MedImpact Holds 2016 Annual Trend to 2.9 Percent Overall Trend 2.9% Traditional Drug Trend -0.7% MedImpact, an independent, trend-focused PBM, held its 2016 overall annual trend to a mere 2.9 percent PMPM. Trend for traditional drugs actually decreased overall, coming in at -0.7 percent. Specialty drug trend was 10 percent in 2016. Specialty products represented only 0.7 percent of claim volume, but accounted for 36 percent of total spend. Specialty Trend 10.0% Copyright 2017 MedImpact Healthcare Systems, Inc.

Low-Net Cost: A Different Kind of Trend Management Healthcare continues to be one of the most dynamic industries, and has become a primary focal point in the United States, given the current political landscape. Even as the future direction of healthcare is uncertain, plan sponsors are experiencing numerous market dynamics impacting budgets in the area of pharmacy benefits. Recent market trends demonstrate rising drug costs stem from a variety of factors, primarily: Market entry of high-cost, innovative specialty drugs Inflation of drug prices as set by manufacturers The past three years have brought significant and expensive drugs to market. Market entry of high-cost innovative specialty drugs brings blockbuster drugs, requiring plan sponsors to develop new strategies in response. The growth of the specialty drug market is reshaping the industry, and has a huge impact to plan sponsor budgets. Half of the top 10 specialty pharmacies by market share are owned by PBMs and plan sponsors, with the top two specialty pharmacies owned by PBMs with a combined market share of nearly 50 percent. i Plan sponsors, PBMs and manufacturers are narrowing the number of dispensing pharmacies for high-cost specialty drugs. Plan sponsors and PBMs that own specialty pharmacies are narrowing access to their owned specialty pharmacies. Manufacturers also provide hubs that control dispensing, or may restrict dispensing to as few as one specialty pharmacy for drugs requiring close management.

Low-Net Cost: A Different Kind of Trend Management Highly Managed Specialty Drug Utilization: MedImpact is Different Drug Price Inflation In other big news for healthcare, headlines over the past year regarding drug prices and their impact to plan sponsors and patients alike have driven much debate over who is at the center of the drug price increases. While manufacturers set drug prices, as a trend-focused PBM, MedImpact s response is to monitor drug price increases regularly, and implement strategies to help manage client impact of increasing costs. While innovator drugs have the potential to steal the spotlight, older, established drugs have caused a stir in pharmacy, as drug prices have been inflated by manufacturers as competition in the generic market increases. With the cost of those medications rising rapidly, it s no surprise many plan sponsors are feeling the financial impact of price increases. MedImpact provides access to specialty and Limited Distribution Drugs through a unique model using specialty fulfillment pharmacies channeled through One Source, or a single brand, MedImpact Direct. MedImpact Direct manages high-cost specialty drug dispensing per plan sponsor guidelines via prescription-level utilization management, enforcing formulary and utilization management guidelines among highly managed, select specialty pharmacies. In addition to continually monitoring drug prices, with a strategy focused on low-net cost, we implement contracting strategies to help ensure our clients are protected from drug price inflation as much as possible by driving low-net cost. MedImpact is highly focused on the budget impact of these high-cost drugs. It is more important than ever to understand what drugs are in the clinical pipeline for Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval, and the potential budget impact those new agents will have on plan sponsors. Beyond knowing what is in the pipeline, plan sponsors must develop strategies in advance of product launch to help ensure budget impact is held to a minimum. New for 2017, MedImpact is providing quarterly Clinical Pipeline and Budget Impact Modeling Spotlight Service Webinars to assist plan sponsors in developing strategies to help manage utilization once products are launched. MedImpact is also keeping close watch on biosimilars, which have the potential to bring down costs on biologics. Copyright 2017 MedImpact Healthcare Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. 5

