Molina Healthcare provides at-risk medical insurance plans through government-sponsored programs, specifically Medicaid, Medicare, and the individual exchanges. It aims to gain business in these end markets by providing high-quality plans at low costs to customers. Molina looks laser-focused on medical cost and general and administrative expense management. That focus appears to help Molina generate economic profits and win business in its key end markets.
Molina could become an acquisition target for one of the larger MCOs that want more exposure to government-sponsored programs.
Molina continues to face more competition, as its Medicaid peers and large commercial insurers aim to expand into new states and new populations.
