HealthLeaders-InterStudy's Managed Market Surveyor-Rx examines how medicine and pharmacy are covered lives nationally, state and levels of MSA
NASHVILLE, Tenn., May 11 / PRNewswire / - HealthLeaders-InterStudy, the leading provider of managed care on the market, reports that the 15 largest Blue Cross Blue Shield brand and managed care organizations collectively lost more than a million States, between January 2008 and July 2008. According to data available in the Managed Market Surveyor-Rx, the largest of 15 managed care organizations that bear the blue mark, eight organizations reported a decline in total medical school enrollment. Blue Shield of California and Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey were among the brand Blue Shield medical plans posting for inclusion on the loss of the first half of 2008.
"Blue Cross and Blue Shield brand plans generally dominate the markets in which they operate, and have consistently shown the strongest growth compared to the non-inclusion Blue plans. However, we see that the Blue plans have lost members of aggressive pricing of national insurance. In addition, insurers have worked to develop their networks of suppliers, making them more competitive, "said Jane DuBose, Director of Health Plan Analysis for HealthLeaders-InterStudy." In light of the recession We expect enrollment trends will continue. "
Enrollment data management market Surveyor-Rx plan describes the type and financing including commercial lives (HMO, PPO, consumer-driven), Medicaid / Medicare and fully self-insured.