Low-Net Cost: A Different Kind of Trend Management Trends for Brand & Generics: Cost & Utilization Cost Per 30-Day Supply/Rx Increases Across All Lines of Business Line of Business/ Market Segment Specialty Status Drug Type % Change Total Cost per 30-Day Supply Traditional Generic 0.53% Traditional Brand 11.39% Specialty Generic 31.76% Specialty Brand 13.06% Commercial Traditional Specialty Generic -3.21% Brand 11.05% Generic 15.06% Brand 10.25% Commercial Total 7.09% While overall total cost per 30-day supply increased 4.02 percent, the cost for generics went down slightly in the traditional category for Commercial and Medicare lines of business. On a percentage basis, the highest cost change was evidenced in the specialty generic category, driven largely by the introduction of a generic version of Gleevec (imatinib mesylate) in 2016. While the average cost per 30-day supply increased at the highest rate in our Medicare line of business, overall increase in cost per 30-day supply was held in check at 1.40 percent, driven largely by improvements to generic dispensing rate. Of the three lines of business reported, our Medicaid line of business saw the highest percentage growth in the specialty category. This was driven primarily by aggressive uptake of generic Gleevec in 2016, which is priced higher than the average specialty generic product, leading to an overall 31.71 percent trend per 30-day supply in the specialty generic category. Medicaid s specialty brand increase of 19.99 percent was driven largely by patient conversions to newer HIV agents, as well as price inflation in the inflammatory condition and growth hormone categories.

Top 10 Classes Trend Drivers for the Top 10 Therapeutic Classes Drug Price is Driving Trend: Overall utilization for the top 10 drug classes decreased, while prices increased Diabetes: Top PMPY for 2016: Insulins made up 55 percent of total spend within the category Hepatitis C: Although utilization and unit cost are both down for Hepatitis C in 2016, it still remains in the top five for PMPY spend with Harvoni leading the spend within the category Inflammatory disease drove the largest cost increase at 19.5 percent, with HIV, oncology and anticoagulants rounding out the top four at 14.9 percent. While diabetes was not the highest trend driver, the class had the highest per member per year (PMPY) spend at $169.32 PMPY, followed by inflammatory disease and asthma/chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD). As would be expected, following the original launch of curative Hepatitis C agents, utilization in 2016 decreased 5 percent over 2015, and cost decreased 1.6 percent, bringing total trend down 6.5 percent for the class. Top five therapeutic classes by cost increase 19.5% Inflammatory Disease 17.2% HIV 16.7% Oncology 15.2% Anticoagulants 10.7% Diabetes Top four therapeutic classes by total trend 16.5% Inflammatory Disease 16.2% Oncology 14.9% Anticoagulants Did You Know?

The Top 10 Therapeutic Classes Trend Components for Top 10 Therapeutic Classes by PMPY Spend Overall Change in Top 10 Therapeutic Classes from 2015 to 2016 Trend Components Rank Therapeutic Class Utilization Unit Cost Total 1 Diabetes 2.2% 8.3% 10.7% 2 Inflammatory disease -2.5% 19.5% 16.5% 3 Asthma/COPD -1.4% 6.2% 4.7% 4 Oncology -0.4% 16.7% 16.2% 5 Hepatitis C -5.0% -1.6% -6.5% 6 HIV -9.3% 17.2% 6.3% 7 Attention disorder -3.4% -3.4% -6.7% 8 Multiple sclerosis -5.3% 6.7% 1.0% 9 High blood pressure -1.7% 3.1% 1.4% 10 Anticoagulants -0.3% 15.2% 14.9% Other therapeutic classes -0.8% -1.7% -2.6% Total -1.1% 4.0% 2.9% 2016 Rank 2015 Rank Therapeutic Class 1 1 Diabetes 2 2 Inflammatory disease 3 3 Asthma/COPD 4 5 Oncology 5 4 Hepatitis C 6 6 HIV 7 7 Attention disorder 8 8 Multiple sclerosis 9 9 High blood pressure 10 12 Anticoagulants There were three category changes in the top 10 from 2015 to 2016. Oncology moved from number five in 2015 to number four, as utilization for Hepatitis C slowed, bringing it to number five in 2016. Anticoagulants moved up from number 12 in 2015 to number 10 in 2016.

