Business Overview
The Company is engaged in the specialty managed healthcare business. Through 2005, the Company predominantly operated in the managed behavioral healthcare business. During 2006, the Company expanded into radiology benefits management and specialty pharmaceutical management as a result of certain acquisitions. The Company provides services to health plans, insurance companies, corporations, labor unions and various governmental agencies. The Company's business is divided into five segments, based on the services it provides and/or the customers that it serves, as described below.
Managed Behavioral Healthcare
Two of the Company's segments are in the managed behavioral healthcare business. This line of business generally reflects the Company's coordination and management of the delivery of behavioral healthcare treatment services that are provided through its contracted network of third-party treatment providers, which includes psychiatrists, psychologists, other behavioral health professionals, psychiatric hospitals, general medical facilities with psychiatric beds, residential treatment centers and other treatment facilities. The treatment services provided through the Company's provider network include outpatient programs (such as counseling or therapy), intermediate care programs (such as intensive outpatient programs and partial hospitalization services), inpatient treatment and crisis intervention services. The Company generally does not directly provide, or own any provider of, treatment services except as relates to the Company's contract to provide managed behavioral healthcare services to Medicaid recipients and other beneficiaries of the Maricopa County Regional Behavioral Health Authority (the "Maricopa Contract"). Under the Maricopa Contract, effective August 31, 2007 the Company was required to assume the operations of twenty-four behavioral health direct care facilities for a transitional period and to divest itself of these facilities over a two year period. During August and October 2008, the Company entered into agreements with two separate Provider Network Organizations ("PNOs") which resulted in the transition of thirteen of such behavioral health direct
3
care facilities to the PNOs over various dates through February 2009. During March 2009, the Company will begin the operation of two additional behavioral health direct care facilities and the Company expects to divest itself of these facilities before August 31, 2009.
The Company provides its management services primarily through: (i) risk-based products, where the Company assumes all or a substantial portion of the responsibility for the cost of providing treatment services in exchange for a fixed per member per month fee, (ii) administrative services only ("ASO") products, where the Company provides services such as utilization review, claims administration and/or provider network management, but does not assume responsibility for the cost of the treatment services, and (iii) employee assistance programs ("EAPs") where the Company provides short-term outpatient behavioral counseling services.
The managed behavioral healthcare business is managed based on the services provided and/or the customers served, through the following two segments:
Commercial. The Managed Behavioral Healthcare Commercial segment ("Commercial") generally reflects managed behavioral healthcare services and EAP services provided under contracts with managed care companies, health insurers and other health plans for some or all of their commercial, Medicaid and Medicare members, as well as with employers, including corporations and governmental agencies, and labor unions. Commercial's managed behavioral healthcare contracts encompass risk-based, ASO and EAP arrangements. This segment contains the operating segments previously defined as the Managed Behavioral Healthcare Health Plan Segment ("Health Plan") and the Managed Behavioral Healthcare Employer segment ("Employer"). Prior period balances have been reclassified to reflect this change. The Company now considers Commercial as one segment and it is managed as such. As of December 31, 2008, Commercial's covered lives were 4.2 million, 14.5 million and 20.7 million for risk-based, EAP and ASO products, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2008, Commercial's revenue was $416.4 million, $106.7 million and $126.5 million for risk-based, EAP and ASO products, respectively.
Public Sector. The Managed Behavioral Healthcare Public Sector segment ("Public Sector") generally reflects managed behavioral healthcare services provided to Medicaid recipients under contracts with state and local governmental agencies. Public Sector contracts encompass either risk-based or ASO arrangements. As of December 31, 2008, Public Sector's covered lives were 1.8 million and 0.3 million for risk-based and ASO products, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2008, Public Sector's revenue was $1.4 billion and $5.3 million for risk-based and ASO products, respectively.
Radiology Benefits Management
The Radiology Benefits Management segment generally reflects the management of the delivery of diagnostic imaging services to ensure that such services are clinically appropriate and cost effective. The Company's radiology benefits management services currently are provided under contracts with managed care companies, health insurers and other health plans for some or all of their commercial, Medicaid and Medicare members. The Company has bid on contracts with state and local governmental agencies for the provision of such services to Medicaid recipients. The Company has won one state Medicaid contract, which was implemented in July 2008. The Company offers its radiology benefits management services through ASO contracts, where the Company provides services such as utilization review and claims administration, but does not assume responsibility for the cost of the imaging services, and through risk-based contracts, where the Company assumes all or a substantial portion of the responsibility for the cost of providing diagnostic imaging services. The Company's first two risk-based radiology benefits management contracts became effective June 1, 2007 and July 1, 2007. As of December 31, 2008, covered lives for Radiology Benefits Management were 2.6 million and
4
13.9 million for risk-based and ASO products, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2008, revenue for Radiology Benefits Management was $239.4 million and $55.9 million for risk-based and ASO products, respectively.
Specialty Pharmaceutical Management
The Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segment generally reflects the management of specialty drugs used in the treatment of cancer, multiple sclerosis, hemophilia, infertility, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic forms of hepatitis and other diseases. Specialty pharmaceutical drugs represent high-cost injectible, infused, oral, or inhaled drugs which traditional retail pharmacies often do not supply due to their high cost, sensitive handling, and storage needs. The Company's specialty pharmaceutical management services are provided under contracts with managed care companies, health insurers and other health plans for some or all of their commercial, Medicare and Medicaid members. The Company's specialty pharmaceutical services include (i) contracting and formulary optimization on behalf of health plans and pharmaceutical manufacturers; (ii) distributing specialty pharmaceutical drugs on behalf of health plans; (iii) providing strategic consulting services to health plans and pharmaceutical manufacturers; and (iv) providing oncology management services to health plans. The Company's Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segment had contracts with 40 health plans as of December 31, 2008.
Corporate and Other
This segment of the Company is comprised primarily of operational support functions such as sales and marketing and information technology, as well as corporate support functions such as executive, finance, human resources and legal.
Acquisition of National Imaging Associates
On January 31, 2006, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of National Imaging Associates, Inc. ("NIA"), a privately held radiology benefits management ("RBM") firm, for approximately $121 million in cash, after giving effect to cash acquired in the transaction, and NIA became a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company reports the results of operations of NIA in the Radiology Benefits Management segment. For further discussion, see Note 3"Acquisitions and Joint Ventures" to the consolidated financial statements set forth elsewhere herein.
Acquisition of ICORE Healthcare, LLC
On July 31, 2006, the Company acquired all of the outstanding units of membership interest of ICORE Healthcare, LLC ("ICORE"), a specialty pharmaceutical management company, and ICORE became a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company reports the results of operations of ICORE in the Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segment. For further discussion, see Note 3"Acquisitions and Joint Ventures" to the consolidated financial statements set forth elsewhere herein.
The Company paid or agreed to pay to the previous unitholders of ICORE, all of whom are members of ICORE's management team, (i) $161 million of cash at closing; (ii) $24 million of cash that was used by the unitholders of ICORE to purchase Magellan restricted stock with such restricted stock vesting over three years, provided the unitholders do not earlier terminate their employment with Magellan; (iii) $25 million plus accrued interest (the "Deferred Payment"), subject to any indemnity claims Magellan may have under the purchase agreement; (iv) the amount of positive working capital that existed at ICORE on the closing date (the "Working Capital Payments"), which was $18.2 million of which $17.8 million was paid during 2007 with the remainder paid in January 2008; and (v) a potential earn-out of up to $75 million (the "Earn-Out"), provided the unitholders do not earlier terminate their employment with the Company prior to the payment of the Earn-Out. The $161 million of cash paid at closing, the $25 million Deferred Payment and $18.2 million of Working Capital
5
Payments were recorded as purchase price. The $24 million of restricted stock is being recognized as stock compensation expense over the three year vesting period. The $24 million in restricted stock paid at the closing was issued in a transaction pursuant to which the unitholders of ICORE at closing applied $24 million of the purchase price as cash consideration for their purchase of restricted shares of the Company's common stock. The unitholders subscribed to an aggregate of 543,879 restricted shares of the Company's common stock on a basis proportional to each unitholder's economic interest in ICORE at a purchase price of $44.13 per share, which was the average of the closing prices of the Company's common stock on NASDAQ for the twenty trading days immediately preceding the closing. The Deferred Payment was paid in December 2008. The Earn-Out included (i) up to $25 million based on earnings for the 18 month period ended December 31, 2007 and (ii) up to $50 million based on earnings in 2008. Neither Earn-Out provisions were met and as a result, the Company will not pay any additional purchase consideration.
Industry
According to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services ("CMS"), U.S. healthcare spending was projected to increase 6.1 percent to $2.4 trillion in 2008, representing more than 16 percent of the gross domestic product. With the uncertain economic environment, rising healthcare costs, and the recent shifting of payment responsibilities, healthcare spending will continue to be one of the greatest pressing issues for the American public and the government agencies. The rapidly evolving clinical and technological environment demands the expertise of specialized healthcare management services so to provide both high-quality and affordable care.
The company began its operations in the managed care behavioral health industry. Since 2006, the Company has diversified into the areas of radiology benefits management and specialty pharmaceutical management. The Company has transformed itself into a specialty managed healthcare company by entering various healthcare cost and care management areas that represent a meaningful portion of the healthcare dollar and that are growing at a disproportionately higher rate than other areas of healthcare. The Company defines areas of healthcare that can be carved out for specialty healthcare management to be areas where:
Business Strategy
The Company is engaged in the specialty managed healthcare business. It currently provides managed behavioral healthcare services, radiology benefit management services, and specialty pharmaceutical management services. The Company's strategy is to expand its participation in the healthcare management services market through the expansion of its existing businesses and diversification into new specialties and services. The Company believes that its clients would prefer to consolidate outsourced vendors and that as a vendor offering multiple outsourced products, it will have a competitive advantage in the market. The Company seeks to grow its specialty managed healthcare business through the following initiatives:
Expanding the radiology benefits management services business. Since the Company's acquisition of NIA in 2006, the Company has continued its focus on delivering innovative and clinically appropriate diagnostic management programs that create value for its clients and improve the consumers' overall healthcare experience. NIA seeks to distinguish itself in the marketplace through a focus on clinical excellence, product and service innovation, and consumerism. Since the acquisition of NIA, the
6
Company has expanded NIA's original product offerings into risk-based products, and continues to expand its product portfolio with customer-focused solutions in cardiac management and non-advanced imaging. The Company intends to continue marketing both its risk-based products and recently developed products to current ASO customers, as well as new RBM customers, through cross-selling to its managed behavioral healthcare and specialty pharmaceutical management customer base.
Expanding the specialty pharmaceutical management business. Since the Company's acquisition of ICORE in 2006, the Company has continued to focus on the expansion of its unique service model of providing contracting and formulary optimization services, specialty pharmaceutical distribution services, and strategic solutions consulting. ICORE's growth strategy is to leverage Magellan's operational platform, software development, and claims processing expertise to develop specialty pharmaceutical management products that drive savings for its customers. The Company recently expanded its product portfolio to include an oncology management product. The Company continues to cross-sell ICORE's product portfolio to its current managed behavioral healthcare and radiology benefits management customer base.
Expanding product penetration in new or growing markets. The Company seeks to expand its existing products and services in new and/or growing markets. For example, in recent years, the Medicaid market has increased its use of specialty managed healthcare services. With Medicaid experience in managed behavioral healthcare, radiology benefits management and specialty pharmaceutical management, the Company believes it is positioned to grow its membership and revenues in the Medicaid market over the long term as a result of its proven expertise in managing these services.
Continued selective diversification of business lines. The Company actively evaluates opportunities to enter other significant, high trend specialty healthcare businesses that would leverage its expertise and core competencies and/or that could draw on its existing customer relationships.
Customer Contracts
The Company's contracts with customers typically have terms of one to three years, and in certain cases contain renewal provisions (at the customer's option) for successive terms of between one and two years (unless terminated earlier). Substantially all of these contracts may be immediately terminated with cause and many of the Company's contracts are terminable without cause by the customer or the Company either upon the giving of requisite notice and the passage of a specified period of time (typically between 60 and 180 days) or upon the occurrence of other specified events. In addition, the Company's contracts with federal, state and local governmental agencies generally are conditioned on legislative appropriations. These contracts generally can be terminated or modified by the customer if such appropriations are not made. The Company's contracts for managed behavioral healthcare and radiology benefits management services generally provide for payment of a per member per month fee to the Company. See "Risk FactorsRisk-Based Products" and "Reliance on Customer Contracts."
