10  Why Enter the Exchange/Commercial Markets? ◦ Business objectives ◦ Risk considerations  Innovative Plan Approach

11  Diversify revenues  Better serve our provider partners  Better serve our current member families  Open new markets to MA offerings ◦ PEBB Retirees ◦ OEBB Retirees ◦ Federal Employees Health Plan Retirees

12  New Risks ◦ Elimination of Pre-existing conditions ◦ Merging of high risk pool ◦ Coverage expansion and pent up demand for services

15  Cover Oregon allows carriers to offer plans that demonstrate innovation through the use of networks, wellness programs, or other options that do not include premiums or benefits.  ATRIO will offer an innovative plan designed to exclude from the cost of coverage those treatments that, proven through evidence-based medicine, do not improve the health status of the patient. Our Pioneer Plans are modeled after the OHP Prioritized List and are referred to as Evidence-Based Health Plans.

16  Under 65  Most already have some sort of coverage  Kids  Some very sick, some acute, some who don’t use any services  Not as much medical management as Medicare and Medicaid  Expecting small enrollment in 2014

17  Provider networks / contracting ◦ PPO “wrap” networks  Leverage existing ATRIO network  First Health (regional)  Multi-Plan (national)

18  Different timeliness and Prior Auth rules than Medicare and Medicaid ◦ Standard Plans - See attached PPO Authorization List ◦ Pioneer Plans - See attached EPO Authorization List  Formulary ◦ MedImpact will continue to support our formulary management. There will be 1 formulary for all plans. PA Criteria may differ depending on adherence to preferred list.  Delegation ◦ ATRIO will continue to partner with the SACs for Case Management, Disease Management, Transitions of Care and other QA programs.

19  Quality Assurance is a component with several requirements from both Cover Oregon.  Much of this is not yet defined  The plan must have some form of accreditation. ◦ ATRIO has chosen to become URAC Accredited.  This is the easier one ◦ All of this will leverage many programs and policies already in place.

20  ATRIO website changes to accommodate under-65 products and links to Cover Oregon  Companion educational website: www.OregonHealthAnswers.org
