| Dimensional Warehouse Model Data Model |
Description | The risk adjustment program is intended to provide increased payments to healthcare plan organizations that attract higher-risk populations and reduce the incentives for issuers to avoid higher-risk enrollees. Funds are transferred from organizations with lower-risk enrollees to organizations with higher-risk enrollees. The risk adjustment methodology includes a risk adjustment model, a determination of plan average actuarial risk, and a calculation of payments and charges. A model is used to predict health care costs based on the relative actuarial risk of enrollees in risk adjustment Qualified Healthcare Plans (QHP). The model will calculate an average risk score for each QHP based upon the relative risk scores of the plan’s enrollees, and apply a payment transfer formula in order to determine risk adjustment payments and charges between plans within a risk pool within a market within a State. |

Description | Adjustments to plan average risk score. This figure is calculated using the risk adjustment model embedded in a Risk Adjustment System (RAS). Normalization, AV Adjustment and Rating Adjustments are applied to the plan average risk score. Actuarial Value (AV)Differences: Risk scores must be adjusted to remove the impact of AV on predicted plan liability. Normalization: RA model is based on a national sample. Risk scores must be adjusted to account for State differences in predicted liability. A State-specific adjustment must be applied to risk scores to account for the difference between the State average predicted cost and the average predicted cost in the model sample. |