The Company's contracts with the State of Tennessee's TennCare program ("TennCare") and with subsidiaries of WellPoint, Inc. ("WellPoint") each generated revenues that exceeded, in the aggregate, ten percent of revenues for the consolidated Company for the years ended 2006 and 2007. In addition to TennCare, the Company's Maricopa Contract generated net revenues that exceeded, in the aggregate, ten percent of net revenues for the consolidated Company for the year ended December 31, 2008. The Company also has a significant concentration of business from contracts with various counties in the State of Pennsylvania (the "Pennsylvania Counties") which are part of the Pennsylvania Medicaid program. See further discussion related to these significant customers in "Risk FactorsReliance on Customer Contracts." In addition, see "Risk FactorsDependence on Government Spending" for discussion of risks to the Company related to government contracts.
7
Provider Network
Except for certain services provided under the Maricopa Contract (see "BusinessBusiness Overview"), the Company's managed behavioral healthcare services and EAP treatment services are provided by a contracted network of third-party providers, including psychiatrists, psychologists, other behavioral health professionals, psychiatric hospitals, general medical facilities with psychiatric beds, residential treatment centers and other treatment facilities. The number and type of providers in a particular area depend upon customer preference, site, geographic concentration and demographic composition of the beneficiary population in that area. The Company's managed behavioral healthcare network consists of approximately 73,000 behavioral healthcare providers, including facility locations, providing various levels of care nationwide. The Company's network providers are almost exclusively independent contractors located throughout the local areas in which the Company's customers' beneficiary populations reside. Outpatient network providers work out of their own offices, although the Company's personnel are available to assist them with consultation and other needs.
Non-facility network providers include both individual practitioners, as well as individuals who are members of group practices or other licensed centers or programs. Non-facility network providers typically execute standard contracts with the Company under which they are generally paid on a fee-for-service basis.
Third-party network facilities include inpatient psychiatric and substance abuse hospitals, intensive outpatient facilities, partial hospitalization facilities, community health centers and other community-based facilities, rehabilitative and support facilities and other intermediate care and alternative care facilities or programs. This variety of facilities enables the Company to offer patients a full continuum of care and to refer patients to the most appropriate facility or program within that continuum. Typically, the Company contracts with facilities on a per diem or fee-for-service basis and, in some limited cases, on a "case rate" or capitated basis. The contracts between the Company and inpatient and other facilities typically are for one-year terms and are terminable by the Company or the facility upon 30 to 120 days' notice.
Historically, the Company's radiology benefits management services were provided by a network of third-party providers that were contracted by the customers of the Company to provide such services to the customers' members or enrollees. To support its offering of risk-based arrangements, the Company has developed and continues to expand a proprietary network of providers directly, through the use of its internal networking resources, and indirectly through a network contracting company. Network providers include diagnostic imaging centers, radiology departments of hospitals that provide advanced imaging services on an outpatient basis, and individual physicians or physician groups that own advanced imaging equipment and specialize in certain specific areas of care. The Company contracts with these providers on a fee-for-service basis.
Joint Ventures
Prior to April 11, 2006, Premier Behavioral Systems of Tennessee, LLC ("Premier") was a joint venture in which the Company owned a 50 percent interest. On April 11, 2006, the Company purchased the other 50 percent interest in Premier for $1.5 million, so that Premier is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
Premier was formed to manage behavioral healthcare benefits for a certain portion of TennCare. In addition, the Company contracted with Premier to provide certain services to the joint venture. Through 2003, the Company accounted for its investment in Premier using the equity method. Effective December 31, 2003, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin ("ARB") No. 51" ("FIN 46"), under which the Company consolidated the balance sheet of Premier in its consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2003. Beginning in 2004, the
8
Company consolidated the results of operations of Premier in its consolidated statement of income. The creditors (or other beneficial interest holders) of Premier have no recourse to the general credit of the Company.
As of December 31, 2005, the Company owned a 37.5 percent interest in Royal Health Care, LLC ("Royal"). Royal was a managed services organization that received management fees for the provision of administrative, marketing, management and support services to seven managed care organizations. Royal did not provide any services to the Company.
The Company accounted for its investment in Royal using the equity method. Effective February 2, 2006, the Company sold its Royal ownership interest back to Royal in exchange for cash proceeds of $20.5 million. See Note 3"Acquisitions and Joint Ventures" to the consolidated financial statements set forth elsewhere herein for further information on Royal.
Competition
The Company's business is highly competitive. The Company competes with other healthcare organizations as well as with insurance companies, including health maintenance organizations ("HMOs"), preferred provider organizations ("PPOs"), third-party administrators ("TPAs"), independent practitioner associations ("IPAs"), multi-disciplinary medical groups, pharmacy benefit managers ("PBMs") and other specialty healthcare and managed care companies. Many of the Company's competitors, particularly certain insurance companies, HMOs and PBMs are significantly larger and have greater financial, marketing and other resources than the Company, and some of the Company's competitors provide a broader range of services. The Company may also encounter competition in the future from new market entrants. In addition, some of the Company's customers that are managed care companies may seek to provide specialty managed healthcare services directly to their subscribers, rather than by contracting with the Company for such services. Because of these factors, the Company does not expect to be able to rely to a significant degree on price increases to achieve revenue growth, and expects to continue experiencing pricing pressures.
Insurance
The Company maintains a program of insurance coverage for a broad range of risks in its business. The Company has renewed its general, professional and managed care liability insurance policies with unaffiliated insurers for a one-year period from June 17, 2008 to June 17, 2009. The general liability policies are written on an "occurrence" basis, subject to a $0.05 million per claim un-aggregated self-insured retention. The professional liability and managed care errors and omissions liability policies are written on a "claims-made" basis, subject to a $1.0 million per claim ($10.0 million per class action claim) un-aggregated self-insured retention for managed care liability, and a $0.05 million per claim un-aggregated self-insured retention for professional liability.
The Company maintains separate general and professional liability insurance policies with an unaffiliated insurer for its Specialty Pharmaceutical Management business. The Specialty Pharmaceutical Management insurance policies have a one-year term for the period June 17, 2008 to June 17, 2009. The general liability policies are written on an "occurrence" basis, subject to a $0.05 million per claim un-aggregated self-insured retention. The professional liability policy is written on a "claims-made" basis, subject to a $0.05 million per claim un-aggregated self-insured retention.
The Company maintains separate general and professional liability insurance policies with an unaffiliated insurer for its Maricopa Contract business, which includes coverage for the behavioral health direct care facilities. The Maricopa Contract insurance policies have a one-year term for the period September 1, 2008 to September 1, 2009. The general liability policies are written on an
9
"occurrence" basis, subject to a $0.35 million per claim un-aggregated self-insured retention. The professional liability policy is written on a "claims-made" basis, subject to a $0.35 million per claim un-aggregated self-insured retention.
The Company is responsible for claims within its self-insured retentions, and for portions of claims reported after the expiration date of the policies if they are not renewed, or if policy limits are exceeded. The Company also purchases excess liability coverage in an amount that management believes to be reasonable for the size and profile of the organization. See "Risk FactorsProfessional Liability and Other Insurance," for a discussion of the risks associated with the Company's insurance coverage.
Regulation
General. The specialty managed healthcare industry is subject to extensive and evolving state and federal regulation. The Company is subject to certain state laws and regulations, including those governing the licensing of insurance companies, HMOs, PPOs, TPAs and companies engaged in utilization review and specialty pharmaceutical management. In addition, the Company is subject to regulations concerning the licensing of healthcare professionals, including restrictions on business corporations from providing, controlling or exercising excessive influence over healthcare services through the direct employment of physicians, psychiatrists or, in certain states, psychologists and other healthcare professionals. These laws and regulations vary considerably among states and the Company may be subject to different types of laws and regulations depending on the specific regulatory approach adopted by each state to regulate the managed care and specialty pharmacy businesses and the provision of healthcare treatment services. In addition, the Company is subject to certain federal laws as a result of the role it assumes in connection with managing its customers' employee benefit plans. The regulatory scheme generally applicable to the Company's operations is described in this section.
The Company believes its operations are structured to comply in all material respects with applicable laws and regulations and that it has received all licenses and approvals that are material to the operation of its business. However, regulation of the specialty managed healthcare industry is constantly evolving, with new legislative enactments and regulatory initiatives at the state and federal levels being implemented on a regular basis. Consequently, it is possible that a court or regulatory agency may take a position under existing or future laws or regulations, or as a result of a change in the interpretation thereof, that such laws or regulations apply to the Company in a different manner than the Company believes such laws or regulations apply. Moreover, any such position may require significant alterations to the Company's business operations in order to comply with such laws or regulations, or interpretations thereof. Expansion of the Company's business to cover additional geographic areas, to serve different types of customers, to provide new services or to commence new operations could also subject the Company to additional licensure requirements and/or regulation. Failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements could have a material adverse affect on the Company.
Licenses. Certain regulatory agencies having jurisdiction over the Company possess discretionary powers when issuing or renewing licenses or granting approval of proposed actions such as mergers, a change in ownership, transfer or assignment of licenses and certain intra-corporate transactions. One or multiple agencies may require as a condition of such license or approval that the Company cease or modify certain of its operations or modify the way it operates in order to comply with applicable regulatory requirements or policies. In addition, the time necessary to obtain a license or approval varies from state to state, and difficulties in obtaining a necessary license or approval may result in delays in the Company's plans to expand operations in a particular state and, in some cases, lost business opportunities. In recent years, in response to governmental agency inquiries or discussions with regulators, the Company has determined to seek licensing for its managed behavioral healthcare and radiology benefits management business as a single service HMO, TPA or utilization review agent in
10
one or more jurisdictions. Compliance activities, mandated changes in the Company's operations, delays in the expansion of the Company's business or lost business opportunities as a result of regulatory requirements or policies could have a material adverse effect on the Company. As discussed below, the Company is subject to certain state licensure requirements in relation to its specialty pharmaceutical management business.
Insurance, HMO and PPO Activities. To the extent that the Company operates or is deemed to operate in some states as an insurance company, HMO, PPO or similar entity, it may be required to comply with certain laws and regulations that, among other things, may require the Company to maintain certain types of assets and minimum levels of deposits, capital, surplus, reserves or net worth. In many states, entities that assume risk under contracts with licensed insurance companies or HMOs have not been considered by state regulators to be conducting an insurance or HMO business. As a result, the Company has not sought licenses as either an insurer or HMO in certain states. The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (the "NAIC") has undertaken a comprehensive review of the regulatory status of entities arranging for the provision of healthcare services through a network of providers that, like the Company, may assume risk for the cost and quality of healthcare services, but that are not currently licensed as an HMO or similar entity. As a result of this review, the NAIC developed a "health organizations risk-based capital" formula, designed specifically for managed care organizations, that establishes a minimum amount of capital necessary for a managed care organization to support its overall operations, allowing consideration for the organization's size and risk profile. The NAIC also adopted a model regulation in the area of health plan standards, which could be adopted by individual states in whole or in part, and could result in the Company being required to meet additional or new standards in connection with its existing operations. Certain states, for example, have adopted regulations based on the NAIC initiative, and as a result, the Company has been subject to certain minimum capital requirements in those states. Certain other states, such as Maryland, Texas, New York and New Jersey, have also adopted their own regulatory initiatives that subject entities such as certain of the Company's subsidiaries to regulation under state insurance laws. This includes, but is not limited to, requiring adherence to specific financial solvency standards. State insurance laws and regulations may limit the Company's ability to pay dividends, make certain investments and repay certain indebtedness. Being licensed as an insurance company, HMO or similar entity could also subject the Company to regulations governing reporting and disclosure, mandated benefits, rate setting and other traditional insurance regulatory requirements. PPO regulations to which the Company may be subject may require the Company to register with a state authority and provide information concerning its operations, particularly relating to provider and payor contracting. The imposition of such requirements could increase the Company's cost of doing business and could delay the Company's conduct or expansion of its business in some areas. The licensing process under state insurance laws can be lengthy and, unless the applicable state regulatory agency allows the Company to continue to operate while the licensing process is ongoing, the Company could experience a material adverse effect on its operating results and financial condition while its license application is pending. In addition, failure to obtain and maintain required licenses typically also constitutes an event of default under the Company's contracts with its customers. The loss of business from one or more of the Company's major customers as a result of such an event of default or otherwise could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Regulators may impose operational restrictions on entities granted licenses to operate as insurance companies or HMOs. For example, the California Department of Managed Health Care has imposed certain restrictions on the ability of the Company's California subsidiaries to fund the Company's operations in other states, to guarantee or co-sign for the Company's financial obligations, or to pledge or hypothecate the stock of these subsidiaries and on the Company's ability to make certain operational changes with respect to these subsidiaries. In addition, regulators of certain of the Company's subsidiaries may exercise certain discretionary rights under regulations including, without limitation, increasing its supervision of such entities, requiring additional restricted cash or other security.
