The Anthem Foundation works with non-profits across the U.S. to improve the health of our communities, teaming with organizations that are setting the standard when it comes to innovative programs that offer long-term solutions. A quick look at some of last year’s highlights illustrates how these non-profits are helping to reduce health disparities and empower local community residents to take control of their health:

A Message from Chairman, President and CEO Joseph R. Swedish

To Our Shareholders, Customers and Communities: At Anthem, we have a singular focus to improve the lives and health of the members and communities we serve. This is a commitment we have upheld for more than 75 years, and one that continues to guide our strategy, growth and success. 2015 was a year of tremendous change for our company, our industry and for health care consumers. More than ever, consumers are looking to us to help them navigate the complexities of health care and provide them with affordable, high-quality health benefit solutions. We truly embraced this responsibility last year, and our strong financial and operational results reflect our continued success in delivering on these important commitments.

Anthem remains focused on generating value for our customers and shareholders by expanding access, safeguarding affordability, improving quality and creating a more simplified and personalized health care experience for consumers. In 2015, we made meaningful progress on each of these fronts.

In terms of access, our goal is to help as many consumers as possible get and stay covered so they receive the care they need, when and where they need it. Our affiliated health plans deployed a diverse portfolio of products and services, and increased our membership by 1.1 million members, or 2.9 percent, over 2014. We now proudly serve more than 38.6 million members through individual and employer-sponsored plans and through the Medicare, Medicaid and Federal Employee Health Benefits programs. When you add in the members served by our specialty businesses and family of subsidiary companies, our work is directly and positively impacting the health of more than 72 million Americans nationwide.

Pete Haytaian, Executive Vice President and President, Government Business Division

As the head of Anthem’s government business division, Pete Haytaian works with his team to provide services and support to some of the most vulnerable people in the U.S.—individuals who are coping with complex conditions like multiple chronic diseases, homelessness and mental and emotional challenges. Many are elderly and disabled.

His team not only ensures that these members have access to high quality care, but also must operate effectively under the strict financial constraints of publicly funded programs.

“In the government space, you are really forced to contain costs while innovating and thinking through the complexity of managing the health of a population with a lot of challenges,” says Haytaian. “I call it ‘doing well by doing good’—operating successfully as a business while also meeting the needs of a vulnerable segment of society.”

“In this business in particular, you can see a dramatic impact on the quality of care by the little things—like helping a pregnant mom get her baby off to a healthy start in life,” he adds. “All of us on the team feel good knowing that we can help improve people’s lives in important ways.”

Anthem’s government business team is doing well by doing good on a large scale, growing by 600,000 new members in 2016. This represents an additional $5 billion in revenue for the year, which exceeded expectations. Anthem’s Medicaid teams won all six of the state Medicaid contracts they bid on in 2016.

compared to
22%

Anthem’s Medicare business is also well-positioned to meaningfully grow membership in 2017 and beyond, as the result of significant company investments over the past three years. In the most recent star quality ratings released by the federal government’s Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, Anthem’s Medicare Advantage 2017 plans scored significant increases—with nearly 51 percent of Anthem’s Medicare Advantage members enrolled in plans that achieved four stars or higher (on a scale of five stars). By comparison, 22 percent of members in 2016 were enrolled in plans that achieved four stars or higher.

The government business division’s growth comes as the Affordable Care Act (ACA) broadened Medicaid beyond the traditional focus on mothers and children to provide services to all non-elderly adults at or below 138 percent of federal poverty. The ACA also encouraged states to provide more social support services like housing and employment assistance.

“We’ve really moved beyond serving just medical needs to taking a holistic approach to member health,” Haytaian says. “We’re working to ensure community resources come together cohesively for members, because the lack of one of those services—like housing—can translate into further medical problems. Health care is a critical part of an interconnected web of social services that together can make a huge difference in the well-being of people and their communities.”

Dr. Sepideh Chegini, Regional Medical Director, CareMore

As more Americans age into Medicare benefits, CareMore is evolving to meet the health and wellness needs of the baby boomer generation and beyond. The coordinated care model that CareMore has created means that a wide range of medical professionals—from clinicians and lab technologists, to specialists and primary care physicians—are all collaborating on care plans for patients, thereby focusing on appropriate testing and ensuring that preventive care needs are met.

