Managed Care Enrollment Still Falling

Enrollment among 20 of the nation’s leading managed care plans fell another 1% to 125 million in the second quarter of 2009, compared to a year earlier, according to a CRG tally.  Fully funded membership — which accounts for the bulk of health plan profits — made up 47.1% of the total, down from 47.6%.  (The figures don’t include consumer-directed health plan membership, which CRG tallies separately).  If healthcare reform is going to mean a big increase in managed care membership, the industry had better hope for reform sooner rather than later.
