Humana Inc. Updates Medicare Advantage Enrollment Projection and 2023 EPS

Humana Inc. expects individual Medicare Advantage enrollment growth of approximately 100,000 members for 2024, reflecting a 1.8 percent increase over 2023. The company's cautious pricing strategy resulted in lower new member sales and higher attrition than expected during the annual election period (AEP). Medical cost trends, particularly higher inpatient and non-inpatient utilization, led to a higher-than-expected full-year 2023 Adjusted Insurance segment benefit ratio of approximately 88.0 percent. As a result, Humana revised its full-year 2023 GAAP EPS to approximately $20.00 and Adjusted EPS to approximately $26.09. The company is assessing the impact of these trends on its 2024 outlook.