11
Utilization Review and Third-Party Administrator Activities. Numerous states in which the Company does business have adopted regulations governing entities engaging in utilization review and TPA activities. Utilization review regulations typically impose requirements with respect to the qualifications of personnel reviewing proposed treatment, timeliness and notice of the review of proposed treatment and other matters. TPA regulations typically impose requirements regarding claims processing and payments and the handling of customer funds. Utilization review and TPA regulations may increase the Company's cost of doing business in the event that compliance requires the Company to retain additional personnel to meet the regulatory requirements and to take other required actions and make necessary filings. Although compliance with utilization review regulations has not had a material adverse effect on the Company, there can be no assurance that specific regulations adopted in the future would not have such a result, particularly since the nature, scope and specific requirements of such provisions vary considerably among states that have adopted regulations of this type.
Numerous states require the licensing or certification of entities performing utilization review or TPA activities, however, certain federal courts have held that such licensing requirements are preempted by the Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"). ERISA preempts state laws that mandate employee benefit structures or their administration, as well as those that provide alternative enforcement mechanisms. The Company believes that its TPA activities performed for its self-insured employee benefit plan customers are exempt from otherwise applicable state licensing or registration requirements based upon federal preemption under ERISA and have relied on this general principle in determining not to seek licenses for certain of the Company's activities in many states. Existing case law is not uniform on the applicability of ERISA preemption with respect to state regulation of utilization review or TPA activities. There can be no assurance that additional licenses will not be required with respect to utilization review or TPA activities in certain states.
Licensing of Healthcare Professionals/Clinic Facilities. The provision of healthcare treatment services by physicians, psychiatrists, psychologists and other providers is subject to state regulation with respect to the licensing of healthcare professionals. The Company believes that the healthcare professionals who provide healthcare treatment on behalf of or under contracts with the Company, and the case managers and other personnel of the health services business, are in compliance with the applicable state licensing requirements and current interpretations thereof. However, there can be no assurance that changes in such state licensing requirements or interpretations thereof will not adversely affect the Company's existing operations or limit expansion. With respect to the Company's crisis intervention program, additional licensing of clinicians who provide telephonic assessment or stabilization services to individuals who are calling from out-of-state may be required if such assessment or stabilization services are deemed by regulatory agencies to be treatment provided in the state of such individual's residence. The Company believes that any such additional licenses could be obtained. The Company also maintains licenses in the State of Arizona relating to the direct provision of healthcare services that the Company provides through certain direct care clinics operated under the Maricopa Contract.
Prohibition on Fee Splitting and Corporate Practice of Professions. The laws of some states limit the ability of a business corporation to directly provide, control or exercise excessive influence over healthcare services through the direct employment of physicians, psychiatrists, psychologists, or other healthcare professionals, who are providing direct clinical services. In addition, the laws of some states prohibit physicians, psychiatrists, psychologists, or other healthcare professionals from splitting fees with other persons or entities. These laws and their interpretations vary from state to state and enforcement by the courts and regulatory authorities may vary from state to state and may change over time. The Company believes that its operations as currently conducted are in material compliance with the applicable laws. However, there can be no assurance that the Company's existing operations and its contractual arrangements with physicians, psychiatrists, psychologists and other healthcare professionals
12
will not be successfully challenged under state laws prohibiting fee splitting or the practice of a profession by an unlicensed entity, or that the enforceability of such contractual arrangements will not be limited. The Company believes that it could, if necessary, restructure its operations to comply with changes in the interpretation or enforcement of such laws and regulations, and that such restructuring would not have a material adverse effect on its operations.
Direct Contracting with Licensed Insurers. Regulators in several states in which the Company does business have adopted policies that require HMOs or, in some instances, insurance companies, to contract directly with licensed healthcare providers, entities or provider groups, such as IPAs, for the provision of treatment services, rather than with unlicensed intermediary companies. In such states, the Company's customary model of contracting directly is modified so that, for example, the IPAs (rather than the Company) contract directly with the HMO or insurance company, as appropriate, for the provision of treatment services.
HIPAA. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ("HIPAA") requires the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services ("HHS") to adopt standards relating to the transmission, privacy and security of health information by healthcare providers and healthcare plans. Confidentiality and patient privacy requirements are particularly strict in the Company's behavioral managed care business. In connection with HIPAA, the Company initially commissioned a dedicated HIPAA project management office to achieve compliance within the required timeframes. Oversight responsibilities for HIPAA compliance is now being handled by the Company's Corporate Compliance Department. The Company believes it is currently in compliance with the provisions of HIPAA. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, signed into law on February 17, 2009, represents a significant expansion of the HIPAA privacy and security laws. Regulations interpreting this new law have yet to be promulgated. The Company believes, that it can comply with changes in these laws and regulations, however there can be no assurance that compliance with such laws and regulations would not have a material adverse effect on its operations.
Other Significant Privacy Regulation. The privacy regulation under HIPAA generally does not preempt state law except under the following limited circumstances: (i) the privacy rights afforded under state law are contrary to those provided by HIPAA so that compliance with both standards is not possible and (ii) HIPAA's privacy protections are more stringent than the state law in question. Because many states have privacy laws that either provide more stringent privacy protections than those imposed by HIPAA or laws that can be followed in addition to HIPAA, the Company must address privacy issues under HIPAA and state law as well. While the Company has always been required to follow state privacy laws, the Company now has had to review these state laws against HIPAA to determine whether it must comply with standards established by both HIPAA and state law. In addition, HIPAA has created an increased awareness of the issues surrounding privacy, which may generate more state regulatory scrutiny in this area.
Federal Anti-Remuneration/Fraud and Abuse Laws. The federal healthcare Anti-Kickback Statute (the "Anti-Kickback Statute") prohibits, among other things, an entity from paying or receiving, subject to certain exceptions and "safe harbors," any remuneration, directly or indirectly, to induce the referral of individuals covered by federally funded health care programs, or the purchase, or the arranging for or recommending of the purchase, of items or services for which payment may be made in whole, or in part, under Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE or other federally funded health care programs. Sanctions for violating the Anti-Kickback Statute may include imprisonment, criminal and civil fines and exclusion from participation in the federally funded health care programs. The Anti-Kickback Statute has been interpreted broadly by courts, the Office of Inspector General ("OIG") within the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services ("DHHS"), and other administrative bodies. It also is a crime under the Public Contractor Anti-Kickback Statute, for any person to knowingly and willfully offer or provide any remuneration to a prime contractor to the United States, including a contractor servicing federally
13
funded health programs, in order to obtain favorable treatment in a subcontract. Violators of this law also may be subject to civil monetary penalties. There have been a series of substantial civil and criminal investigations and settlements, at the state and federal level, by pharmacy benefit managers over the last several years in connection with alleged kickback schemes. The Company believes that it is in compliance with the legal requirements imposed by such anti-remuneration laws and regulations, however, there can be no assurance that the Company will not be subject to scrutiny or challenge under such laws or regulations and that any such challenge would not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
Federal Statutes Prohibiting False Claims. The Federal Civil False Claims Act imposes civil penalties for knowingly making or causing to be made false claims with respect to governmental programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid, for services not rendered, or for misrepresenting actual services rendered, in order to obtain higher reimbursement. Private individuals may bring qui tam or whistle blower suits against providers under the Federal Civil False Claims Act, which authorizes the payment of a portion of any recovery to the individual bringing suit. A few federal district courts recently have interpreted the Federal Civil False Claims Act as applying to claims for reimbursement that violate the Anti-Kickback Statute under certain circumstances. The Federal Civil False Claims Act generally provides for the imposition of civil penalties and for treble damages, resulting in the possibility of substantial financial penalties for small billing errors. Criminal provisions that are similar to the Federal Civil False Claims Act provide that a corporation may be fined if it is convicted of presenting to any federal agency a claim or making a statement that it knows to be false, fictitious or fraudulent. Even in situations where the Company does not directly provide services to beneficiaries of federally funded health programs and, accordingly, does not directly submit claims to the federal government, it is possible that the Company could nevertheless become involved in a situation where false claim issues are raised based on allegations that it caused or assisted a government contractor in making a false claim.
The Company is subject to certain provisions of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 (the "Act"). The Act requires entities that receive $5 million or more in annual Medicaid payments establish written policies that provide detailed information about the Federal Civil False Claims Act and the remedies thereunder, as well as any state laws pertaining to civil or criminal penalties for false claims and statements, the "whistleblower" protections afforded under such laws, and the role of such laws in preventing and detecting fraud waste and abuse. The written policies are to be disseminated to all employees, contractors and agents which or who, on behalf of the entity, furnishes, or otherwise authorizes the furnishing of, Medicaid health care items or services; performs billing or coding functions, or is involved in the monitoring of health care provided by the entity. In addition, any such entity that has an employee handbook must include a specific discussion of the federal and state false claims laws, the rights of an employee to be protected as a whistle blower and the entity's policies and procedures for detecting and preventing fraud, waste and abuse. The Company does not believe that it is in violation of the Federal Civil False Claims Act (or its criminal counterparts) and the Company has a corporate compliance and ethics program, policies and procedures and internal controls in place to help maintain an organizational culture of honesty and integrity.
State Anti-Remuneration/False Claims Law. Several states have laws and/or regulations similar to the federal anti-remuneration and Federal False Claims Act described above. Sanctions for violating these state anti-remuneration and false claims laws may include injunction, imprisonment, criminal and civil fines and exclusion from participation in the state Medicaid programs. The Company believes that it is in substantial compliance with the legal requirements imposed by such anti-remuneration laws and regulations. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will not be subject to scrutiny or challenge under such laws or regulations and that any such challenge would not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
14
ERISA. Certain of the Company's services are subject to the provisions of ERISA. ERISA governs certain aspects of the relationship between employer-sponsored healthcare benefit plans and certain providers of services to such plans through a series of complex laws and regulations that are subject to periodic interpretation by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and the U.S. Department of Labor. In some circumstances, and under certain customer contracts, the Company may be expressly named as a "fiduciary" under ERISA, or be deemed to have assumed duties that make it an ERISA fiduciary, and thus be required to carry out its operations in a manner that complies with ERISA in all material respects. The Company believes that it is in material compliance with ERISA and that such compliance does not currently have a material adverse effect on its operations, there can be no assurance that continuing ERISA compliance efforts or any future changes to ERISA will not have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Regulation of Customers. Regulations imposed upon the Company's customers include, among other things, benefits mandated by statute, exclusions from coverage prohibited by statute, procedures governing the payment and processing of claims, record keeping and reporting requirements, requirements for and payment rates applicable to coverage of Medicaid and Medicare beneficiaries, provider contracting and enrollee rights and confidentiality requirements. Although the Company believes that such regulations do not, at present, materially impair its operations, there can be no assurance that such indirect regulation will not have a material adverse effect on the Company in the future. In October 2008, the United States Congress passed legislation establishing parity in financial requirements (e.g. co-pays, deductibles, etc.) and treatment limitations (e.g. limits on the number of visits) between mental health and substance abuse benefits and medical/surgical benefits for health plan members. This new law does not require coverage for mental health or substance abuse disorders but if coverage is provided it must be provided at parity. No specific disorders are mandated for coverage; health plans are able to define mental health and substance abuse to determine what they are going to cover. State mandated benefits laws are not preempted. The law applies to ERISA plans, Medicaid managed care plans and State Children's Health Insurance Program ("SCHIP") plans. There is an exemption for small employers. No assurance can be given that such legislation will not have a material adverse effect on the Company. However, the Company's risk contracts do allow for repricing to occur effective the same date that any legislation becomes effective if that legislation is projected to have a material affect on cost of care.
Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003. The Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 ("MMA") established a voluntary outpatient prescription drug benefit for Medicare enrollees on an insured basis through Prescription Drug Plans, ("PDPs"), and by Medicare Advantage Plans ("Part D Activities"), in various regions across the United States. Among other things, PDPs and Medicare Advantage Plans are subject to provisions of the MMA and its implementing regulations and guidance intended to deter fraud, waste and abuse and are monitored strictly by the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services ("CMS") and its contracted Medicare Drug Integrity Contractors ("MEDICs") to ensure that Part D program funds are not spent inappropriately.
The Company is neither a PDP nor a Medicare Advantage Plan; however, the Company contracts with PDPs and Medicare Advantage Plans, collectively "Part D Plans," to provide various services. In our capacity as a subcontractor with certain Part D Plan clients, we are indirectly subject to certain federal rules, regulations, and sub-regulatory guidance pertaining to the operation of Medicare Part D. If CMS or a health plan customer determines that the Company has not performed satisfactorily as a subcontractor, CMS or the health plan customer may require Company to cease its Part D activities or responsibilities under the subcontract. While the Company believes that it provides satisfactory levels of service under its respective subcontracts, the Company can give no assurances that CMS or a Part D Plan will not terminate the Company's business relationships insofar as they pertain to Medicare Part D.
15
CMS requires PDPs and Medicare Advantage Plans to report 100% of all price concessions received for PBM services. The applicable CMS guidance suggests that best practices would require PDPs and Medicare Advantage Plans to contractually require the right to audit their PBMs as well as require 100% transparency as to manufacturer rebates paid for drugs provided under the sponsor's plan, including the portion of such rebates retained by the PBM as part of the price concession for the PBM's services. Additionally, CMS regulations require Part D Plan sponsors to ensure through their contractual arrangements with first tier, downstream and related entities (which would include PBMs) that CMS has access to such entities' books and records pertaining to services performed in connection with Part D. The CMS regulations also suggests that Part D Plan sponsors should contractually require their first tier, downstream and related entities to comply with certain elements of the sponsor's compliance program. We have not experienced and we do not anticipate that such disclosure and auditing requirements, to the extent required by Medicare plan partners, will have a materially adverse effect on our specialty pharmacy business.
On January 6, 2009, CMS issued a final regulation requiring Part D plan sponsors, beginning in 2010, calculate beneficiary cost sharing based upon the price ultimately received by the pharmacy or other dispensing provider, rather than upon the price paid by the plan. Such calculation could potentially result in lower pharmacy claims reimbursement by Part D plan sponsors. In addition, the regulation requires that any profit realized or loss incurred by a PBM through price negotiations with pharmacies or manufacturers be included as administrative costs to the plan rather than being factored into drug costs for reimbursement purposes.
FDA Regulation. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") generally has authority to regulate drug promotional activities that are performed "by or on behalf of" a drug manufacturer. The Company's business includes the provision of educational seminars for prescribers and other of the Company's customers on behalf of manufacturer clients and thus may subject to the federal laws applicable to the promotion of prescription drugs. There can be no assurance that the FDA will not attempt to assert jurisdiction over certain aspects of our specialty pharmacy business in the future and, although we are not controlled directly or indirectly by any drug manufacturer, the impact of future FDA regulation could materially adversely affect our specialty pharmacy business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
State Comprehensive PBM Regulation. States continue to introduce broad legislation to regulate pharmacy benefits management activities. Some of this legislation could encompass certain of the activities of the specialty pharmacy business of the Company. In particular, some legislation seeks to impose fiduciary duties or disclosure obligations on entities that provide certain types of pharmacy management services. Both Maine and the District of Columbia have enacted statutes designed to impose certain fiduciary obligations on entities providing PBM services. In 2008, Maryland implemented comprehensive PBM registration legislation. Other states, including Mississippi, Louisiana, Connecticut and Tennessee, have recently enacted laws regulating various pharmacy benefit management activities, and similar legislation is pending in several more states. Such laws generally require certain financial disclosures. Such state laws do not appear to be having a material adverse effect on the Company's specialty pharmacy business. However, the Company can give no assurance that these and other states will not enact legislation with more adverse consequences in the near future; nor can the Company be certain that future regulations or interpretations of existing laws will not adversely affect its specialty pharmacy business.
State Legislation Affecting Plan or Benefit Design. Some states have enacted legislation that prohibits certain types of managed care plan sponsors from implementing certain restrictive formulary and network design features, and many states have legislation regulating various aspects of managed care plans, including provisions relating to the pharmacy benefits. Other states mandate coverage of
16
certain benefits or conditions and require health plan coverage of specific drugs, if deemed medically necessary by the prescribing physician. Such legislation does not generally apply to the Company directly, but may apply to certain clients of the Company, such as HMOs and health insurers.
Legislation Affecting Drug Prices. Specialty pharmaceutical manufacturers generally report various price metrics to the federal government, including "average sales price" ("ASP"), "average manufacturer price" ("AMP") and "best price" ("BP"). The Company does not calculate these price metrics, but we note that the ASP, AMP and BP methodologies may create incentives for some drug manufacturers to reduce the levels of discounts or rebates available to purchasers, including the Company, or their clients with respect to specialty drugs. Any changes in the guidance affecting pharmaceutical manufacturer price metric calculations could materially adversely affect the Company's business.
Additionally, most of the Company's distribution contracts with its customers use "average wholesale price" ("AWP") as a benchmark for establishing pricing. As part of a proposed amended and restated settlement in the case of New England Carpenters Health Benefit Fund, et. al. v. First Data Bank, et. al., Civil Action No. 1:05-CV-11148-PBS (D. Mass.), a case brought against First Data Bank, one of several companies that report data on prescription drug prices, First Data Bank has agreed to reduce the wholesale average cost ("WAC") to AWP mark up of certain pharmaceutical products, which will result in a reduction of the AWP. The proposed amended and restated settlement received preliminary but not final approval of the court, and the specific terms of the settlement continue to be litigated. As of the end of January 2009, the amended and restated settlement has not yet been finalized. The Company cannot predict whether or when the amended and restated settlement will be approved or the extent to which, if at all, any final settlement terms will affect the Company's operations.
In the absence of any action on the part of the Company to renegotiate with its customers the pricing of those pharmaceutical distribution contracts that use AWP, a settlement that involves a reduction in First Data Bank's AWP could adversely affect the margins earned on those distribution contracts that use AWP, however it is not expected to have a material adverse affect on the Company's results of operations.
Regulations Affecting the Company's Pharmacies. The Company owns two pharmacies that provide services to certain of the Company's health plan customers. The activities undertaken by the Company's pharmacies subject the pharmacies to state and federal statutes and regulations governing, among other things, the licensure and operation of mail order and non-resident pharmacies, repackaging of drug products, stocking of prescription drug products and dispensing of prescription drug products, including controlled substances. The Company's pharmacy facilities are located in Florida and New York and are duly licensed to conduct business in those states. Many states, however, require out-of-state mail order pharmacies to register with or be licensed by the state board of pharmacy or similar governing body when pharmaceuticals are delivered by mail into the state and some states require that an out-of-state pharmacy employ a pharmacist that is licensed in the state into which pharmaceuticals are shipped. The Company holds mail order and non-resident pharmacy licenses where required.
Regulation of Controlled Substances. The Company's pharmacies must register with the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (the "DEA"), and individual state controlled substance authorities in order to dispense controlled substances. Federal law requires the Company to comply with the DEA's security, recordkeeping, inventory control, and labeling standards in order to dispense controlled substances. State controlled substance law requires registration and compliance with state pharmacy licensure, registration or permit standards promulgated by the state pharmacy licensing authority.
17
Some of the state regulatory requirements described above may be preempted in whole or in part by ERISA, which provides for comprehensive federal regulation of employee benefit plans. However, the scope of ERISA preemption is uncertain and is subject to conflicting court rulings. As a result, the Company could be subject to overlapping federal and state regulatory requirements in respect of certain of its operations and may need to implement compliance programs that satisfy multiple regulatory regimes.
Other Regulation of Healthcare Providers. The Company's business is affected indirectly by regulations imposed upon healthcare providers. Regulations imposed upon healthcare providers include but are not limited to, provisions relating to the conduct of, and ethical considerations involved in, the practice of psychiatry, psychology, social work and related behavioral healthcare professions, radiology, pharmacy, accreditation, government healthcare program participation requirements, reimbursements for patient services, Medicare and Medicaid fraud and abuse and, in certain cases, the common law duty to warn others of danger or to prevent patient self-injury. Changes in these regulatory requirements applicable to healthcare providers could impact the Company's business methods and practices and there can be no assurances that the impact would not be adverse and material.
Other Proposed Legislation. In the last five years, legislation has periodically been introduced at the state and federal levels providing for new healthcare regulatory programs and materially revising existing healthcare regulatory programs (including, without limitation, legislation to carve out certain classes from generic substitution). Recently some states including Massachusetts, Maryland and California have enacted or considered legislation regarding various forms of mandatory or universal health insurance coverage. Such legislation could include both federal and state bills affecting Medicaid programs which may be pending in, or recently passed by, state legislatures and which are not yet available for review and analysis. Such legislation could also include proposals for national health insurance or state-based mandatory universal health insurance coverage and other forms of federal and state regulation of health insurance and healthcare delivery.
There is currently discussion about the potential for health care reform, both at state and national levels. The proposals for reform include the government assuming a larger role in the health care system or a restructuring of Medicare or Medicaid programs. One of the items discussed has been reducing payments to private health plans offering Medicare Advantage. Depending on the outcome of these potential reductions, there is the possibility that membership and earnings derived from these plans may decrease. The Company cannot speculate on the outcome of any such "reform", how it may impact our business, and when it may become effective. Therefore, at this time the Company is unable to predict whether there will be any effect, positive or adverse, on its business as a result of any such healthcare reform.
Employees of the Registrant
At December 31, 2008, the Company had approximately 5,200 full-time and part-time employees. The Company believes it has satisfactory relations with its employees.
History
In late 1997 and early 1998, the Company completed its acquisition of three large managed behavioral healthcare organizations. Due primarily to those debt-financed acquisitions, the Company had amassed over $1.0 billion in total debt as of September 30, 2002. The Company concluded that it could no longer support the existing capital structure and determined to restructure its debt to levels that were more in line with its operations. On March 11, 2003 (the "Commencement Date"), Magellan and 88 of its subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code"), in order to accomplish such restructuring.
18
On January 5, 2004 (the "Effective Date"), Magellan and 88 of its subsidiaries consummated their Third Joint Amended Plan of Reorganization, as modified and confirmed (the "Plan"), which had been confirmed by order of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the "Bankruptcy Court") on October 8, 2003, and accordingly the Plan became fully effective and the companies emerged from the protection of their chapter 11 proceedings.
Giving effect to the Plan, Magellan and its subsidiaries continued, in their previous organizational form, to conduct their business as previously conducted, with the same assets in all material respects, but the Company was recapitalized. Under the Plan, the Company's senior secured bank indebtedness under its previous credit agreement (the "Old Credit Agreement"), as existing before the Effective Date, was paid in full, and other then-existing indebtedness (i.e., 9.375% senior notes due 2007 (the "Old Senior Notes"), 9% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008 in the principal amount of $625.0 million (the "Old Subordinated Notes") and other general unsecured creditor claims ("Other GUCs")) and the then-existing equity interests in Magellan were cancelled as of the Effective Date in exchange for the distributions provided for by the Plan, all as of the Effective Date.
All distributions were made as of the Effective Date except for distributions related to disputed claims for Other GUCs, for which distributions were made subsequent to the Effective Date periodically as such disputed claims were settled. As of December 31, 2008, the total amount of outstanding, disputed claims for Other GUCs is $0.7 million ("Disputed Claims"). The Company does not believe that it is probable that any liability for the Disputed Claims will be incurred, and thus no liability has been recorded for the Disputed Claims as of December 31, 2008. Nonetheless, the Company has withheld from distribution 89,798 shares of Ordinary Common Stock (the "Reserved Shares") which will be distributed in accordance with the terms of the Plan upon the final resolution of the Disputed Claims. If the Disputed Claims were to be resolved for the full amount of $0.7 million, then the amount of additional consideration, in addition to the Reserved Shares, that the Company would be required to issue to the individual claimants that filed the Disputed Claims is cash of $0.2 million. If the Disputed Claims are resolved for less than $0.7 million, some or all of the Reserved Shares will be distributed as an incremental distribution to Other GUCs whose claims have been allowed in the bankruptcy.
