FRANKLIN, Tenn., June 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clover Health Investments, Corp. (NASDAQ: CLOV) (“Clover,” “Clover Health” or the “Company”), a physician enablement technology company committed to bringing access to great healthcare to everyone on Medicare, today announced that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) has recalculated the 2024 Star Ratings of Clover Health’s PPO Medicare Advantage (“MA”) plans for the 2025 payment year, and has increased the rating by 0.5 Stars, to a revised rating of 3.5 Stars, from the original rating of 3 Stars. Currently, over 95% of Clover’s Medicare Advantage membership is served through its PPO plans.

“We are very pleased CMS has recalculated and improved our Star rating for the 2025 payment year,” said Andrew Toy, Chief Executive Officer of Clover Health. "This new development is a testament to the high quality of our MA plans and makes me incredibly optimistic about our go-forward strategy, including our ability to maintain the foundation of strong financial performance we have built over the last year, while bolstering our ability to further scale our Insurance line of business via a strong product offering. Most importantly, an increased Star rating allows us to improve the benefits our members receive, which is always our priority.”

“We had previously communicated and planned to operate with a 3.0 Star rating for our PPO plans for 2025. This recalculation to 3.5 Stars significantly improves our financial outlook for next year. We believe the improvement provides us with the opportunity to accelerate our membership growth while maintaining and growing profitability,” said Peter Kuipers, Chief Financial Officer of Clover Health.

Today’s announcement relates to the 2022 measurement year, which corresponds to the 2025 payment year, for Clover Health’s PPO MA plans. Every year, Medicare evaluates plans based on a 5-star rating system.
