Clover Health PPO Medicare Advantage Plans Earn 4 Star Rating for 2025

FRANKLIN, Tenn., Oct. 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Clover Health Investments, Corp. (Nasdaq: CLOV) (“Clover,” “Clover Health” or the “Company”), today announced that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) has increased the Star rating of its PPO Medicare Advantage (“MA”) plans to 4 Stars for 2025, which will affect payment year 2026. Additionally, CMS increased the rating of Clover’s HMO MA plan to 3.5 Stars. Currently, over 95% of Clover’s Medicare Advantage membership is served through its PPO plans.

Each year CMS rates every plan on its healthcare quality and drug plan, and issues a Star rating on a scale of 1 to 5 Stars. For this measurement year, Clover’s overall Star rating was driven by the Company’s exceptional performance across a number of measures including Medication Adherence, the Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (“HEDIS”), and Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (“CAHPS”). Clover earned an impressive 4.94 out of 5 Stars on HEDIS in particular, which is a set of performance measures quantifying a plan’s ability to deliver preventative screenings and comprehensively manage a range of health issues including diabetes, cancer, and heart disease.

“At Clover Health, our mission is centered around improving healthcare outcomes for our members, and our 4-Star CMS rating reaffirms our commitment to this goal,” said Andrew Toy, CEO of Clover Health. “Our investment in quality far exceeds industry standards, as demonstrated by our exceptional HEDIS score. By leveraging the power of Clover Assistant technology, we’re empowering physicians with real-time insights that directly enhance the quality of care through better preventive services and care coordination. We will continue prioritizing these efforts to drive impactful, long-term health improvements for our members.”

“What we’ve been able to accomplish with this year’s Star ratings is a manifestation of the foundational improvements we’ve built over the last several years,” said Jamie Reynoso, CEO of Medicare Advantage, Clover Health. “With a higher Star rating, we are able to further reinvest in more competitive benefits, which we believe will deliver greater value to our members while fueling continued membership growth. This milestone allows us to scale our impact to more people on Medicare without compromising our financial strength or commitment to care quality.”