On January 19, 2005, the Bankruptcy Court entered a final decree closing the chapter 11 case.
Available Information
The Company makes its annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and Section 16 filings available, free of charge, on the Company's website at www.magellanhealth.com as soon as practicable after the Company has electronically filed such material with, or furnished it to, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The information on the Company's website is not part of or incorporated by reference in this report on Form 10-K.
Reliance on Customer ContractsThe Company's inability to renew, extend or replace expiring or terminated contracts could adversely affect the Company's liquidity, profitability and financial condition.
Substantially all of the Company's net revenue is derived from contracts that may be terminated immediately with cause and many, including some of the Company's most significant contracts, are terminable without cause by the customer upon notice and the passage of a specified period of time (typically between 60 and 180 days), or upon the occurrence of certain other specified events. The Company's ten largest customers accounted for 65.9 percent and 73.0 percent of the Company's net
19
revenue in the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively. Loss of all of these contracts or customers would, and loss of any one of these contracts or customers could, materially reduce the Company's net revenue and have a material adverse effect on the Company's liquidity, profitability and financial condition.
Significant Customers
Consolidated Company
The Company's contracts with the State of Tennessee's TennCare program ("TennCare") and with subsidiaries of WellPoint each generated net revenues that exceeded, in the aggregate, ten percent of net revenues for the consolidated Company for the year ended December 31, 2007. In addition to TennCare, the Company's Maricopa Contract generated net revenues that exceeded, in the aggregate, ten percent of net revenues for the consolidated Company for the year ended December 31, 2008. The Company also has a significant concentration of business from contracts with various counties in the State of Pennsylvania (the "Pennsylvania Counties") which are part of the Pennsylvania Medicaid program.
The Maricopa Contract, which began September 1, 2007 and which extends through June 30, 2010, generated net revenues of $196.1 million and $621.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
The TennCare program is divided into three regions, and through March 31, 2007 the Company's TennCare contracts encompassed all of the TennCare membership for all three regions. As of April 1, 2007 substantially all of the membership in the Middle Grand Region was re-assigned to managed care companies in accordance with contract awards by TennCare pursuant to its request for proposals for the management of the integrated delivery of behavioral and physical medical care to the region. Substantially all of the membership in the West Grand and East Grand Regions was similarly re-assigned to managed care companies in accordance with contract awards by TennCare effective November 1, 2008 and January 1, 2009, respectively. The Company continues to manage behavioral healthcare services for children enrolled in TennCare Select High, statewide, as well as for certain out-of-state TennCare members pursuant to contracts that extend through June 30, 2009. The Company recorded net revenues of $316.9 million and $282.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively, from its TennCare contracts. The portion of the total net revenues associated with the programs for children and out-of-state members referred to above was $47.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Total net revenues from the Company's contracts with WellPoint were $218.9 million and $186.7 million during the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively, including radiology benefits management revenue of $77.8 million and $162.5 million, respectively. One of the Company's managed behavioral healthcare contracts with WellPoint was terminated by WellPoint effective March 31, 2007, and generated net revenues of $26.0 million during 2007. A second managed behavioral healthcare contract with WellPoint expired December 31, 2007 and generated net revenues of $85.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2007.
In July 2007, WellPoint acquired a radiology benefits management company, and has expressed its intent to in-source all of its radiology benefits management contracts when such contracts expire. The Company has several radiology benefits management contracts with WellPoint including one that converted from an ASO arrangement to a risk arrangement effective July 1, 2007. Such risk contract originally had a three-year term through June 30, 2010, and cannot be terminated early, except for cause, as defined in the agreement. The term of this risk contract has been extended through December 31, 2010. The Company's other radiology benefits management contracts with WellPoint generated $11.4 million of net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2008. Substantially all of this revenue relates to contracts that have terminated at various dates in 2008.
20
Net revenues from the Pennsylvania Counties in the aggregate totaled $262.2 million and $288.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
By Segment
WellPoint generated greater than ten percent of net revenues for the Commercial segment for the year ended December 31, 2007. Two other customers generated greater than ten percent of Commercial net revenues for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008. The first customer has a contract that extends through December 31, 2012 and generated net revenues of $175.4 million and $217.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively. The second customer has a contract that extends through June 30, 2009 and generated net revenues of $89.3 million and $90.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
Maricopa and TennCare were the only customers with net revenues greater than ten percent of the net revenues for the Public Sector segment for the year ended December 31, 2008. In addition to Maricopa and TennCare, one customer generated revenues greater than ten percent of the net revenues for the Public Sector segment for the year ended December 31, 2007. This customer has a contract that extends through December 31, 2009 and generated net revenues of $124.7 and $140.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
In addition to WellPoint, one other customer generated greater than ten percent of the net revenues for the Radiology Benefits Management segment for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008. This customer has a contract that extends through May 31, 2011 and generated net revenues of $61.3 million and $96.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
Included in the Company's Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segment are four customers that each exceeded ten percent of the net revenues for this segment for the year ended December 31, 2007. The four customers generated $60.0 million, $34.4 million, $33.6 million and $24.9 million of net revenues during the year ended December 31, 2007. For the year ended December 31, 2008, five customers each exceeded ten percent of the net revenues for this segment. Four of such customers generated $71.9 million, $49.5 million, $28.0 million, and $26.8 million of net revenues during the year ended December 31, 2008. The other contract generated net revenues of $27.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, and this contract terminated December 31, 2008.
Integration of Companies Acquired by MagellanThe Company's profitability could be adversely affected if the integration of companies acquired by Magellan, is not completed in a timely and effective manner.
As previously discussed, one of the Company's growth strategies is to make strategic acquisitions which are complementary to its existing operations. NIA and ICORE were the first such acquisitions completed by the Company. After Magellan closes on an acquisition, it must integrate the acquired company into Magellan's policies, procedures and systems. Failure to effectively integrate an acquired business could result in excessive costs being incurred, a delay in obtaining targeted synergies, decreased customer performance (which could result in contract penalties and/or terminations), increased employee turnover, and lost sales opportunities.
Changes in the Medical Managed Care Carve-Out IndustryCertain changes in the business practices of this industry could negatively impact the Company's resources, profitability and results of operations.
Substantially all of the Company's Commercial, Radiology Benefits Management and Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segments' net revenues are derived from customers in the medical managed care industry, including managed care companies, health insurers and other health plans. Some types of changes in this industry's business practices could negatively impact the Company. For
21
example, if the Company's managed care customers seek to provide services directly to their subscribers, instead of contracting with the Company for such services, the Company could be adversely affected. In this regard, certain of the Company's major customers in the past have not renewed all or part of their contracts with the Company, and instead provided managed behavioral healthcare services directly to their subscribers. Other of the Company's customers that are managed care companies could also seek to provide services directly to their subscribers, rather than by contracting with the Company for such services. In addition, the Company has a significant number of contracts with Blue Cross Blue Shield plans and other regional health plans. Consolidation of the healthcare industry through acquisitions and mergers could potentially result in the loss of contracts for the Company. Any of these changes could reduce the Company's net revenue, and adversely affect the Company's profitability and financial condition.
Changes in the Contracting Model for Medicaid ContractsCertain changes in the contracting model used by states for managed healthcare services contracts relating to Medicaid lives could negatively impact the Company's resources, profitability and results of operations.
Substantially all of the Company's Public Sector segment net revenue is derived from direct contracts that it has with state or county governments for the provision of services to Medicaid enrollees. In addition to TennCare discussed above, certain other states have recently contracted with managed care companies to manage both the behavioral and physical medical care of its Medicaid enrollees. If other governmental entities change the method for contracting for Medicaid business to a fully integrated model, the Company will attempt to subcontract with the managed care organizations to provide behavioral healthcare management for such Medicaid business; however, there is no assurance that the Company would be able to secure such arrangements. Accordingly, if such a change in the contracting model were to occur, it is possible that the Company could lose current contracted revenues, as well as be unable to bid on potential new business opportunities, thus negatively impacting the Company's profitability and financial condition.
Risk-Based ProductsBecause the Company provides services at a fixed fee, if the Company is unable to accurately predict and control healthcare costs, the Company's profitability could decline.
The Company derives its net revenue primarily from arrangements under which the Company assumes responsibility for costs of treatment in exchange for a fixed fee. The Company refers to such arrangements as "risk-based contracts" or "risk-based products," which includes EAP services. These arrangements provided 82.4 percent and 84.2 percent of the Company's net revenue in the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
Profitability of the Company's risk contracts could be reduced if the Company is unable to accurately estimate the rate of service utilization by members or the cost of such services when the Company prices its services. The Company's assumptions of utilization and costs when the Company prices its services may not ultimately reflect actual utilization rates and costs, many aspects of which are beyond the Company's control. If the cost of services provided to members under a contract together with the administrative costs exceeds the aggregate fees received by the Company under such contract, the Company will incur a loss on the contract.
The Company's profitability could also be reduced if the Company is required to make adjustments to estimates made in reporting historical financial results regarding cost of care, reflected in the Company's financial statements as medical claims payable. Medical claims payable includes reserves for incurred but not reported ("IBNR") claims, which are claims for covered services rendered by the Company's providers which have not yet been submitted to the Company for payment. The Company estimates and reserves for IBNR claims based on past claims payment experience, including the average interval between the date services are rendered and the date the claims are received and between the date services are rendered and the date claims are paid, enrollment data, utilization
22
statistics, adjudication decisions, authorized healthcare services and other factors. This data is incorporated into contract-specific reserve models. The estimates for submitted claims and IBNR claims are made on an accrual basis and adjusted in future periods as required. The Company currently possesses a limited amount of experience related to underwriting risk-based RBM products. If such risk-based RBM products are not correctly underwritten, the Company's profitability and financial condition could be adversely affected.
Factors that affect the Company's ability to price the Company's services, or accurately make estimates of IBNR claims and other expenses for which the Company creates reserves may include differences between the Company's assumptions and actual results arising from, among other things:
Some of these factors could impact the ability of the Company to manage and control the medical costs to the extent assumed in the pricing of its services.
If the Company's membership in risk-based business continues to grow (which is a major focus of the Company's strategy), the Company's exposure to potential losses from risk-based products will also increase.
Fluctuation in Operating ResultsThe Company experiences fluctuations in quarterly operating results and, as a consequence, the Company may fail to meet or exceed market expectations, which could cause the Company's stock price to decline.
The Company's quarterly operating results have varied in the past and may fluctuate significantly in the future due to seasonal and other factors, including:
These factors may affect the Company's quarterly and annual net revenue, expenses and profitability in the future and, accordingly, the Company may fail to meet market expectations, which could cause the Company's stock price to decline.
23
Dependence on Government SpendingThe Company can be adversely affected by changes in federal, state and local healthcare policies, programs, funding, and enrollments.
All of the Company's Public Sector segment net revenue and a portion of the Company's net revenue in the Company's other three operating segments are derived, directly or indirectly, from governmental agencies, including state Medicaid programs. Contract rates vary from state to state, are subject to periodic negotiation and may limit the Company's ability to maintain or increase rates. The Company is unable to predict the impact on the Company's operations of future regulations or legislation affecting Medicaid programs, or the healthcare industry in general, and future regulations or legislation may have a material adverse effect on the Company. Moreover, any reduction in government spending for such programs could also have a material adverse effect on the Company (See "Reliance on Customer Contracts"). In addition, the Company's contracts with federal, state and local governmental agencies, under both direct contract and subcontract arrangements, generally are conditioned upon financial appropriations by one or more governmental agencies, especially in the case of state Medicaid programs. These contracts generally can be terminated or modified by the customer if such appropriations are not made. The Company faces increased risks in this regard as state budgets have come under increasing pressure due to the recent economic downturn. Finally, some of the Company's contracts with federal, state and local governmental agencies, under both direct contract and subcontract arrangements, require the Company to perform additional services if federal, state or local laws or regulations imposed after the contract is signed so require, in exchange for additional compensation to be negotiated by the parties in good faith. Government and other third-party payors generally seek to impose lower contract rates and to renegotiate reduced contract rates with service providers in a trend toward cost control.