Diabetes Top Therapeutic Class Detail PMPY Spend $169.32 Utilization 2.2% Unit Cost 8.3% Total Trend 10.7% Top five brand drugs within each class by % PMPY spend Market Perspectives Price Inflation and Rising Utilization Diabetes affects nearly 9 percent of the U.S. population, and although incidence seems to be decreasing, prevalence remains steady. Of the top 10 traditional brands, diabetes drugs accounted for 40 percent of the list. Although insulin still dominates the class in PMPY spend, Januvia, a DPP4 inhibitor, accounted for 9 percent of brand spend in diabetes. Insulin unit-cost increase was 5.3 percent in 2016, and made up 55 percent of PMPY spend in diabetes. Insulin utilization increased slightly at 0.2 percent overall, with double-digit increases in the specific therapeutic classes, SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP 1 agonist. Forecast for Diabetes In December 2016, Basaglar (insulin glargine) was approved. We anticipate this having an impact on the diabetes market in 2017. There is potential for trend to decrease in 2017 if price inflation is held or decreased due to competition. MedImpact is tracking the FDA s anticipated decision on Merck s follow-on to Lantus in June. If it is approved, this will increase competition in the market for diabetes drugs. This could potentially create a better environment for rebate negotiations, leading to lower cost in this category. All Others Victoza (liraglutide) Januvia (sitagliptin) Lantus (insulin glargine) HumaLog (insulin lispro) NovaLog (insulin aspart) Utilization of DPP4 inhibitors in diabetes is far greater than other branded agents, outside of insulin, and is expected to maintain this level of utilization. Expect to see more utilization for SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1 agonists due to clinical data showing benefits in morbidity and mortality. These new drugs could significantly increase costs in this therapeutic class. Copyright 2017 MedImpact Healthcare Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. 11

Top Therapeutic Class Detail Inflammatory disease PMPY Spend $96.03 Utilization -2.5% Unit Cost 19.5% Total Trend 16.5% Top five brand drugs within each class by % PMPY spend Market Perspectives It is no surprise that in 2016, Humira and Enbrel accounted for 68.6 percent of PMPY spend for inflammatory diseases. The third branded agent in inflammatory disease, Stelara, accounted for 5.25 percent of PMPY spend in 2016. One oral agent, Otezla, was the fourth branded agent and accounted for 2.8 percent of PMPY spend. Forecast for Inflammatory Disease The promise of biosimilars Biosimilars are biologic products that are similar to their reference product, but not guaranteed to be identical. In 2016, the FDA approved Erelizi, a biosimilar to Enbrel, and Amjevita, a biosimilar to Humira, but neither are currently available on the market. These biosimilars are currently tied up in patent litigation, and will be delayed until 2018 or longer, as indicated by the respective manufacturers. All Others Orencia (abatacept) Otezla (apremilast) Stelara (ustekinumab) Humira (adalimumab) Psoriasis and Rheumatoid Arthritis In 2017, more agents are expected to be introduced to the market for Plaque Psoriasis and Rheumatoid Arthritis to compete with current branded agents. Additional JAK inhibitors and biologics targeting IL-23, IL-17 and IL-6 are currently under review for approval at the FDA. Enbrel (etanercept) Copyright 2017 MedImpact Healthcare Systems, Inc.

Oncology Top Therapeutic Class Detail PMPY Spend $79.49 Utilization -0.5% Unit Cost 16.7% Total Trend 16.2% Top five brand drugs within each class by % PMPY spend All Others Revlimid (lenalidomide) Ibrance (palbociclib) Imbruvica (ibrutinib) Market Perspectives In 2016, the majority of research activity in oncology was on the medical side with immunologic therapies like the PD-1 antibodies, Keytruda and Opdivo. In 2016, Revlimid accounted for 18 percent of the total PMPY spend on the pharmacy benefit. Although Ibrance only accounted for 7.5 percent of total PMPY spend, utilization increased 171.3 percent in 2016. Imbruvica accounted for 7.2 percent of spend and Gleevec accounted for 6.2 percent. ii Forecast for Oncology In 2016, Gleevec went generic, and will drop out of the top-branded agents spend category in 2017 for oncology. There is no foreseeable competition for Revlimid in 2017, so it will likely continue to be the top-branded agent for PMPY spend in oncology. An agent similar to Ibrance is currently under review at the FDA, and could provide some competition, although indication would be slightly more limited. An agent similar to Imbruvica, but touted to have less side effects, may be reviewed by the FDA some time in 2017 or 2018. New treatments known as CAR (chimeric antigen receptors) T-cell therapy may be introduced into the market in 2017, which hold the promise as a potential cure in select cancers. These agents will be on the medical benefit, and the price tag will undoubtedly be high, with companies quoting benchmark prices of $300,000 to $900,000 for a single, one-time infusion.

