Managed Care

This segment includes the company’s health plans which comprise all the functions that are needed to operate them. It provides individuals with health plan coverage—this is done through government-subsidized as well as commercial programs. 

Managed care is the largest revenue contributor of Centene Corp. Revenue from this segment was the highest in Q3 2021 at $30.889 billion. The lowest revenue recorded was in Q4 2020. On average, this segment contributes approximately 86-87% to the revenue total. YoY growth from Q3 2020 to 2021 was 10.26%. QoQ decline from Q3 to Q4 2020 was 1.06%, and the QoQ growth from Q4 2020 to Q1 2021 was 3.19%.

In the third quarter of 2021, the company’s total revenue marked a YoY increase of 10%. This was due to the growth of Medicaid membership which resulted from eligibility redeterminations’ suspension, membership growth in the Medicare business, the commencement of their contracts in North Carolina, and their recently acquired Circle Health. This was partially offset by the health insurer fee being repealed. 

Specialty Services

It comprises Centene Corp’s specialty companies that offer varied, auxiliary healthcare products and services to their other segment i.e. the Managed Care segment, along with other external customers.

This segment’s total revenue increased by 25% from Q3 2020 to 2021. This mainly resulted from new business acquisitions which include PANTHERx, increased services related to Managed Care segment’s membership growth, and their correctional business’ newly awarded contracts. This was, in part, offset by the pharmacy contract’s expiration with their Illinois health plan that was previously divested.

The fourth quarter of 2020 grossed the highest revenue from the above-given timeline. The lowest revenue recorded was in the previous quarter (Q3 2020) at $3.774 billion. QoQ growth from Q3 to Q4 2020 was a decent 31.21%, and the decline from Q4 2020 to Q1 2021 was 13.8%. Revenue grew year-over-year by 25.25% (from Q3 2020 to 2021).