Restrictive Covenants in the Company's Debt InstrumentsRestrictions imposed by the Company's debt agreements limit the Company's operating and financial flexibility. These restrictions may adversely affect the Company's ability to finance the Company's future operations or capital needs or engage in other business activities that may be in the Company's interest.
On April 30, 2008, the Company entered into a credit facility with Deutsche Bank AG and Citibank, N.A. that provides for a $100.0 million Revolving Loan Commitment for the issuance of letters of credit for the account of the Company with a sub-limit of up to $30.0 million for revolving loans (the "New Credit Facility") which contains a number of covenants. These covenants limit Company management's discretion in operating the Company's business by restricting or limiting the Company's ability, among other things, to:
These restrictions could adversely affect the Company's ability to finance future operations or capital needs or engage in other business activities that may be in the Company's interest. The New Credit Facility also requires the Company to comply with specified financial ratios and tests. Failure to
24
do so, unless waived by the lenders under the New Credit Facility, pursuant to its terms, would result in an event of default under the New Credit Facility. The New Credit Facility is guaranteed by most of the Company's subsidiaries and is secured by most of the Company's assets and the Company's subsidiaries' assets.
Required Assurances of Financial ResourcesThe Company's liquidity, financial condition, prospects and profitability can be adversely affected by present or future state regulations and contractual requirements that the Company provide financial assurance of the Company's ability to meet the Company's obligations.
Some of the Company's contracts and certain state regulations require the Company or certain of the Company's subsidiaries to maintain specified cash reserves or letters of credit and/or to maintain certain minimum tangible net equity in certain of the Company's subsidiaries as assurance that the Company has financial resources to meet the Company's contractual obligations. Many of these state regulations also restrict the investment activity of certain of the Company's subsidiaries. Some state regulations also restrict the ability of certain of the Company's subsidiaries to pay dividends to Magellan. Additional state regulations could be promulgated that would increase the cash or other security the Company would be required to maintain. In addition, the Company's customers may require additional restricted cash or other security with respect to the Company's obligations under the Company's contracts, including the Company's obligation to pay IBNR claims and other medical claims not yet processed and paid. In addition, certain of the Company's contracts and state regulations limit the profits that the Company may earn on risk-based business. The Company's liquidity, financial condition, prospects and profitability could be adversely affected by the effects of such regulations and contractual provisions. See Note 2"Summary of Significant Accounting PoliciesRestricted Assets" to the consolidated financial statements set forth elsewhere herein for a discussion of the Company's restricted assets.
CompetitionThe competitive environment in the specialty managed healthcare industry may limit the Company's ability to maintain or increase the Company's rates, which would limit or adversely affect the Company's profitability, and any failure in the Company's ability to respond adequately may adversely affect the Company's ability to maintain contracts or obtain new contracts.
The Company's business is highly competitive. The Company competes with other healthcare organizations as well as with insurance companies, including HMOs, PPOs, TPAs, IPAs, multi-disciplinary medical groups, PBMs, specialty pharmacy companies, radiology benefits management companies and other specialty healthcare and managed care companies. Many of the Company's competitors, particularly certain insurance companies, HMOs and PBMs are significantly larger and have greater financial, marketing and other resources than the Company, which can create downward pressure on prices through economies of scale. The entrance or expansion of these larger companies in the specialty managed healthcare industry (including the Company's customers who have in-sourced or who may choose to in-source healthcare services) could increase the competitive pressures the Company faces and could limit the Company's ability to maintain or increase the Company's rates. If this happens, the Company's profitability could be adversely affected. In addition, if the Company does not adequately respond to these competitive pressures, it could cause the Company to not be able to maintain its current contracts or to not be able to obtain new contracts.
Possible Impact of Healthcare ReformPotential healthcare reform can significantly reduce the Company's revenues or profitability.
The U.S. Congress and certain state legislatures are considering legislation that, among other things, would limit healthcare plans and methods of operations, limit employers' and healthcare plans' ability to define medical necessity, permit employers and healthcare plans to be sued in state courts for
25
coverage determinations, provide universal health insurance at the state level, provide for minimum medical loss ratios, and otherwise affect health care insurance and managed care. It is uncertain whether the Company could recoup, through higher revenues or other measures, the increased costs of federal or state mandated benefits or other increased costs caused by such legislation or similar legislation. Other federal or state changes in law regarding managed care or universal health insurance coverage could also have adverse consequences for the Company's business. The Company cannot predict the effect of this legislation or other legislation that may be adopted by Congress or by the states, and such legislation, if implemented, could have an adverse effect on the Company.
In October 2008, the United States Congress passed legislation establishing parity in financial requirements (e.g. co-pays, deductibles, etc.) and treatment limitations (e.g. limits on the number of visits) between mental health and substance abuse benefits and medical/surgical benefits for members. This new law does not require coverage for mental health or substance abuse disorders but if coverage is provided it must be provided at parity. No specific disorders are mandated for coverage; health plans are able to define mental health and substance abuse to determine what they are going to cover. State mandated benefits laws are not preempted. The law applies to ERISA plans, Medicaid managed care plans and SCHIP plans. There is an exemption for small employers. No assurance can be given that such legislation will not have a material adverse effect on the Company. However, the Company's risk contracts do allow for re-pricing to occur effective the same date that any legislation becomes effective if that legislation is projected to have a material affect on cost of care.
There is currently discussion about the potential for health care reform, both at state and national levels. The proposals for reform include the government assuming a larger role in the health care system or a restructuring of Medicare or Medicaid programs. One of the items discussed has been reducing payments to private health plans offering Medicare Advantage. Depending on the outcome of these potential reductions, there is the possibility that membership and earnings derived from these plans may decrease. The Company cannot speculate on the outcome of any such "reform," how it may impact our business, and when it may become effective. Therefore, at this time the Company is unable to predict whether there will be any effect, positive or adverse, on its business as a result of any such healthcare reform.
Government RegulationThe Company is subject to substantial government regulation and scrutiny, which increase the Company's costs of doing business and could adversely affect the Company's profitability.
The specialty managed healthcare industry and the provision of specialty managed healthcare are subject to extensive and evolving federal and state regulation. Such laws and regulations cover, but are not limited to, matters such as licensure, accreditation, government healthcare program participation requirements, information privacy and security, reimbursement for patient services, and Medicare and Medicaid fraud and abuse. The Company's specialty pharmaceutical management business is also the subject of substantial federal and state governmental regulation and scrutiny. Government investigations and allegations have become more frequent concerning possible violations of fraud and abuse and false claims statutes and regulations by healthcare organizations. Violators may be excluded from participating in government healthcare programs, subject to fines or penalties or required to repay amounts received from the government for previously billed services. A violation of such laws and regulations may have a material adverse effect on the Company.
The Company is subject to certain state laws and regulations and federal laws as a result of the Company's role in management of customers' employee benefit plans.
Regulatory issues may also affect the Company's operations including, but not limited to:
26
The imposition of additional licensing and other regulatory requirements may, among other things, increase the Company's equity requirements, increase the cost of doing business or force significant changes in the Company's operations to comply with these requirements.
The costs associated with compliance with government regulation as discussed above may adversely affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
The Company faces additional regulatory risks associated with its Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segment which could subject it to additional regulatory scrutiny and liability and which could adversely affect the profitability of the Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segment in the future.
With the Company's acquisition of ICORE, additional federal and state regulations became applicable to the Company. Various aspects of the Company's Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segment are governed by federal and state laws and regulations not previously applicable to the Company or which may now be applicable in different ways. Significant sanctions may be imposed for violations of these laws and compliance programs are a significant operational requirement of the Company's business. There are significant uncertainties involving the application of many of these legal requirements to the Company. Accordingly, the Company may be required to incur additional administrative and compliance expenses in determining the applicable requirements and in adapting its compliance practices, or modifying its business practices, in order to satisfy changing interpretations and regulatory policies. In addition, there are numerous proposed health care laws and regulations at the federal and state levels, many of which, if adopted, could adversely affect the Company's business. See"Regulation" above.
Risks Related To Realization of Goodwill and Intangible AssetsThe Company's profitability could be adversely affected if the value of intangible assets is not fully realized.
The Company's total assets at December 31, 2008 reflect goodwill of approximately $367.4 million, representing approximately 26.0 percent of total assets. The Company completed the Company's annual impairment analysis of goodwill as of October 1, 2008 noting that no impairment was identified.
At December 31, 2008, identifiable intangible assets (customer lists, contracts and provider networks) totaled approximately $50.6 million. Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which range from approximately three to sixteen years. The amortization periods used may differ from those used by other entities. In addition, the Company may be required to shorten the amortization period for intangible assets in future periods based on changes in the Company's business. There can be no assurance that such goodwill or intangible assets will be realizable.
The Company evaluates, on a regular basis, whether for any reason the carrying value of the Company's intangible assets and other long-lived assets may no longer be completely recoverable, in which case a charge to earnings for impairment losses could become necessary. When events or
27
changes in circumstances occur that indicate the carrying amount of long-lived assets may not be recoverable, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets other than goodwill by determining whether the carrying value of such intangible assets will be recovered through the future cash flows expected from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition.
Any event or change in circumstances leading to a future determination requiring additional write-offs of a significant portion of unamortized intangible assets or goodwill would adversely affect the Company's profitability.
Risk of Potential Limitation of the Company's Net Operating Loss Carryforwards ("NOLs")Certain future changes in the composition of the Company's stockholder population could, in certain circumstances, limit the Company's ability to use the Company's NOLs.
The Company estimates that it has reportable federal NOLs as of December 31, 2008 of approximately $114.8 million available to reduce future federal taxable income. These estimated NOLs expire in 2011 through 2020 and are subject to examination and adjustment by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"). In addition, the Company's utilization of such NOLs is subject to limitation under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 ("Section 382"), which affects the timing of the use of these NOLs. At this time, the Company does not believe these limitations will limit the Company's ability to use any federal NOLs before they expire. Although the Company has NOLs that may be available to offset future taxable income, the Company may be subject to Federal Alternative Minimum Tax.
The limitations imposed by Section 382 provide that a corporation that undergoes an "ownership change" may generally thereafter only utilize its pre-change losses (including, in some cases, certain so-called "built-in" losses that have not yet been recognized for federal income tax purposes) to offset a fixed amount of taxable income per year. A corporation generally undergoes an ownership change if the percentage of stock of the corporation owned by one or more 5% shareholders has increased by more than 50 percentage points over, at most, a three-year period (with certain groups of less-than-5% shareholders treated as a single shareholder for this purpose).
In general, the amount of the annual limitation to which a corporation's pre-change losses are subject following an ownership change is equal to the product of (1) the fair market value of the corporation's stock immediately before the ownership change (subject to certain reductions) multiplied by (2) the "long-term tax-exempt rate" in effect for the month in which the ownership change occurs provided, however, that any existing Section 382 limitation cannot be increased due to a subsequent trigger of a Section 382 limitation. In certain circumstances, the annual limitation for a particular year may be increased due to the subsequent recognition of so-called "built-in" gains that existed at the time of the ownership change. Any unused limitation may be carried forward, thereby increasing the annual limitation in the subsequent taxable year. However, if the Company did not continue the Company's historic business or use a significant portion of the Company's assets in a new business for two years after the ownership change, the resulting annual limitation would be reduced, possibly to zero.
The Company underwent such an ownership change upon consummation of its reorganization in January 2004. Subsequent changes in the Company's stock ownership, including sales of the Company's common stock by certain 5% shareholders, certain purchases that result in 5% or greater ownership of the Company's common stock, certain changes in the indirect beneficial ownership of the Company's common stock, and issuances or redemptions of common stock by the Company, could result in another ownership change that would trigger an additional Section 382 limitation. Such additional Section 382 limitation could reduce the amount of NOLs the Company could utilize in a year, and thereby have an adverse effect on the Company's anticipated future cash flow, if, for example, the fair market value of the Company's stock were to decline significantly prior to such ownership change.