Top Therapeutic Class Detail Hepatitis C PMPY Spend $67.13 Utilization -5.0% Unit Cost -1.6% Total Trend -6.5% Top five brand drugs within each class by % PMPY spend Zepatier (elbasvir/ grazoprevir) Epclusa (sofosbuvir/ velpatasvir) Daklinza (daclatasvir) All Others Harvoni (ledipasvir/sofosbuvir) Market Perspectives Although utilization and unit cost are both down for Hepatitis C in 2016, it still remains in the top five for PMPY spend with Harvoni leading the spend within the category. Decreasing Utilization Following the initial uptake of curative, blockbuster drugs, as anticipated, there was a decrease in overall utilization of Hepatitis C agents. By the end of 2016, the PMPM spend fell by nearly 50 percent of its peak within the two-year span. Forecast for Hepatitis C MedImpact anticipates that utilization will continue to drop as more patients are cured. However, new treatments will address patients who have failed previous treatments, which could affect utilization and cost in this category. Hepatitis C: Total Cost PMPM, Last 24 Months $16.00 $14.00 $12.00 $10.00 $8.00 Sovaldi (sofosbuvir) $6.00 $4.00 $2.00 $0.00 1/15 4/15 8/15 12/15 1/16 4/16 8/16 12/16 Medicare Medicaid Commercial Copyright 2017 MedImpact Healthcare Systems, Inc.

HIV Top Therapeutic Class Detail PMPY Spend $64.92 Utilization -9.3% Unit Cost 17.2% Total Trend 6.3% Top five brand drugs within each class by % PMPY spend Truvada (emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate) Market Perspectives State and federal requirements for coverage of HIV medications can make utilization management challenging. In 2016, Truvada accounted for 16.5 percent of PMPY spend in HIV, and is currently the only regimen approved for pre-exposure propylaxis (PrEP). PrEP is a way for people who do not have HIV, but are at substantial risk of getting it, to prevent HIV infection by taking a pill every day. One tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) based product, Genvoya, accounted for 7.3 percent of PMPY spend. Forecast for HIV In 2015 and 2016, several products were introduced to the market that effectively replaced older branded products that contained tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) with new branded products that contain tenofovir alafenamide (TAF).These TAF based products are believed to have an improved safety profile. We anticipate that the use of these TAF-based products will eventually overtake the use of the TDF products. Descovy is the TAF-based regimen that is similar to Truvada, but is not indicated for PrEP.

Top Therapeutic Class Detail Multiple Sclerosis PMPY Spend $51.84 Utilization -5.3% Unit Cost 6.7% Total Trend 1.0% Top five brand drugs within each class by % PMPY spend Market Perspectives Although competition to Copaxone 20mg was introduced in June of 2015, the manufacturer was able to maintain market share of their marquee product by converting patients to Copaxone 40mg that was dosed less frequently and priced at parity. Overall, utilization decreased in the Multiple Sclerosis class, particularly with the use of interferons in 2016 compared to 2015. ii Forecast for Multiple Sclerosis A generic competitor for Copaxone 40mg is currently under review by the FDA, and could potentially impact trend in the Multiple Sclerosis market in 2017 to 2018. The market anticipates that the FDA will approve a new treatment for Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis, which currently has no approved treatments. This new intravenous agent would most likely be approved through the medical benefit.