Dr. Sepideh Chegini, regional medical director for CareMore’s Los Angeles and Orange County operations, and her team work to better coordinate the care of what can be a population with complex health issues—some patients are still very active, while others are dealing with chronic conditions, and still others may not be appropriately managing multiple health issues and conditions. Dr. Chegini and her team work daily—in a highly coordinated and interactive manner—to improve the lives of the patients they see—and it is working. This is a model that Anthem is now incorporating into its Medicaid programs and individual health benefits.


Swati Mathai, Vice President, Account Management, National Accounts

Ever since she was studying for her master’s degree in public health, Swati Mathai has been fascinated by the vastly different expectations and levels of engagement consumers have with their medical care—there’s never a one-size-fits-all solution for how consumers want their health care delivered.

“What is quality health care, and what is a quality outcome? The answer is actually a very personal issue—it’s different for elite athletes compared to someone with complex medical conditions,” Mathai says. “Twenty years after my graduate studies, I’m still very passionate about helping people find their personal health care solutions.”

In her role as vice president of account management for Anthem’s national accounts, Mathai now helps some of the biggest companies in the U.S. create their own personalized approach to offering health care to their employees. Innovating to meet the needs of Fortune 500 companies is a big responsibility, but it’s one that Mathai and her team are well positioned to consistently deliver.

“Our account executives must know our companies inside and out to serve them well—we have to be closely tied into their business challenges and understand the environment in which they operate,” she says. “We’re helping customers solve for bigger problems beyond answering their customer calls and paying medical claims; we’re helping them gain a competitive advantage by offering benefits that attract and retain top talent while also controlling costs.”

For Kroger Co., parent of Harris Teeter, Ralphs, Kroger supermarkets, and several other banners, a key challenge is managing the health of some 150,000 associates in their company-sponsored health care plan spread across the country. The grocery business runs on tight margins, so cost management is a major priority. But Kroger’s workforce can’t shoulder high deductibles or other cost-shifting approaches typically used by many employers.

In response, Anthem’s recently launched integrated medical, dental and vision insurance program provided a unique opportunity to help Kroger identify and manage health issues at an early stage for its insured population before those issues spiraled into costly medical events. For example, if an ophthalmologist seeing a patient for an annual eye exam notices a high blood pressure reading, that information is flagged to the member’s primary care doctor—who can then get the member in for early treatment of high blood pressure before it leads to serious health issues.


19.4%

National Accounts represents 19.4% of Anthem's medical members as of December 31, 2016 (up from 19.1 percent in 2015)


7.8m

There were 7.8 million National Accounts members at the end of 2016, a 5.2 percent increase from 2015 (excluding BlueCard)


“What we’re starting to see with programs like this one is early identification of gaps in care or health issues so doctors can intervene, and intervene earlier,” Mathai says. “Improved healh and quality care will lead to lower cost of care, and better compliance around evidence-based guidelines.”

According to Mathai, programs that integrate benefits are just the beginning of a new era in managing health benefits in which payers can share information with providers to make critical early interventions and employers have new ways to measure outcomes and manage population health.

“The health care industry has been fragmented, but Anthem—as a leading provider of innovative health care solutions—can play a huge role in helping to make health care more personalized and effective for employers and consumers,” she says.

Aaron Person, Customer Care Representative

Health care is a complex industry. We can all use some help understanding the health benefits that can support us and our families through medical emergencies, chronic disease or routine preventive care. At Anthem, our front-line employees answer thousands of consumer questions a day and have the experience, expertise and knowledge to help them navigate their benefits.

Customer Care Representative Aaron Person is the voice of Anthem. He embodies Anthem values in every call he takes—easing concerns, resolving questions and guiding members through their health benefits, often at one of the most stressful times in the lives of members.


Veeneta Lakhani, Vice President, Provider Enablement

As Anthem’s vice president of provider enablement, Veeneta Lakhani is leading the company’s effort to work with providers who want to embrace payment transformation but also want a strong solutions partner to help ensure success.

Anthem has made collaboration with providers one of its highest strategic priorities. That strategy has grown beyond offering payment incentives that reward prevention and quality care, to a deeper collaboration in which we foster success by giving doctors and hospitals the support they need to thrive under those arrangements.

Shifting from a system that pays doctors for the volume of care they deliver to one that compensates them for the quality and efficiency of care they provide is not a small task. Anthem is providing doctors and hospitals with the tools and data they need to make this shift, but also prompting the cultural shifts that will make the transformation successful.

“We’re moving from being the payer of claims to the partner that provides solutions across the doctor’s patient base,” says Lakhani. “Provider groups vary dramatically in their level of experience and sophistication with value-based payment programs, so we have to come to the table and meet them where they are to help them on this transformational journey,” she adds.