28
Claims for Professional LiabilityPending or future actions or claims for professional liability (including any associated judgments, settlements, legal fees and other costs) could require the Company to make significant cash expenditures and consume significant management time and resources, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's profitability and financial condition.
Management and administration of the delivery of specialty managed healthcare, the operation of specialty pharmacies and specialty pharmacy drug distribution, and the direct provision of healthcare treatment services such as the services that the Company provides through the direct care clinics operated under the Maricopa Contract, entail significant risks of liability. In recent years, participants in the healthcare industry generally, as well as the specialty managed healthcare industry, have become subject to an increasing number of lawsuits. From time to time, the Company is subject to various actions and claims of professional liability alleging negligence in performing utilization review and other specialty managed healthcare activities, as well as for the acts or omissions of the Company's employees, including employed physicians and other clinicians, network providers, pharmacists, or others. In the normal course of business, the Company receives reports relating to deaths and other serious incidents involving patients whose care is being managed by the Company. Such incidents occasionally give rise to malpractice, professional negligence and other related actions and claims against the Company, the Company's employees, or the Company's network providers. The Company is also subject to actions and claims for the costs of services for which payment was denied. Many of these actions and claims seek substantial damages and require the Company to incur significant fees and costs related to the Company's defense and consume significant management time and resources. While the Company maintains professional liability insurance, there can be no assurance that future actions or claims for professional liability (including any judgments, settlements or costs associated therewith) will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's profitability and financial condition.
Professional Liability and Other InsuranceClaims brought against the Company that exceed the scope of the Company's liability coverage or denial of coverage could materially and adversely affect the Company's profitability and financial condition.
The Company maintains a program of insurance coverage against a broad range of risks in the Company's business. As part of this program of insurance, the Company carries professional liability insurance, subject to certain deductibles and self-insured retentions. The Company also is sometimes required by customer contracts to post surety bonds with respect to the Company's potential liability on professional responsibility claims that may be asserted in connection with services the Company provides. As of December 31, 2008, the Company had approximately $55.4 million of such bonds outstanding. The Company's insurance may not be sufficient to cover any judgments, settlements or costs relating to present or future claims, suits or complaints. Upon expiration of the Company's insurance policies, sufficient insurance may not be available on favorable terms, if at all. To the extent the Company's customers are entitled to indemnification under their contracts with the Company relating to liabilities they incur arising from the operation of the Company's programs, such indemnification may not be covered under the Company's insurance policies. To the extent that certain actions and claims seek punitive and compensatory damages arising from the Company's alleged intentional misconduct, such damages, if awarded, may not be covered, in whole or in part, by the Company's insurance policies. If the Company is unable to secure adequate insurance in the future, or if the insurance the Company carries is not sufficient to cover any judgments, settlements or costs relating to any present or future actions or claims, such judgments, settlements or costs may have a material adverse effect on the Company's profitability and financial condition. If the Company is unable to obtain needed surety bonds in adequate amounts or make alternative arrangements to satisfy the requirements for such bonds, the Company may no longer be able to operate in those states, which would have a material adverse effect on the Company.
29
Class Action Suits and Other Legal ProceedingsThe Company is subject to class action and other lawsuits that could result in material liabilities to the Company or cause the Company to incur material costs, to change the Company's operating procedures in ways that increase costs or to comply with additional regulatory requirements.
Managed healthcare companies and PBM companies have been targeted as defendants in national class action lawsuits regarding their business practices. The Company has in the past been subject to such national class actions as defendants and is also subject to or a party to other class actions, lawsuits and legal proceedings in conducting the Company's business. In addition, certain of the Company's customers are parties to pending class action lawsuits regarding the customers' business practices for which the customers could seek indemnification from the Company. These lawsuits may take years to resolve and cause the Company to incur substantial litigation expenses and the outcomes could have a material adverse effect on the Company's profitability and financial condition. In addition to potential damage awards, depending upon the outcomes of such cases, these lawsuits may cause or force changes in practices of the Company's industry and may also cause additional regulation of the industry through new federal or state laws or new applications of existing laws or regulations. Such changes could increase the Company's operating costs.
Government InvestigationsThe Company may be subjected to additional regulatory requirements and to investigations or regulatory action by governmental agencies, each of which may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
From time to time, the Company receives notifications from and engages in discussions with various government agencies concerning the Company's businesses and operations. As a result of these contacts with regulators, the Company may, as appropriate, be required to implement changes to the Company's operations, revise the Company's filings with such agencies and/or seek additional licenses to conduct the Company's business. The Company's inability to comply with the various regulatory requirements may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business.
In addition, the Company may become subject to regulatory investigations relating to the Company's business, which may result in litigation or regulatory action. A subsequent legal liability or a significant regulatory action against the Company could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, even if the Company ultimately prevails in the litigation, regulatory action or investigation, such litigation, regulatory action or investigation could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
Investment PortfolioThe value of the Company's investments is influenced by varying economic and market conditions, and a decrease in value may result in a loss charged to income.
The Company's available-for-sale investment securities were $233.9 million and represented 16.5 percent of the Company's total consolidated assets at December 31, 2008. These assets are carried at fair value, and the unrealized gains or losses are included in accumulated other comprehensive income as a separate component of shareholders' equity, unless the decline in value is deemed to be other-than-temporary. If a decline in value is deemed to be other-than-temporary, the cost basis of the impaired security is written down to fair value and a charge is taken through operations. The Company has concluded that the unrealized losses are temporary and the Company has the intent and ability to hold the securities until they recover or mature. Therefore, the Company has not recorded any other than temporary impairments.
In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the Company reviews its investment securities to determine if declines in fair value below cost are other-than-temporary. This review is subjective and requires a high degree of judgment. The Company conducts this review on a quarterly basis, using both
30
quantitative and qualitative factors, to determine whether a decline in value is other-than-temporary. Such factors considered include the length of time and the extent to which market value has been less than cost, financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, trading activity and marketability of the security, recommendations of investment advisors and forecasts of economic, market or industry trends. This review process also entails an evaluation of the Company's ability and intent to hold individual securities until they mature or full cost can be recovered. The current economic environment and recent volatility of securities markets increase the difficulty of assessing investment impairment and the same influences tend to increase the risk of potential impairment of these assets. The Company believes it has adequately reviewed its investment securities for impairment and that its investment securities are carried at fair value. However, over time, the economic and market environment may provide additional insight regarding the fair value of certain securities, which could change the Company's judgment regarding impairment. This could result in realized losses relating to other-than-temporary declines being charged against future income. Given the current market conditions and the significant judgments involved, there is a risk that declines in fair value may occur and material other-than-temporary impairments may be charged to income in future periods, resulting in realized losses.
Adverse Economic ConditionsThe state of the national economy and adverse changes in economic conditions could adversely affect the Company's business and results of operations.
The state of the economy has negatively affected state budgets and could adversely affect the Company's reimbursement from state Medicaid programs in its Public Sector segment. The state of the economy and adverse economic conditions could also adversely affect our customers in the Commercial, Radiology Benefits Management and Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segments resulting in increased pressures on the Company's operating margins. In addition, the economic conditions may result in decreased membership in the Commercial, Radiology Benefits Management, and Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segments, thereby adversely affecting the revenues to the Company from such customers as well as our operating profitability.
These economic conditions in the debt markets may affect the Company's ability to refinance, or the terms of, a new credit facility, upon the maturity of the Company's existing New Credit Facility on April 29, 2009.
Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments
None.
The Company currently leases approximately 1.2 million square feet of office space comprising 68 offices in 21 states and the District of Columbia, with terms expiring between January 2009 and August 2015. The Company's principal executive offices are located in Avon, Connecticut, which lease expires in September 2012. The Company believes that its current facilities are suitable for and adequate to support the level of its present operations.
The management and administration of the delivery of specialty managed healthcare entails significant risks of liability. From time to time, the Company is subject to various actions and claims arising from the acts or omissions of its employees, network providers or other parties. In the normal course of business, the Company receives reports relating to deaths and other serious incidents involving patients whose care is being managed by the Company. Such incidents occasionally give rise to malpractice, professional negligence and other related actions and claims against the Company or its

network providers. Many of these actions and claims received by the Company seek substantial damages and therefore require the Company to incur significant fees and costs related to their defense. The Company is also subject to or party to certain class actions, litigation and claims relating to its operations and business practices. In the opinion of management, the Company has recorded reserves that are adequate to cover litigation, claims or assessments that have been or may be asserted against the Company, and for which the outcome is probable and reasonably estimable. Management believes that the resolution of such litigation and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations; however, there can be no assurance in this regard.

Business Overview
The Company is engaged in the specialty managed healthcare business. Through 2005, the Company predominantly operated in the managed behavioral healthcare business. During 2006, the Company expanded into radiology benefits management and specialty pharmaceutical management as a result of certain acquisitions. The Company provides services to health plans, insurance companies, corporations, labor unions and various governmental agencies. The Company's business is divided into five segments, based on the services it provides and/or the customers that it serves, as described below.
Managed Behavioral Healthcare
Two of the Company's segments are in the managed behavioral healthcare business. This line of business generally reflects the Company's coordination and management of the delivery of behavioral healthcare treatment services that are provided through its contracted network of third-party treatment providers, which includes psychiatrists, psychologists, other behavioral health professionals, psychiatric hospitals, general medical facilities with psychiatric beds, residential treatment centers and other treatment facilities. The treatment services provided through the Company's provider network include outpatient programs (such as counseling or therapy), intermediate care programs (such as intensive outpatient programs and partial hospitalization services), inpatient treatment and crisis intervention services. The Company generally does not directly provide, or own any provider of, treatment services except as relates to the Company's contract to provide managed behavioral healthcare services to Medicaid recipients and other beneficiaries of the Maricopa County Regional Behavioral Health Authority (the "Maricopa Contract"). Under the Maricopa Contract, effective August 31, 2007 the Company was required to assume the operations of twenty-four behavioral health direct care facilities
38
for a transitional period and to divest itself of these facilities over a two year period. During August and October 2008, the Company entered into agreements with two separate Provider Network Organizations ("PNOs") which resulted in the transition of thirteen of such behavioral health direct care facilities to the PNOs over various dates through February 2009. During March 2009, the Company will begin the operation of two additional behavioral health direct care facilities and the Company expects to divest itself of these facilities before August 31, 2009.
The Company provides its management services primarily through: (i) risk-based products, where the Company assumes all or a substantial portion of the responsibility for the cost of providing treatment services in exchange for a fixed per member per month fee, (ii) ASO products, where the Company provides services such as utilization review, claims administration and/or provider network management, but does not assume responsibility for the cost of the treatment services, and (iii) EAPs where the Company provides short-term outpatient behavioral counseling services.
The managed behavioral healthcare business is managed based on the services provided and/or the customers served, through the following two segments:
Commercial. The Managed Behavioral Healthcare Commercial segment ("Commercial") generally reflects managed behavioral healthcare services and EAP services provided under contracts with managed care companies, health insurers and other health plans for some or all of their commercial, Medicaid and Medicare members, as well as with employers, including corporations and governmental agencies, and labor unions. Commercial's managed behavioral healthcare contracts encompass risk-based, ASO and EAP arrangements. This segment contains the operating segments previously defined as the Managed Behavioral Healthcare Health Plan Segment ("Health Plan") and the Managed Behavioral Healthcare Employer segment ("Employer"). Prior period balances have been reclassified to reflect this change. The Company now considers Commercial as one segment and it is managed as such. As of December 31, 2008, Commercial's covered lives were 4.2 million, 14.5 million and 20.7 million for risk-based, EAP and ASO products, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2008, Commercial's revenue was $416.4 million, $106.7 million and $126.5 million for risk-based, EAP and ASO products, respectively.
Public Sector. The Managed Behavioral Healthcare Public Sector segment ("Public Sector") generally reflects managed behavioral healthcare services provided to Medicaid recipients under contracts with state and local governmental agencies. Public Sector contracts encompass either risk-based or ASO arrangements. As of December 31, 2008, Public Sector's covered lives were 1.8 million and 0.3 million for risk-based and ASO products, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2008, Public Sector's revenue was $1.4 billion and $5.3 million for risk-based and ASO products, respectively.
