Form 990, Part III, line 3In 2015, management reviewed its long-term options in consideration with the 2016 Medicare bid and concluded due to significant losses and ongoing CMS payment pressures due to the ACA, the long term financial viability of continuing to offer Medicare Advantage products in 2016 was not feasible. As a result, the remaining Medicare Advantage product offerings will be closed effective January 1, 2016. The only remaining activity expected in UCare for 2016 and 2017 will be to cover the out of area coverage for UCare Minnesota's individual commercial exchange offerings.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 3UCare Health, Inc. has an administrative service agreement with UCare Minnesota to provide overall management and administration of UCare Health, Inc.'s business. UCare Health, Inc.'s business, includes but is not limited to, administrative management, financial management, provider contracting services, marketing services and public affairs services, and other tasks as may be necessary to carry out any policies related to UCare Health, Inc.'s business. UCare Health, Inc. reimburses UCare Minnesota for all costs and expenses directly and indirectly incurred and associated with the business and operation of UCare Health, Inc.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6The corporation's sole member is UCare Minnesota, a Minnesota non-profit corporation organized to operate as a health maintenance organization under Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 62D and exempt from taxation under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Service Code. UCare Minnesota as the corporate member, has all powers and voting rights afforded by law to voting members of services insurance corporations under Wisconsin Statutes, Chapter 613 and applicable sections of Wisconsin Statutes.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7aThe Board of Directors consists of 15 Directors, although one position was vacant at the end of the year. The Directors are elected automatically by virtue of their election to the UCare Minnesota Board of Directors, unless a different Director is elected by UCare Minnesota as corporate member acting through its Board of Directors. Such different Directors need not be resident of Wisconsin, and may or may not be enrollees receiving coverage or services from the Corporation although at least 40% of the Directors shall be enrollees of the Corporation or UCare Minnesota.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7bIn addition to the powers set forth in Wisconsin law for members, UCare Minnesota has reserved to itself the following powers concerning the governance of the Corporation, which shall be expressed through the UCare Minnesota Board of Directors: (a) The approval of any plans of merger or consolidation by the Corporation with any foreign or domestic Corporation, voluntary dissolution of the Corporation, or any sales, lease, or transfer of all or substantially all of the Corporation's assets; (b) the approval of the grant of a security interest in all or substantially all of the Corporation's assets or the guarantee of any indebtedness before such security interest or guarantee becomes legally binding, and (c) the amendment of the articles of incorporation or bylaws.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11The 990 Form is prepared by the controller and reviewed by an independent accounting firm. UCare provides a copy and reviews the details of the completed 990 Form with the Board's Finance and Audit Committee. UCare also provides a copy of the completed 990 Form to all members of the Board of Directors via email, and the Board's on-line portal prior to the Finance and Audit Committee's report to the Board. Upon approval by the Board of Directors, the 990 Form is filed with the Internal Revenue Service.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cUCare requires completion of an annual questionnaire by its Board members, Officers, and Senior Executives, which is designed to identify potential conflicts of interest. In addition, UCare's policy requires disclosure to the Board Chair and/or CEO of a potential conflict involving a Director, Officer, or Management staff when a particular transaction arises. If the Board or designated Board Committee determines that a potential conflict exists related to a transaction requiring action by the Board, the policy calls for the Board Member with the potential conflict to abstain from voting and for a majority of the disinterested Directors to find that the transaction is fair and reasonable to the operation, and that the organization could not reasonably find a more advantageous transaction from another entity without a potential conflict. In practice, UCare seeks to manage certain business matters so that they are not subject to action by the Board or Senior Executives where a potential conflict exists. For example, the Board includes members who are enrolled in UCare's health plans, and the benefit designs and premium amounts of such plans are not brought before the Board for action. The policy also requires disclosure of potential conflicts to the Board to the designated committee even for transactions not requiring Board action.