Top 10 Traditional Drugs Trend Components for Top 10 Traditional Drug Therapies by PMPY Spend ii From 2015 to 2016 Lantus SoloStar, Advair Diskus, Lantus, and Januvia have all remained in the top four positions by PMPY spend, with diabetes accounting for three of the top four. Lantus and Advair Diskus switched places in the top three, and Januvia moved from fifth position to fourth. Lyrica jumped from number seven to the top five. Eliquis made an appearance in the top 10 for 2016. The biggest change on the list was the drop for Crestor from fourth position to number 10. Crestor went generic in 2016, and will likely drop off the list in 2017. The market anticipates that a generic version of Advair will be approved in 2017. Depending on when the generic is available to the market in 2017, Advair will likely fall to a lower rank or completely off the list next year as well. With the potential of multiple competitors to Lantus becoming available in 2017, we could see movement in terms of rank for this brand, although it is likely to remain high on the list.

Market Watch At-A-Glance MedImpact is keeping an eye on trend affecting key drug classes and how they will impact your pharmacy benefit. The Potential of Biosimilars There are currently four biosimilars approved by the FDA in the U.S., although only two are currently available on the market. The approved biosimilars for Humira and Enbrel could be delayed for several years due to legal battles. MedImpact anticipates that the biosimilar manufacturers will most likely bring them to market after 2018. PCSK9 Inhibitors PCSK9 Inhibitors have a huge potential budget impact due to the prevalence of high cholesterol and the price of the drugs. There was significant payer concern surrounding the possible utilization of these products at an annual wholesale acquisition cost of approximately $14,000 for the treatment of this chronic condition per member. For various reasons including cost, lack of morbidity and mortality data, and potential undesirable route of delivery, the uptake for PCSK9 Inhibitors has been very slow and lower than expected. Amgen announced on February 2, 2016 positive top-line results for the Repatha (evolocumab) morbidity and mortality trial. The trial demonstrated that patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease who received evolocumab (Repatha) had a reduced risk of cardiovascular events. The full details of the results of this trial will be released in March 2017, which will likely lead to an increase in utilization in 2017. There is an ongoing legal battle between Repatha and Praluent, which could result in a one-product market that eliminates competition that would typically drive down price. We are currently awaiting results from an outcomes trial for cholesterylester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitor, which, if approved, may have advantage over PCSK9 inhibitors because it is an oral medication, not an injectable. Oncology Drug on Medical Benefit As mentioned on page 13, new treatments known as CAR T-cell therapy may be introduced into the market in 2017, which hold the promise as a potential cure in select cancers. Although these agents will be on the medical benefit, the price tag will undoubtedly be high if they are able to prove durable response that keeps the cancer from recurring. CAR T-cell therapy is a novel immunotherapy product created by engineering a cancer patient s own T-cells to enhance the immune system s ability to detect and kill cancer cells. CAR T-cell therapy is currently being investigated in numerous aggressive subtypes of leukemia and lymphoma, in which standard therapies like chemotherapy and stem cell transplant have failed. This may provide a treatment option for patients with no existing options for treatment. Due to the patient-specific manufacturing process of CAR T-cell therapy, the cost of these products is expected to be high, with companies quoting benchmark prices of $300,000 to $900,000 for a single one-time infusion. Two CAR products, KTE-C19 and CTL019, in development by Kite Pharma and Novartis, respectively, are anticipated to be filed with the FDA in early 2017, and may be on the market by the end of 2017. In 2017 and 2018, there may be introductions of competition to both Ibrance and Imbruvica, which could impact trend. Although these new products would be branded agents, and would not likely affect utilization, the increased competition could reduce cost. Biologics Crossing Into Traditional Spaces MedImpact expects to see more biologics available for traditional treatment areas, such as atopic dermatitis and migraine. Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, a type of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, shares many clinical similarities with diabetes and Hepatitis C, and may be the next area of high spend. MedImpact expects to see an increase in treatment costs by 2018. Copyright 2017 MedImpact Healthcare Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. 19