For example, Anthem provides doctors participating in its value-based health care contracts with free software that flags patients’ missed follow up visits, prescription drug refills and other actionable information. A team of care consultants in every market works full time to help providers apply Anthem’s tools and technology, such as helping to create action plans to successfully identify and reach out to high-risk patients struggling to manage diabetes so that those patients stay healthy, manage blood sugar levels and avoid ER and hospital visits.


Participating provider practices showed fewer members admitted to the hospital:

6.1%

Fewer inpatient admits


3.4%

Fewer inpatient days


Lakhani and her team are constantly working to analyze member data so participating doctors can identify their high risk patients. In real time, the team can identify practices in which there are opportunities to close a care gap with a patient before it spirals into a major—and costly—medical crisis.

“Instead of leaving patients on their own to deal with the specialist and the labs and the pharmacy, value-based care is about making it easier for the patients to navigate the system—by connecting and coordinating that care,” Lakhani says. Enhanced Personal Health Care is Anthem's umbrella strategy covering all of our patient-centered care and value-based contracting initiatives.

Doctors participating in EPHC (and receiving value-based payments) had $14.08 per member per month, or 3.5 percent, in gross savings in medical costs compared to expected trend as of September 2015. That resulted in $11.34 per member per month in net savings.

Anthem’s family of health plans counts more than 64,000 doctors receiving value-based payments, and the company is committed to having 50 percent of its spending in shared savings and shared risk contracts by the end of 2018, up from more than 43 percent now.

The effort appears to be paying off for members and providers alike. Members who see a primary care doctor participating in Anthem’s value-based payment program rate their overall provider experience higher than members who see a doctor outside the program—noting that they have better communication and access to their doctor outside typical office hours. Their doctors are also more likely to deliver high quality care, making sure that patients get recommended preventive care, such as breast cancer screenings, diabetes eye exams, and measles, mumps and rubella vaccinations.

Sherry Dubester, Vice President, Behavioral Health and Clinical Programs

While opioids have helped millions of Americans manage pain, we are seeing how the abuse of these drugs can devastate lives, families and communities. Anthem is taking a more holistic approach to tackling health issues like the opioid epidemic impacting our communities, employing analytics and evidence-based therapies to provide consumers with a path toward health.

Sherry Dubester, vice president of Behavioral Health and Clinical Programs, and her team are taking these successful strategies and applying them to address other significant public health concerns, such as diabetes, cancer care, behavioral health and wellness.


Corporate Responsibility

At Anthem, we are committed to being a responsible corporate citizen—by improving our company’s environmental sustainability, and by supporting health and well-being programs in the communities we serve. In these and many other ways, we demonstrate the values that are at the heart of good corporate citizenship.

The Anthem Foundation works with non-profits across the U.S. to improve the health of our communities, teaming with organizations that are setting the standard when it comes to innovative programs that offer long-term solutions. A quick look at some of last year’s highlights illustrates how these non-profits are helping to reduce health disparities and empower local community residents to take control of their health:

  • Anthem Foundation’s partnership with the American Heart Association helped more than five million Americans learn Hands-Only CPR.
  • Our Foundation’s grant to the American Cancer Society provided more than 46,000 low or no cost cancer screenings to populations at greatest risk.
  • Anthem’s CenteringPregnancy grant to the March of Dimes programs to reduce preterm births reached 6,600 women across the U.S.


Our own associates are living our values beyond the workplace—in the communities where they live and work—donating more than 55,000 volunteer hours to benefit countless nonprofits in 2016. On Giving Tuesday—a global campaign on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving that kicks off the charitable giving season and end-of-year philanthropic efforts—associates raised $431,000 in support of community and other initiatives.

Anthem, our associates and the Anthem Foundation maintained more than $40 million in open community activity with nonprofits across the U.S.

Anthem is also focused on mitigating the impact our business has on the world around us through smart energy programs, water conservation and waste reduction. We have made significant progress since 2013—reducing our workplace paper use by 16 percent, lowering greenhouse gas emissions intensity by 18 percent, and decreasing water use by 28 percent—and we’ve set even higher goals in the years ahead.

Anthem recognizes the link between environmental health and personal wellness. To promote local, more sustainable food options, we established mini farmers markets for associates at larger Anthem locations. And we launched Anthem Hydration Stations to encourage our associates to drink more water. To help reduce auto emissions, we are currently piloting 10 electric vehicle charging stations at Anthem office locations with plans to add more this year.
