Empirical Research

Introduction

Individuals who purchase health insurance for themselves and their families in the nongroup market have a wide array of plan choices. As of 2014, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) created online health insurance Marketplaces where enrollees can shop among and enroll in plans from different carriers, and where enrollees who meet income and other eligibility requirements can receive pre- mium and cost-sharing subsidies. Consumers also have the option to enroll in nongroup plans directly with insurance car- riers (e.g., “off-Marketplace”). There are a few important dif- ferences between Marketplace and off-Marketplace choices. The off-Marketplace market includes more plan choices because consumers can enroll in Marketplace plans directly from the insurance carrier along with other plans not available on Marketplace, including some that do not meet ACA regula- tions because they have been “grandfathered” from the pre- ACA period (although enrollment in grandfathered plans is much more common in the group market than in the nongroup market (Keith, 2020)). In addition, subsidies are not available for off-Marketplace plans. For both Marketplace and off-Mar- ketplace plans, individuals can shop for, enroll in, or switch plans once a year during open enrollment.

The aim of this market design is to harness the advantages of choice and competition in order to improve coverage, sat- isfaction, and affordability of nongroup market plans (Frank, 2019). If individuals consider plan price and quality to shop and choose among plans, then decisions to switch among plans can make individuals better off. Moreover, such con- sumer behavior creates incentives for insurance carriers to improve the quality of plans or to lower prices in order to attract enrollees. However, consumers in health insurance markets do not always behave in this way, with consequences for consumer welfare. In Medicare, enrollees have been found to overweight the premium paid for prescription drug

Understanding Consumer Experiences and Insurance Outcomes Following Plan Disenrollment in the Nongroup Insurance Market

Anna D. Sinaiko1 , Marai Hayes2, Jon Kingsdale3, Alon Peltz4, and Alison A. Galbraith4

Abstract Disenrollment from health plans purchased on Affordable Care Act (ACA) Marketplaces is frequent; little is known whether disenrollment from off-Marketplace plans is as common or about the experiences and consequences of disenrollment. Using longitudinal administrative data on 2017-2018 nongroup plan enrollment linked with survey data, we analyze plan disenrollment in one regional insurance carrier servicing three states. Overall, 71% of enrollees disenrolled from their 2017 plan. Disenrollment was associated with purchasing through an ACA Marketplace, the carrier making significant changes to an enrollee’s plan benefit design, being healthier, being younger, and paying a higher premium for their 2017 plan in 2018. Experiencing financial burden or poor access to preferred providers was not associated with disenrollment. Most disenrollees (93.2%) enrolled in other coverage, often at a lower premium, but lacked confidence that they could afford needed care. These results can inform policy to support enrollees through coverage transitions and foster stability in the nongroup market.

plans relative to other cost sharing; as a result, many enroll- ees do not choose the plan that minimizes their costs (Abaluck & Gruber, 2011). In employer-sponsored insurance markets, consumers have been found to stay enrolled in the same plans over time even as different alternatives where they would be better off become available; this phenomenon is known as status quo bias and is driven in part by inertia (Samuelson & Zeckhauser, 1988; Sinaiko & Hirth, 2011). Thus, while staying in one’s plan over time could reflect sat- isfaction with one’s choice, it could also be due to consumer inattention and status quo bias. The latter can lead enrollees to miss out on plans that would better meet their needs and preferences and can interfere with competition (Afendulis et al., 2015; Ho et al., 2017; Polyakova, 2016; Samuelson & Zeckhauser, 1988).

Understanding the dynamics of plan disenrollment in the nongroup market can also inform the need for insurance reg- ulations. For example, plan disenrollment could be driven by adverse selection (e.g., when higher risk enrollees switch to plans with more generous coverage) or adverse retention (e.g., higher risk enrollees are more likely to stay in more generous plans over time). Both adverse selection and adverse retention have created market instability and ineffi- cient insurance outcomes in U.S. insurance markets (Altman et al., 1998; Cutler & Zeckhauser, 2000), and are a rationale for policy intervention such as risk adjustment (Meyers et al., 2019; Rahman et al., 2015; Riley, 2012).

