DescriptionOperates a HMO providing coordinated health care and coverage for 302,885 individuals from the community enrolled in state and federal public health care programs, including Medicaid and Medicare. UCare's programs provide services to seniors, low-income families, the physically disabled and other individuals who may have challenges accessing health care. UCare does not offer any traditional commercial HMO or insurance products. UCare's mission is to improve the health of our members through innovative services and partnerships across communities. In 2012, UCare's quality monitoring and program initiatives demonstrated many significant activities and outcomes. The highlights are outlined below. Statistically significant (p< 0.05) clinical improvements for our members were identified in the following Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set("HEDIS")measurements for Medicare & Medicaid: Breast Cancer Screening; Controlling High-Blood Pressure; Managing Diabetes and Hypertension by Controlling LDL-C; and HbA1c; Child and Teen Checkups and Childhood & Adolescent Immunizations and Lead Screenings; Prenatal Care; Chlamydia Screening; Harmful Drug Interactions; Follow-up after hospitalization for Mental Illness; Spirometry Testing for COPD; Colorectal Cancer Screening; Adult BMI Assessment; Glaucoma Screening; and Reducing Non-Urgent Emergency Department Utilization. UCare offers a telemonitoring program for qualifying members with heart failure. Ninety percent of participants agree that they have learned to make changes in the way they take care of their heart failure. Program participants were also 41% less likely to have an inpatient event for heart failure than their non-program counterparts. Additional significant clinical improvements included exceeding the goals for improving the rates of pneumococcal vaccine in a Medicare special needs plan community population and Chlamydia screening in Medicaid enrollees. The Aspirin Therapy in Ischemic Heart Disease and Diabetes Mellitus Performance Improvement Project aimed at increasing aspirin utilization among members, 65 to 84 years of age-realized significant gains. UCare's health improvement efforts also were reflected in 2012 by earning 4.5 stars out of 5 in the CMS Medicare Performance Assessment report for its UCare for Seniors product and 3.5 for the Minnesota Senior Health Options product. In the CMS Medicare CAHPS survey, UCare performed significantly higher than the national average on the following measures: overall rating of health plan; overall rating of care received; and overall rating of prescription drug coverage. It also performed at a high level on other Medicare measures designed to identify member health and satisfaction, and on the Medicaid CAHPS survey.UCare's Community Benefit Program In addition to UCare's core business of providing public health care program plans that seek to improve the health of our communities, UCare's community benefit program reaches out to: address social determinants of heath; strengthen providers that serve populations with challenges accessing care; encourage the wellness of families and seniors; and support research, programs, and organizations that benefit health care quality and delivery. During 2012, UCare helped fund many community organizations and providers delivering services, research, and programs that reach beyond UCare's membership, including efforts to strengthen the social safety net for at-risk families and seniors. Examples include funding for: HIV specific housing and supportive services through Clare Housing; Minneapolis Urban League Scholarship Program that provides opportunities for African descendants and other people of color; National Alliance of the Mentally Ill, a grassroots organization dedicated to building better lives for those affected by mental illness; Lutheran Social Services Senior Companion Program as they impact and enhance the lives of many older adults who are attempting to remain in their own homes; and the Minnesota Academy of Family Physicians Research Forum which provides opportunities for family medicine researchers to share innovations in family medicine. In addition to funding quality improvement and public health efforts in the community, UCare employees devoted time to participate in collaborations working to improve health care quality and advance public health and health care access, including projects aimed at reducing language and cultural barriers. Examples include: Community Health Worker Project, Institute for Clinical Systems Improvement, Minnesota Community Measurement, Health Literacy Partnership, Interpreter Stakeholders Group, Metro and Minnesota Public Health Association/Health Plan Collaboration, Multilingual Health Resource Exchange, and Metro Refugee Health Task Force. UCare provides many health promotion, disease management, care management and wellness programs. These efforts not only benefit the health of its enrollees, but positively affect their families and larger communities. Examples include: disease management programs for asthma, diabetes, chronic kidney disease and congestive heart failure; falls prevention programs to improve safety of seniors; Management of Maternity Services (M.O.M.S.) programs that provide resources to enrollees and providers to improve pregnancy and post-partum health; car seat distribution and education to pregnant women; and distribution of free materials on health education and proper use of urgent and emergency facilities at community forums. UCare's Mobile Dental Clinic, operated with the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry, offers quality oral health care to UCare members with dental access issues. In 2012, the MDC staff performed 5,000 preventive and restorative procedures for more than 1,100 members. UCare encourages employees and their families to volunteer time and financial resources in the community. UCare provides organizational support for volunteer services to education, social services, and health organizations that build capacity in local communities to improve the welfare of at-risk families and seniors. Examples include support for the following: Adopt-a-Family Gift Drive, Food/School Supply Drives, Jeremiah House "Cook for Kids", Northeast Dinner Bell, Keystone Community Services, Pratt Community School Reading Program and Little Brothers Friends of the Elderly. UCare also provides support for the UCare Fund of the Minnesota Medical Foundation, a community-directed initiative. Funding focuses on programs and projects that improve the health of underserved populations through innovative services, education, community outreach, and research. Priority was given in 2012 to projects focusing on obesity reduction, reducing health disparities, enhancing medical homes, and supporting preventive health care. Examples include support for the following programs and projects: -Portico Healthnet: This project, developed in partnership with Children's Hospitals and Clinics of MN, seeks to improve the health status of Children's patients by providing personalized navigation services to ensure patient families access appropriate and timely care.-Knute Nelson Foundation: Introduced a new wellness program focused on biking for aging adults 60 and older.