Market Watch At-A-Glance Drug Pipeline Trends in Drug Approvals Specialty drug development is increasing, with orphan and rare diseases making up a significant portion of those agents. Many of these rare and orphan diseases do not have alternative therapies available, allowing them to be priced according to what the market will bear. Most of these agents are being approved with priority review, giving plan sponsors less time to prepare for them clinically and financially. Though biosimilars are expected to provide some relief, this competition could take years to realize, due to the uncertainty of market availability for already approved products as well as the challenges associated with having a biosimilar designated as interchangeable. Drug Approvals for 2016 In 2016, the FDA Approved 22 New Drugs 73% Used Expedited Development or Review Orphan or Rare Diseases 41% Accelerated Approval 27% Breakthrough 32% Fast Tracked 36% Priority Review 68% Development is moving at a rapid rate and is more complex Copyright 2017 MedImpact Healthcare Systems, Inc.

Market Landscape: Political Environment With a new administration in the White House, future healthcare legislation and regulation is largely unknown. The new administration brings uncertainty that could either stimulate or stunt business. Much debate was given to potential courses of action during the election, and healthcare stakeholders anticipate Congress will move quickly to act on key issues, including: Coverage expansion Value-based payment models (e.g. ACOs, MACRA, etc.) Increasing pharmacy competition State versus federal regulations In addition to these issues, we expect to see changes to a variety of other key topics and programs affecting drug trend. MedImpact is constantly assessing the market to make educated forecasts and answer common industry concerns. Repealing or replacing the Affordable Care Act (ACA) Will insurers continue to participate? Given plan sponsor losses, exchange exits and reduced presence in certain markets, individual market stability was already in question before the election. Premiums increased for the 2017 plan year, and a murky outlook for the market beyond 2018 will only increase the reluctance of plan sponsors to commit to participating. Plan sponsors will look to Congress for a temporary transitional program to help ease uncertainty and maintain a viable market in the near-term. Some proposals will allow plan sponsors to sell policies across state lines, creating a national insurance market. MedImpact will be integral in helping our clients address the challenges presented by ACA, and any efforts to repeal and replace ACA by the new administration. We have worked closely with government-funded plans and the ever-changing regulations to help keep our Medicare Part D clients informed through our MedImpact Connect webinars. Will the pool of patients decrease? Will the young, healthy pool decrease? MedImpact anticipates many healthy people may no longer choose to have coverage, putting the at-risk pool in jeopardy with possible unintended consequences of insuring only high-risk populations. Will Medicaid expansion continue? The federal government may issue block grants to state plan sponsors and turn more control over eligibility to the states. This funding strategy would allow states to determine what services are covered, which supporters say will drive innovation and lower costs, but it could come at the expense of less beneficiary subsidies or a cut to existing benefits. What mandates will remain and what will be eliminated? Popular provisions may be retained, even if ACA is repealed and replaced. The administration is considering: Allowing young adults to retain coverage under their parents benefits until the age of 26 Filling in the Medicare Part D donut hole Maintaining existing considerations for pre-existing conditions, provided coverage is maintained continuously It is less clear whether tax credits will remain available to help pay for insurance premiums. Tax-advantaged health savings accounts, or HSAs, could play a greater role in driving a consumer-based model. Copyright 2017 MedImpact Healthcare Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. 21

