- Friday, April 19, 2:46 PM Humana (HUM +0.8%) says it's fired its lobbying firm and launched an internal probe into the circumstances surrounding the leak of a significant change in Medicare Advantage rates earlier this month. The probe will focus on determining whether the company's interests were harmed by the ties between an outside lobbyist employed by HUM and an investment firm that received a 'heads-up' and sent out early word of the policy shift to its clients. That alert set off a surge in shares of HUM and other insurers just prior to the session's close. 1 Comment [Healthcare]
- Wednesday, April 17, 12:33 PM The big surge in health care stocks earlier this month just prior to the government's decision on Medicare Advantage rates may have been due to an email to sent by a former top congressional aide who now happens to be an outside lobbyist for Humana (HUM -1.9%). The email, which is now subject to an SEC probe, was sent to a Washington investment-research firm and circulated to clients just minutes before the close of trading, saying that "credible sources" had told them a decision had been made to restore the payments. 4 Comments [Healthcare]
- Tuesday, April 2, 10:41 AM Goldman Sachs opts to remain selective on a few names in the managed care sector following yesterday's announcement by the CMS that Medicaid Advantage rates were going higher. It's reiterating a CL-Buy on UnitedHealth (UNH +7.6%), calling its valuation under 10X FY14 EPS attractive, as well a Buy on Health Net (HNT +3.6%) and WellCare (WCG +5.2%). It maintains Sell ratings on Humana (HUM +8.3%) and Universal American (UAM +9.9%) however, noting the majority of their earnings are tied to Medicaid Advantage with about half of those members in non-HMO plans."

[On the Move] - Tuesday, April 2, 8:49 AM Humana (HUM) says that the despite the proposed increase in Medicare Advantage rates in 2014, certain adjustments "may still present meaningful challenges in certain geographies." The company expects reductions under the Affordable Care Act and other factors to "nearly offset" the increase in the rates, while other adjustments are likely to hurt bid premiums in some markets. Despite Humana's caution, shares are +9.3%. (PR) Comment! [Healthcare, On the Move]