Post–ACA evidence on plan disenrollment over the period from 2014 to 2018 suggests that plan disenrollment in ACA Marketplaces is common, ranging from 23% to 50% of enrollees per year (Crespin & DeLeire, 2019; Gordon et al., 2019; Rasmussen et al., 2019; Roberts et al., 2020). Reports of frequent plan disenrollment in the ACA market- places are difficult to interpret without evidence of disen- rollment among off-Marketplace enrollees and without an understanding of enrollee experience during these plan changes or of insurance outcomes after plan disenrollment. We know of no evidence of levels of plan disenrollment from off-Marketplace plans since the ACA. Prior to the ACA in 2008-2011—when the entire nongroup market was off-Marketplace—52% of all enrollees experienced disen- rollment over the course of 12 months (Sommers, 2014). In this article, we use longitudinal administrative data on 2017- 2018 nongroup plan enrollment linked with survey data to analyze plan disenrollment in one regional insurance carrier servicing three states. We compare plan disenrollment among ACA marketplace with that among individuals who purchase their plans off-Marketplace, and present evidence on the experiences associated with disenrollment and on insurance outcomes after disenrollment.

New Contribution

Existing literature finds that carrier decisions to exit an ACA marketplace completely and major changes in plan

premiums (e.g., the increased Silver Plan premiums imposed in 2018 to compensate for the withdrawal of federal funding for cost-sharing subsidies, also known as “silver loading”) are associated with plan disenrollment (Crespin & DeLeire, 2019; Rasmussen et al., 2019; Roberts et al., 2020). There is little understanding of whether enrollees who have negative cost or access experiences in their health plan disenroll and change plans, whether plan disenrollment is associated with becoming uninsured, and whether this varies for enrollees on the ACA Marketplaces versus off-Marketplace. Yet this evi- dence is needed to inform policy in order to support enrollees through coverage transitions and foster long-term stability in the nongroup market.

The dynamics underlying nongroup plan disenrollment remain unknown in part because the existing evidence stems largely from administrative enrollment data from ACA Marketplaces, which neither include data on off-Marketplace plans nor have information about enrollee health or plan experiences. Analysts also cannot observe downstream insurance outcomes if enrollees exit a Marketplace. To bring new evidence to bear on these dynamics, we analyze survey data on nongroup market enrollees’ experiences in plans, their health status, and their decisions regarding plan disen- rollment along with administrative enrollment data. We sought to examine whether plan disenrollment was sugges- tive of adverse selection or adverse retention, of consumer inattention, or of consumers shopping and choosing higher quality or lower cost plans. We also sought to understand whether plan disenrollment was associated with uninsurance (as had often been the case prior to the ACA (Sommers, 2014)) or whether enrollees who experience plan disenroll- ment find more affordable plans.

Conceptual Model

Our conceptual framework is based on an economic model of consumer choice of health insurance, which posits that when choosing a health plan, families will consider their own characteristics, such as health status, expected utiliza- tion, and income, along with plan characteristics such as benefit design and plan quality, and choose the health plan that maximizes the expected utility for the family. For enrollees in the nongroup market, this choice involves staying in one’s current health plan, if still available, or switching to one of many other plan options. In this model, changes in one’s plan benefit design, in the cost of the plan, and changes in an enrollees’ own circumstances (e.g., income, health care needs) are predicted to have an impact on plan choice. In addition, enrollee satisfaction with their prior experience accessing, receiving, and paying for care also likely affect the decision to reenroll or switch plans each year. Thus, we hypothesize that the enrollees who have negative experiences in their health plan would be more likely to disenroll than would enrollees who have mostly positive experiences.

