1 10 Vital Questions to Ask When Negotiating for a Health Insurance Marketplace Solution from Technology Integration & Implementation Vendors Is there an existing ACA compliant Healthcare System for Public & Private Marketplaces that is currently operational and cost effective? An Industry Report By Mason Grigsby & Jim Minihan mason@imergeconsult.com jim@imergeconsult.com
2 Preface Faced with the ACA challenges, some of the common questions asked by Health Insurance Company C-level executives include; We need a high performance ACA Health Care Solution that can operate error free and has the ability to connect seamlessly to any Health Care entity Federal, State, Consumer, Payer, Broker, or Navigator. I want the system to be available now for a reasonable cost. Not $134 million, not $78 million, it means $1million or less. It must be a complete solution for Launching, Connecting and Operating within all Insurance Marketplaces Consumers, Brokers, Exchanges, and Navigators. The system should offer Eligibility and Enrollment, Plan Management, Premium Billing and Account Management. It must have a customer facing self - service portal for Exchange/Marketplace access, Member and Government Billing, Claims Pricing and Processing, Easy Correction and Updates, automated control over Processes, Network/Website Performance, and Manual Processing Reconciliation with Exception Reporting and data analytics including revenue projections from Federal subsidies. So, What Are the Major Healthcare Insurance Market Challenges That Must Be Overcome? The market is littered with failed systems owed to poor architectures and lack of understanding of the business operational issues. A proper system should require no in-house staff to manage software or hardware and the cost should consist of a single up-front implementation fee ($1M or less) with only an ongoing member transaction fee, based on the membership count. Page 2 of 12
3 The Key Issues in an Error Free ACA Marketplace Platform 1. Upfront Implementation and Ongoing Cost; 2. Time to Implement; 3. Seamless Data Interchange with Federal and State Based Marketplaces; 4. Elastic Scalability to Meet Business Demand; 5. Data Verification & Reconciliation; 6. Connectivity to an Insurer s Dispersed Disparate Systems; 7. Effective Invoicing, Payment Processing, Reconciliation, and Exception Handling; 8. Timely Member Effectuation with Insurer s Admin Systems and CMS; 9. Accurate Edge Server implementation for Risk Adjustment and Re-Insurance; and 10. Monitoring and reporting of key performance indicators. The features of an integrated system should include: Streamlined Implementation without the need to replace or modify current IT systems Connectivity to all Health Care Exchanges and government entities. Automatic updating to databases without keying of data from a paper form to reduce labor costs Member Verification and Data Correction capabilities, including reconciliation and exceptions, claims management, delinquencies, partial payments, refunds, bad debt and reporting. The system provides a low cost payment portal for credit card and ACH transactions. Premium Billing, Payments, and Adjustments, error and omission controls, two party billing, member & government billing and correction capability with payment reconciliation and Broker commission calculations & payment.

Business rules include; Enrollment Span Validates claim was processed and approved during the time that the member had health insurance coverage Duplicate Claim Prevent processing of duplicate claims Enrollment to Claims Reconciliation Ensure that data within claims records can be fully reconciled against enrollment #10 Are there any Cloud Based ACA Platforms in Production Operating Successfully? Many Health Insurers use cloud based platforms for ACA integration and implementation. In 2014, 22 health plans have selected Softheon MC2 for Federal and State Marketplaces, including Coordinated Care Health, Buckeye Community Health Plan, NovaSys Health, Sunshine State Health Plan, Magnolia Health, MHS, Total Health Care, Florida Healthcare Plans, First Care, Community Care of Oklahoma, Care Oregon, ATRIO, Community First Health Plans, and more. Gesinger Health, Delta Dental, and Coventry have selected hcentive webinsure as the cloud based marketplace platform. Page 9 of 12
10 Vendor Evaluation In 2014, a growing number of healthcare payers are reporting outsourcing or considering outsourcing for member and provider transactions (enrollment, claims, customer service, etc.). In addition, although most health plans will focus much of their current energy on Web delivery; the marketplace interface must be an integrated, multichannel initiative, which will be required indefinitely. The ACA compliant Public and Private Marketplace implementation is not a specific technology or application, but it is a corporate strategy that must support activities such as: Product design, QHP certification assessment, comparison and selection Administrative transactions (for example, eligibility, enrollment, premium billing, payment processing, and demographic updates) Financial transactions (for example, Non-Sufficient Fund NSF, partial payment, etc. which may trigger ACA Delinquency and Termination transactions) Decision modeling and reporting tools Vendor product evolution s h o u l d b e focused on integration, data standards and transaction management, rather than presentation. Vendors that focus on above strategies and healthcare payers that adopt vendor solutions that support data integration and interfaces between applications and the presentation layer will be in the best position to support Public and Private Exchange strategies. The ACA compliant vendor landscape includes new comers such as hcentive, Benaissance, and NFP Health, as well as mainstream vendors such as BenefitFocus, Connecture, ikasystem, DST Solutions and Trizetto. However, Softheon Marketplace Connector Cloud (MC2) is the most innovative marketplace platform with the most ACA installed base. Softheon Softheon MC2 is a Software as a Service (SaaS) cloud solution that is ready to plug into your environment. This means you avoid the capital costs of server hardware and software along with the operational cost of maintaining staff to operate it. The MC2 Cloud server is backed by over 14 years of experience in Health Insurance Process Management with 40 systems across the U.S. A cloud solution offers a unique opportunity to limit risk and contain costs with a proven plugin system. Softheon MC2 ACA Cloud Solution Organizations are searching for packaged software, such as Softheon MC2, to provide a full, operationally proven solution. They want to speed u p the customer service process, cement the relationships between the organization and the consumer, as well as sell additional products to their existing customer base. MC2 provides seamless access to information by dynamically linking any computer, document image, , check image or text document in a virtual, electronic file folder, making that file available anywhere, anytime.

12 Conclusion Today s ACA systems operate with incomplete information -- islands of technology exist that do not communicate with each other. Information is electronically unavailable, unreliable, error prone or inaccessible in another digital repository. This translates to significant errors in enrollment, billing mistakes, increased telephone and labor costs due to subscriber callbacks. It also means fewer revenue generating opportunities due to a lack of accurate marketplace data and the analytical tools needed to evaluate your business.. Healthcare payers will spend considerable time and money on interim piece-meal applications that support disjointed ACA marketplace interfaces. Softheon MC2 is an integrated cloud-based platform. Marketplace members, employers, and brokers will be provided with increasing information, but that information will be fragmented and incomplete. Softheon MC2 Member, Employer, and Broker web portals are unified and access the same source of truth repositories. There is no data latency or inaccuracy due to data replication. Multi-channel integration across Public and Private Exchanges will continue to be a challenge for Health Insurers. Industrywide, member information required to support defined contribution will not be fully or easily supported. Softheon MC2 includes health insurers using the platform for ACA Federal and State Based Marketplaces. Few vendors focus on product designs that are consumer driven. The nation s first fully operational state exchange has been using Softheon MC2 since 2008, serving over 200,000 consumers. Softheon MC2 is designed for marketplaces as a result of collaboration between government and health plans. Initial revenues will come from ACA consumer acquisitions and shift consumer behavior based on new data resources that help consumers make better choices. Softheon MC2 supports health plan s marketplace strategies, generating new revenue opportunities but also managing the risk through partnership and integration capabilities.