Market Landscape: Political Environment Drug Inflation Will drug prices continue to soar? Market forces such as PBM price controls, continued scrutiny from elected officials, government regulators and media have shone a light on egregious price hikes by pharmaceutical manufacturers. As price inflation has slowed overall in 2016, the market will continue to keep its eye on manufacturers. Repatriation Tax How will changes to the repatriation tax affect the pharmaceutical industry? Repatriation taxes tax U.S. corporations that repatriate funds overseas. There has been much speculation that changing or reducing the repatriation tax will increase investment and revenue in the U.S. Currently, the proposed repatriation tax holiday is 10 percent, in contrast to the current 35-percent rate. This change in tax policy may lead to growth in pharmaceutical and healthcare industries by allowing U.S. companies with significant offshore cash holdings to invest back in the country via acquisition, innovation, hiring, and debt relief. Value-Based Payment Models Will the shift to value-based payment models continue? There is bipartisan support for alternative payment models moving away from traditional fee-for-service and toward paying for quality improvement and cost controls. The shift to value-based payment models will likely continue as an industry best practice. Market Consolidation Market consolidation of plan sponsor, pharmacy and PBM markets has continued, and tighter relationships between the industry stakeholders is altering the landscape of healthcare. Despite the fact that federal regulators blocked two large plan sponsor mergers, Anthem-Cigna and Aetna-Humana, respectively, MedImpact expects the move toward consolidation between the top five plan sponsors will continue. If plan sponsor consolidation doesn t proceed as expected, it s predicted that PBMs may be in line to acquire these plans, particularly those plans with government programs that include Medicare and Medicaid, which represent high-growth opportunities. The wholesale market is also consolidating as the big three, AmerisourceBergen (ABC), Cardinal Health (CAH), and McKesson (MCK) respectively, continue to gain share within the specialty and pharmacy services sectors. The specialty pharmacy market itself has experienced significant consolidation activity, with more than 35 merger and acquisition transactions in the past two years. iii In the self-funded market segment, coalitions and private broker-led exchanges are growing in importance and relevance. For example, private exchanges led by national brokerage firms such as Aon Hewitt, Mercer, HUB and Willis Towers Watson have all had double-digit growth since 2014, a trend that is expected to continue as employers look to alternative health coverage options for their employees. Additionally, organizations like the Health Transformation Alliance, a group of 30 Fortune 500 companies, strive to attain goals such as improving health outcomes, reducing waste and increasing efficiency in the healthcare supply chain by pooling purchasing power and aligning incentives.

Case Studies: Bending the Trend The Challenge: Lower Costs with Minimal Member Impact As spending on the pharmacy benefit increases, plan sponsors are looking for solutions to lower costs where possible while balancing member satisfaction. As a PBM, MedImpact provides a variety of options to reduce costs via formulary management, utilization management, network management, and other clinical programs. The Solution: Implement Industry Standard Preferred Pricing Applied to Pharmacy Plan members are accustomed to preferred pricing associated with provider networks and formulary drugs, typically via copayment differentials and/or higher deductibles. Plan sponsors can apply preferred pricing to pharmacy networks for an opportunity to reduce costs while providing their members access and choice. A preferred network offers savings by preferring pharmacies, typically one major retail pharmacy chain over another major chain. The non-preferred chain, however, remains available to members as a non-preferred pharmacy with a copayment differential to help drive utilization to lower-cost pharmacies. In January 2016, a MedImpact client implemented a MedImpact Preferred Pharmacy Network for various regional plans, with approximately 19,500 lives. This preferred network featured: A large pharmacy network with broad access and one major, non-preferred pharmacy chain Twice the deductible for members using a non-preferred pharmacy Higher coinsurance for members choosing a non-preferred pharmacy Mitigating Member Disruption MedImpact is committed to mitigating member disruption due to program changes impacting service, continuity of care or satisfaction. By collaborating closely with the client in advance to ensure members are proactively communicated with and educated about the change has been proven to have the greatest positive impact with the transition. Prior to program implementation, MedImpact conducted outreach with impacted members and pharmacies to help mitigate disruption. MedImpact identified members utilizing non-preferred pharmacies and the prescriptions they filled at those pharmacies, and sent them letters to notify them of the program change. Results The client achieved the following results, derived from claims data in the 16-month timeframe from July 2015 through October 2016: Saved $1.27 Per Member Per Month (PMPM) Reduced annual spend 3.73 percent Increased preferred pharmacy utilization by more than 22 percent Preferred networks provide plan sponsors the opportunity to realize significant cost savings while providing members access and the freedom of choice between pharmacies. RESULTS: Driving Utilization to Low-Cost Pharmacies 3.73% Reduction of Annual Spend 22.52% Increase in Preferred Pharmacy Utilization $1.27 of PMPM Savings i MedImpact offers preferred networks in conjunction with prevailing state laws, including but not limited to Any Willing Provider regulations. Please review your state regulations to determine potential impact or ability to implement this program. Copyright 2017 MedImpact Healthcare Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. 23