38 Medical Care Research and Review 79(1)

A few additional factors are important in the context of this framework. First, health insurance benefits are often confusing, and having access to usable information and tools to help understand plan options or plan changes is vital if consumers are to be able to make efficient choices. There are likely differences in the availability of these resources for enrollees who purchased their health plan on Marketplace versus off-Marketplace. To the extent that Marketplaces communicate with enrollees about open enrollment and plan options so as to foster shopping among plans, we expect that enrollees in Marketplace plans would be more likely to dis- enroll from their plans than would off-Marketplace enroll- ees. Second, previous research, described in more detail above, reveals that inertia, due to factors such as loss aver- sion and regret, is important to health insurance decisions and can lead enrollees to stay in their health plans over time despite better options being available. Whether there is sub- stantial inertia in the nongroup market and, in particular, whether inertia is greater among enrollees who have been in their plans longer relative to those in their plans for only 1 year are not well-understood.

Data and Method

Study Setting and Sample

The study was set in a large, nonprofit regional insurance carrier in three states, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine, during 2017-2018. The number of insurance carriers in these states’ Marketplaces in 2017 ranged from nine in Massachusetts to three in Maine, decreasing by one or two in each state in 2018. The number of health plans offered by these carriers decreased substantially between 2017 and 2018, from 418 to 181 in Maine, from 2,463 to 858 in Massachusetts, and from 100 to 59 in New Hampshire. For the carrier that we study, the number of plans offered by the carrier increased from 29 to 35 in Massachusetts, stayed the same at 20 in Maine, and went down from 19 to 8 in New Hampshire (see Supplemental Appendix available online for additional demographics and non–group market characteris- tics in these states).

We selected a stratified random sample of subscribers aged 18 to 64 years enrolled in a non–group plan as of 2017 open enrollment and invited them to participate in a longitu- dinal survey; the sample was stratified by whether the enrollee purchased the plan through the ACA Marketplaces or directly from the carrier in each of the three states. The carrier repre- sented 32% of the enrollees in ACA-compliant plans in the nongroup markets in New Hampshire, and 24% in Maine, in 2017 (The Kaiser Family Foundation, 2017). The sample in Massachusetts did not include enrollees in ConnectorCare, the state’s basic health plan for households with incomes below 300% of the federal poverty level (FPL), because the carrier does not participate in that program. The carrier repre- sented 10% of unsubsidized non–group enrollees (e.g.,

non-ConnectorCare enrollees) in Massachusetts (Center for Health Information and Analysis, 2019).

Study Design and Data

We first fielded a baseline survey after 2017 open enrollment that collected data about enrollee demographic and socioeco- nomic characteristics; additional description of methods and findings have been published previously (Hero et al., 2019). Twelve months later, we fielded a follow-up survey to base- line survey respondents to collect data about experiences in their 2017 plan, health experiences during 2017, and plan selection for 2018. The survey asked about health care affordability, experiencing higher out-of-pocket costs than expected, access to desired physicians and hospitals, and how the premium of the plan in which they enrolled in 2018 compared with that in 2017. Among enrollees who left their 2017 plan, the survey asked why they disenrolled and about the type of health insurance they had in 2018. Both surveys were fielded by e-mail and mail, and we offered a $20 gift card as an incentive for each survey completion. The Harvard Pilgrim Health Care Institutional Review Board at Harvard Pilgrim Health Care approved this study (IRB Reference #912315), and the completion of the survey was an indica- tion of participant consent. The baseline sample includes 2,029 enrollees (29% response rate), 60% of whom (n = 1,221) responded to the follow-up survey.

We obtained 2017-2018 administrative enrollment data from the health insurance carrier. These data included enrollee characteristics (i.e., age, sex, family size, state), 2017 plan characteristics (e.g., metal level, whether pur- chased through ACA Marketplace, cost-sharing require- ments, narrow vs. broad network), and the enrollee’s paid premium net of income subsidy (subsidy was only relevant for Marketplace enrollees). Data also included which 2017 plans were “renewed” versus rolled into a “new” plan for 2018. More specifically, while most nongroup plans experi- ence at least some changes in benefit design from year to year, if changes are minor then they are considered within- plan changes and the plan is “renewed.” If changes are more significant, with significance determined by state and Federal insurance regulations, then the 2017 plan is considered ter- minated and the 2018 benefits are offered as a “new” plan. When a plan is not renewed but is rolled into a “new” plan, enrollees are notified by mail that if they take no action dur- ing open enrollment then they will be auto-enrolled in this “new” plan for 2018.

