Financial Performance

3 Insights

Total revenues increased by 10.7% year-over-year to $29.6 billion, driven by a 13.8% increase in Medicare premiums. However, net income decreased by 40.3% to $739 million due to increased benefit expenses and operating costs.

The consolidated benefit ratio increased from 85.5% to 88.9%, reflecting higher Medicare Advantage medical cost trends. This indicates that a larger portion of premiums is being used to cover healthcare costs.

Investment income increased by 49.2% to $288 million, driven by higher interest income on debt securities. This suggests effective management of the investment portfolio and a favorable interest rate environment.
