and evolving data on:
• Projected participation and savings • Quality, cost and patient experience • Targeted populations for improvement 12