Data also included the carrier’s state-specific average pre- mium trend for 2018, and for each enrollee, and whether the enrollee disenrolled from their 2017 plan.

Method

Our main outcome of interest was whether the enrollee left their 2017 plan, which we term plan disenrollment. We

Sinaiko et al. 39

measured plan disenrollment using administrative data in two ways. First, if the enrollee’s 2017 plan was renewed in 2018, then we defined plan disenrollment as the enrollee not staying in this plan for 2018. Second, if the enrollee’s 2017 plan was transitioned to a “new” plan, then we defined plan disenrollment as the enrollee not staying with the “new” plan for 2018.

Characteristics Associated With Plan Disenrollment

We linked baseline survey data to the administrative data and examined the association of plan disenrollment with pur- chasing on the ACA Marketplace, with having one’s plan transition to a “new” plan (as opposed to renewal), the 2017 plan characteristics described above, and estimated 2018 premium in the 2017 plan. For plan characteristics, our main specification includes the plan’s metal level as a summary measure of comprehensiveness of plan coverage. In sensitiv- ity analyses, we substituted metal level with measures of plan deductible and of out-of-pocket maximum; results were similar (see Supplemental Appendix available online).

We estimate the enrollee’s 2018 plan premium in two steps. First, we assumed that enrollees’ income stayed con- stant from 2017 to 2018, and we used information on the amount of premium subsidy in 2017 to estimate subsidy in 2018. More specifically, for enrollees who received a pre- mium subsidy in 2017, we use the amount of that subsidy and the amount of the second lowest cost silver premium for a similar family in the enrollee’s rating area to estimate the enrollee’s family premium contribution in 2017. We then use this family contribution amount and the second lowest cost silver premium for a similar family in the enrollees’ rating area in 2018 to estimate premium subsidy in 2018. This 2018 subsidy estimate thus accounts for silver loading. Second, we applied the carrier- and state-specific premium growth rate for 2018 to estimate 2018 plan premium. If enrollees purchased their plan off-Marketplace or did not get a 2017 subsidy, this is their estimated 2018 plan premium. For enrollees who received a 2017 subsidy, we subtracted their 2018 subsidy estimate from this 2018 plan premium to esti- mate their 2018 premium net of subsidy.

We also examined the association of disenrollment with characteristics of enrollees measured in the baseline survey, including household income as a percentage of the FPL (i.e., less than 250% FPL, 250% to 400% FPL, more than 400% FPL), health status (whether the enrollee or a family member on their plan had a chronic condition), race (White vs. non- White), health insurance literacy, and whether the enrollee had been in their 2017 plan in the prior year (e.g., 2016). These household income categories were measured using two survey items that asked about household income and household size, and categories were chosen so they align with the income-eligibility categories for cost-sharing and premium subsidies in Marketplace plans. Following methods

used in the Health Reform Monitoring Survey, enrollees were measured to have high health insurance literacy if they were “very confident” or “somewhat confident” with seven health insurance terms and with six health insurance–related activities (e.g., figuring out if a doctor was included in your plan’s network; Holahan & Long, n.d.; Long et al., 2014).

We examined associations between disenrollment, indi- vidual/family characteristics, and plan characteristics using cross-tabulations; we assessed statistical significance using Pearson’s chi-square test (see Supplemental Appendix avail- able online for results), and all variables significant at p = .20 or lower were included in logistic regression models. To assess whether transitioning to a “new” plan had a differential effect on disenrollment for enrollees on the ACA Marketplaces versus off-Marketplace, models included an interaction between these variables. Premium varies by number insured on a plan, so we controlled for family size, excluding families larger than five because of small numbers of these families in the sample. All analyses adjusted for poststratification weight- ing for sampling and nonresponse using methods published previously (Hero et al., 2019). In sensitivity analyses, we measured health status using self-reported health status instead of the presence of a chronic condition. Results were not significantly different from those of the main models (see Supplemental Appendix available online).