-Neighborhood HealthSource: Worked in Hennepin and Anoka Counties to educate and assist the community in accessing care, establishing a medical home. -Human Services of Faribault & Martin Counties: Increased the number of worksites and schools wellness projects through the Statewide Health Improvement Program in Southern Minnesota. -Na-way-ee Center School: Healthy Choices Project is a collaborative partnership with the Native American community Clinic organizations that provide screening for diabetes and other abnormalities, follow-up treatment, healthy meals and snacks, health and nutrition education and exercise. UCare's financial contributions to the University of Minnesota Medical School, Department of Family Medicine & Community Health supported activities in 2012 to enhance and strengthen family medicine education, research, and innovative health service delivery that improves the health of people and communities of Minnesota. In addition to providing critical funding to support family medicine education, efforts include: the Rural Physician Associate Program; development of global health educational experience for residents and medical students; volunteering to provide preventive health services to underserved populations at homeless and free clinics; curriculum development for delivering team-based care to chronically ill patients; diabetes prevention/management program with the Native American Community; outreach services in perinatal/newborn care; conducting childhood obesity prevention programs; and research in health disparities, post-partum, depression and smoking cessation programs.Description

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 1Eight directors affiliated with the University of Minnesota Medical School, Department of Family Medicine are reported here as not independent. The Medical School/Department is not a traditional parent organization of UCare, and does not directly appoint or elect all of these directors. The Department also does not have direct removal authority for all of these directors, and removal of a director under the bylaws requires the vote of at least one director not affiliated with the Medical School/Department. However, the Medical School/Department has indirect control of the appointment and election process of these eight directors. One director is appointed by the Dean of the Medical School, two directors (including the chair) are on the board by virtue of their positions at the Department, and the chair appoints five physicians on faculty at the Department. In addition, the family member of one board member (not affiliated with the University) is an officer of a care management provider organization that had a reportable transaction under Schedule L. UCare's current board includes six independent directors: five directors who are enrollees of UCare's plans, and an at-large director from the community. Under Minnesota law, the board is charged to act in the best interests of the corporation. See Minn. Stat. Sections 62D.12, subd. 9 and 317A.251. UCare's bylaws describe an executive committee subject to the control of the board and with the authority to only meet between scheduled meetings of the board and to take actions on certain matters. This executive committee rarely is convened and did not meet during 2012.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6Individuals enrolled in UCare's health plans have the right under the bylaws, and consistent with Minn. Stat. 62D.06, to elect six of the board's directors among the enrolled members. There are no classes of members or other rights.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7aUCare's board of directors consists of 15 directors. Under UCare's bylaws, the chair of the board has the authority to appoint five physician directors from the University of Minnesota Medical School, Department of Family Medicine, and the Dean of the Medical School appoints one director. In addition, two directors (including the chair) are directors by virtue of their positions in the Department.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11The Form 990 is prepared by the controller and reviewed by an independent accounting firm. UCare provides a copy and reviews the detail of the completed 990 Form with the Finance and Audit Committee. UCare also provides a copy of the completed 990 Form to all Board of Directors members via e-mail, 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 surface 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 a 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 corporation, 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 or designated committee even for transactions not requiring board action.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15On an annual basis, UCare's Compensation Committee reviews and approves the President and CEO's total cash compensation, including base pay and incentive pay. Benefits are reviewed, as described below, every two to three years, with the most recent review in 2012. The Compensation Committee is composed of independent members of the Board of Directors. UCare engages an independent consultant organization that specializes in advising health care organizations about executive compensation issues. The independent consultant organization conducts a comparability analysis that incorporates multiple industry surveys and compensation data for comparable positions at peer organizations. The independent consultant organization then shares the results of this comparability analysis with the Compensation Committee. After deliberation about the comparability analysis and recommendations, the Committee evaluates the annual cash compensation package for the President & CEO. The Committee brings recommendations about CEO salary decisions to the Board for approval, and reports other actions taken by the Committee to the Board. Minutes are recorded contemporaneously to accurately document the Committee's discussions and actions, and the independent consultant organization's report is retained for recordkeeping purposes. The Compensation Committee also participates in the compensation process for other senior executives, including the Treasurer & Chief Financial Officer, the Secretary & General Counsel, the Chief Medical Officer, the Senior Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer, the Senior Vice President of Operations, the Senior Vice President of Public Affairs & Marketing, and the Senior Vice President of Strategy and Product Management. The process for determining compensation for these positions follows a compensation philosophy approved by the Board of Directors. Every two to three years, an independent consultant organization conducts a comparability analysis for these positions, focusing on total compensation data including base pay, incentive pay, and benefits for comparable positions at peer organizations. The President and CEO's position is also included in this comparability analysis. The most recent analysis occurred in 2012. The Compensation Committee receives and discusses the analysis and recommendations with the independent consultant organization, and provides input for the President & CEO in determining cash compensation for the officers and senior executives. The Compensation Committee has delegated specific cash compensation approval for these leaders to the President & CEO, who is an independent person with respect to these compensation determinations, provided that the President & CEO follows the board-approved compensation philosophy, takes into account the comparability analysis, and obtains annual review by the committee. All changes in the benefit structure are approved by the Committee. The Committee's discussion and input are reflected in contemporaneous documentation, and a copy of the independent consultant organization's report is retained.