Plan Experiences and Disenrollment

We report weighted frequencies of enrollee reasons for plan disenrollment collected in the follow-up survey. All analysis of follow-up survey data used inverse probability weights constructed for the follow-up survey sample to account for sampling design and subject-level nonresponse (for details, see Supplemental Appendix available online).

We measured the relationship between having a negative plan experience during 2017 and plan disenrollment in cross- tabulations; negative plan experiences included higher out- of-pocket costs than expected, any financial burden, not being able to see a desired health care provider, or rating the plan as fair or poor. Financial burden was measured as hav- ing trouble paying medical bills; having difficulty paying for food, heat, or rent due to medical costs; or forgone care due to cost. We measured the relationship between having an unexpected health event or change in health status during 2017 and plan disenrollment in cross-tabulations. To assess whether reenrollment was associated with consumers actively choosing to stay in their plan versus inattention and inertia, we examined whether reenrollees said they consid- ered other plans before choosing to reenroll. We examined this response overall, stratified by Marketplace enrollment, and stratified by length of time enrolled in the 2017 plan (2017 only vs. more than 1 year). We assessed statistical sig- nificance using Pearson’s chi-square test; we adjusted for multiple comparisons using Bonferroni’s correction, and p < .01 was considered statistically significant.

Insurance Outcomes

Enrollees’ insurance outcomes in 2018 were collected in the follow-up survey. For those who experienced plan disenroll- ment, we reported on their source of insurance coverage for 2018 (if any). We report the association of plan disenroll- ment with (1) enrollees’ survey responses as to whether their premium in their chosen plan for 2018 was higher, lower, or equivalent to that paid in 2017, using multinomial logistic regression and (2) whether they feel confident that they could afford their health care expenses should they become sick in 2018, using logistic regression. These models con- trolled for enrollee age, household income, family size, metal tier of 2017 plan, state, and whether a family member had a chronic condition. Results are presented as predicted probabilities from these models.

Results

Plan and Enrollee Characteristics Associated With Plan Disenrollment

There were 2,029 unique respondents to the survey across Massachusetts, Maine, and New Hampshire; characteristics of the study sample and their 2017 plan choices are shown in Table 1. A higher proportion of off-Marketplace enrollees had a 2017 plan that was not renewed and instead was transitioned to a “new” plan due to significant benefit design changes made by the carrier than did on-Marketplace enrollees.

Overall, 71% of nongroup enrollees disenrolled from their 2017 plan. Among ACA Marketplace enrollees, 60.9% disen- rolled from the carrier, 16.4% switched to a new plan from the same carrier, and 22.8% reenrolled in their 2017 plan. Among off-Marketplace enrollees, 47.2% disenrolled from the car- rier, 8.2% switched to a new plan from the same carrier, and 44.5% reenrolled in their 2017 plan. Thus, plan disenrollment among enrollees who purchased their plan through the ACA Marketplaces was higher than for those who purchased off- Marketplace (77.3% vs. 55.5%, p < .001).

Results from adjusted analyses show that Marketplace enrollees were 27.3 percentage points more likely than off- Marketplace enrollees to disenroll from their plan (95% con- fidence interval [CI] [21.2, 33.3]), a 54.8% relative difference (Table 2). Enrollees in plans with more significant benefit design changes (i.e., plans that were transitioned to “new” plans by the carrier) were 17.0 percentage points (95% CI: [11.8, 22.4]) more likely than other enrollees to disenroll from their plan, a 26.0% relative difference. Enrollees who had been enrolled in their plan for more than 1 year were 14.1 percentage points (95% CI: [−19.6, −8.6]) less likely to experience plan disenrollment for 2018 (an 18.9% relative effect). The magnitudes of these three associations are larger than those of all other plan and enrollee characteristics.

Having a chronic condition in the family was associ- ated with lower probability of plan disenrollment; plan

disenrollment also decreased with age of enrollee. Greater increase in estimated 2018 premium was associated with increased plan disenrollment, though small in magnitude. Enrolling in a Gold plan was associated with lower prob- ability of plan disenrollment.