Radiology Benefits Management
The Radiology Benefits Management segment generally reflects the management of the delivery of diagnostic imaging services to ensure that such services are clinically appropriate and cost effective. The Company's radiology benefits management services currently are provided under contracts with managed care companies, health insurers and other health plans for some or all of their commercial, Medicaid and Medicare members. The Company has bid on contracts with state and local governmental agencies for the provision of such services to Medicaid recipients. The Company has won one state Medicaid contract, which was implemented in July 2008. The Company offers its radiology benefits management services through ASO contracts, where the Company provides services such as utilization review and claims administration, but does not assume responsibility for the cost of the imaging services, and through risk-based contracts, where the Company assumes all or a substantial portion of the responsibility for the cost of providing diagnostic imaging services. The Company's first two risk-based radiology benefits management contracts became effective June 1, 2007 and July 1, 2007.
39
As of December 31, 2008, covered lives for Radiology Benefits Management were 2.6 million and 13.9 million for risk-based and ASO products, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2008, revenue for Radiology Benefits Management was $239.4 million and $55.9 million for risk-based and ASO products, respectively.
Specialty Pharmaceutical Management
The Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segment generally reflects the management of specialty drugs used in the treatment of cancer, multiple sclerosis, hemophilia, infertility, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic forms of hepatitis and other diseases. Specialty pharmaceutical drugs represent high-cost injectible, infused, oral, or inhaled drugs which traditional retail pharmacies often do not supply due to their high cost, sensitive handling, and storage needs. The Company's specialty pharmaceutical management services are provided under contracts with managed care companies, health insurers and other health plans for some or all of their commercial, Medicare and Medicaid members. The Company's specialty pharmaceutical services include (i) contracting and formulary optimization on behalf of health plans and pharmaceutical manufacturers; (ii) distributing specialty pharmaceutical drugs on behalf of health plans; (iii) providing strategic consulting services to health plans and pharmaceutical manufacturers; and (iv) providing oncology management services to health plans. The Company's Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segment had contracts with 40 health plans as of December 31, 2008.
Corporate and Other
This segment of the Company is comprised primarily of operational support functions such as sales and marketing and information technology, as well as corporate support functions such as executive, finance, human resources and legal.
Acquisition of National Imaging Associates
On January 31, 2006, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of NIA, a privately held radiology benefits management ("RBM") firm, for approximately $121 million in cash, after giving effect to cash acquired in the transaction, and NIA became a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company reports the results of operations of NIA in the Radiology Benefits Management segment. For further discussion, see Note 3"Acquisitions and Joint Ventures" to the consolidated financial statements set forth elsewhere herein.
Acquisition of ICORE Healthcare, LLC
On July 31, 2006, the Company acquired all of the outstanding units of membership interest of ICORE, a specialty pharmaceutical management company, and ICORE became a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company reports the results of operations of ICORE in the Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segment. For further discussion, see Note 3"Acquisitions and Joint Ventures" to the consolidated financial statements set forth elsewhere herein.
The Company paid or agreed to pay to the previous unitholders of ICORE, all of whom are members of ICORE's management team, (i) $161 million of cash at closing; (ii) $24 million of cash that was used by the unitholders of ICORE to purchase Magellan restricted stock with such restricted stock vesting over three years, provided the unitholders do not earlier terminate their employment with Magellan; (iii) $25 million plus accrued interest (the "Deferred Payment"), subject to any indemnity claims Magellan may have under the purchase agreement; (iv) the amount of positive working capital that existed at ICORE on the closing date (the "Working Capital Payments"), which was $18.2 million of which $17.8 million was paid during 2007 with the remainder paid in January 2008; and (v) a potential earn-out of up to $75 million (the "Earn-Out"), provided the unitholders do not earlier terminate their employment with the Company prior to the payment of the Earn-Out. The $161 million
40
of cash paid at closing, the $25 million Deferred Payment and $18.2 million of Working Capital Payments were recorded as purchase price. The $24 million of restricted stock is being recognized as stock compensation expense over the three year vesting period. The $24 million in restricted stock paid at the closing was issued in a transaction pursuant to which the unitholders of ICORE at closing applied $24 million of the purchase price as cash consideration for their purchase of restricted shares of the Company's common stock. The unitholders subscribed to an aggregate of 543,879 restricted shares of the Company's common stock on a basis proportional to each unitholder's economic interest in ICORE at a purchase price of $44.13 per share, which was the average of the closing prices of the Company's common stock on NASDAQ for the twenty trading days immediately preceding the closing. The Deferred Payment was paid in December 2008. The Earn-Out included (i) up to $25 million based on earnings for the 18 month period ended December 31, 2007 and (ii) up to $50 million based on earnings in 2008. Neither Earn-Out provisions were met and as a result, the Company will not pay any additional purchase consideration.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company considers the following to be its critical accounting policies and estimates:
Stock Compensation
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123 (revised 2004) "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS 123R"), using the modified prospective transition method. Under this transition method, stock compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008 includes compensation expense for all stock compensation awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"). Stock compensation expense for all stock compensation awards granted after January 1, 2006 is based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R. The Company recognizes substantially all of these compensation costs on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting term ranging from three to four years. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R, the Company recorded stock compensation under Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25").
The Company estimates the fair value of substantially all stock options using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model that employs certain factors including expected volatility of stock price, expected life of the option, risk-free interest rate and expected dividend yield. For the year ended December 31, 2006, management determined that volatility based on actively traded equities of companies that are similar to the Company was a better indicator of expected volatility and future stock price trends than historical Company volatility, due to the lack of sufficient history of the Company subsequent to the Company's emergence from bankruptcy. For the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, such volatility was based on the historical volatility of the Company's stock price.
The expected term of the option is based on historical employee stock option exercise behavior and the vesting terms of the respective option. Risk-free interest rates are based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant.
41
SFAS 123R also requires the Company to recognize compensation expense for only the portion of options, restricted stock or restricted stock units that are expected to vest. Therefore, estimated forfeiture rates are derived from historical employee termination behavior. The Company's estimated forfeiture rates for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008 are three percent, two percent and eight percent, respectively. If the actual number of forfeitures differs from those estimated, additional adjustments to compensation expense may be required in future periods. If vesting of an award is conditioned upon the achievement of performance goals, compensation expense during the performance period is estimated using the most probable outcome of the performance goals, and adjusted as the expected outcome changes.
Managed Care Revenue
Managed care revenue, inclusive of revenue from the Company's risk, EAP and ASO contracts, is recognized over the applicable coverage period on a per member basis for covered members. The Company is paid a per member fee for all enrolled members, and this fee is recorded as revenue in the month in which members are entitled to service. The Company adjusts its revenue for retroactive membership terminations, additions and other changes, when such adjustments are identified, with the exception of retroactivity that can be reasonably estimated. Any fees paid prior to the month of service are recorded as deferred revenue. Managed care revenues approximated $1.6 billion, $1.9 billion and $2.2 billion for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
Cost-Plus Contracts
The Company has certain cost-plus contracts with customers under which the Company recognizes revenue as costs are incurred and as services are performed. Revenues from cost-plus contracts approximated $32.3 million, $30.5 million and $31.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
Block Grant Revenues
The Maricopa Contract is partially funded by federal, state and county block grant money, which represents annual appropriations. The Company recognizes revenue from block grant activity ratably over the period to which the block grant funding applies. Block grant revenues were approximately $40.6 million and $120.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
Distribution Revenue
The Company recognizes distribution revenue, which includes the co-payments received from members of the health plans the Company serves, when the specialty pharmaceutical drugs are shipped. At the time of shipment, the earnings process is complete; the obligation of the Company's customer to pay for the specialty pharmaceutical drugs is fixed, and, due to the nature of the product, the member may neither return the specialty pharmaceutical drugs nor receive a refund. Revenues from the distribution of specialty pharmaceutical drugs on behalf of health plans were $46.3 million, $160.6 million and $195.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
Performance-Based Revenue
The Company has the ability to earn performance-based revenue under certain risk and non-risk contracts. Performance-based revenue generally is based on either the ability of the Company to manage care for its clients below specified targets, or on other operating metrics. For each such contract, the Company estimates and records performance-based revenue after considering the relevant contractual terms and the data available for the performance-based revenue calculation. Pro-rata performance-based revenue is recognized on an interim basis pursuant to the rights and obligations of
42
each party upon termination of the contracts. Performance-based revenues were $16.4 million, $10.4 million and $13.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
Cost of Care, Medical Claims Payable and Other Medical Liabilities
Cost of care is recognized in the period in which members receive managed healthcare services. In addition to actual benefits paid, cost of care in a period also includes the impact of accruals for estimates of medical claims payable. Medical claims payable represents the liability for healthcare claims reported but not yet paid and IBNR related to the Company's managed healthcare businesses.
Such liabilities are determined by employing actuarial methods that are commonly used by health insurance actuaries and that meet actuarial standards of practice.
The IBNR portion of medical claims payable is estimated based on past claims payment experience for member groups, enrollment data, utilization statistics, authorized healthcare services and other factors. This data is incorporated into contract-specific actuarial reserve models and is further analyzed to create "completion factors" that represent the average percentage of total incurred claims that have been paid through a given date after being incurred. Factors that affect estimated completion factors include benefit changes, enrollment changes, shifts in product mix, seasonality influences, provider reimbursement changes, changes in claims inventory levels, the speed of claims processing, and changes in paid claim levels. Completion factors are applied to claims paid through the financial statement date to estimate the ultimate claim expense incurred for the current period. Actuarial estimates of claim liabilities are then determined by subtracting the actual paid claims from the estimate of the ultimate incurred claims. For the most recent incurred months (generally the most recent two months), the percentage of claims paid for claims incurred in those months is generally low. This makes the completion factor methodology less reliable for such months. Therefore, incurred claims for any month with a completion factor that is less than 70 percent are generally not projected from historical completion and payment patterns; rather they are projected by estimating claims expense based on recent monthly estimated cost incurred per member per month times membership, taking into account seasonality influences, benefit changes and health care trend levels, collectively considered to be "trend factors."
Medical claims payable balances are continually monitored and reviewed. If it is determined that the Company's assumptions in estimating such liabilities are significantly different than actual results, the Company's income statement and financial position could be impacted in future periods. Adjustments of prior period estimates may result in additional cost of care or a reduction of cost of care in the period an adjustment is made. Further, due to the considerable variability of health care costs, adjustments to claim liabilities occur each period and are sometimes significant as compared to the net income recorded in that period. Prior period development is recognized immediately upon the actuary's judgment that a portion of the prior period liability is no longer needed or that additional
43
liability should have been accrued. The following table presents the components of the change in medical claims payable for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008 (in thousands):

Actuarial standards of practice require that the claim liabilities be adequate under moderately adverse circumstances. Adverse circumstances are situations in which the actual claims experience could be higher than the otherwise estimated value of such claims. In many situations, the claims paid amount experienced will be less than the estimate that satisfies the actuarial standards of practice.

Care trend factors and completion factors can have a significant impact on the medical claims payable liability. The following example provides the estimated impact to the Company's December 31, 2008 unpaid medical claims payable liability assuming hypothetical changes in care trend factors and completion factors:

Approximately 70 percent of IBNR dollars is based on care trend factors.
Due to the existence of risk sharing provisions in certain customer contracts, a change in the estimate for medical claims payable does not necessarily result in an equivalent impact on cost of care.
The Company believes that the amount of medical claims payable is adequate to cover its ultimate liability for unpaid claims as of December 31, 2008; however, actual claims payments may differ from established estimates.
Other medical liabilities consist primarily of "reinvestment" payables under certain managed behavioral healthcare contracts with Medicaid customers and "profit share" payables under certain risk-based contracts. Under a contract with reinvestment features, if the cost of care is less than certain minimum amounts specified in the contract (usually as a percentage of revenue), the Company is required to "reinvest" such difference in behavioral healthcare programs when and as specified by the customer or to pay the difference to the customer for their use in funding such programs. Under a contract with profit share provisions, if the cost of care is below certain specified levels, the Company will "share" the cost savings with the customer at the percentages set forth in the contract.
Long-lived Assets
Long-lived assets, including property and equipment and intangible assets to be held and used, are currently reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount should be addressed pursuant to SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS 144"). Pursuant to this guidance, impairment is determined by comparing the carrying value of these long-lived assets to management's best estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. The cash flow projections used to make this assessment are consistent with the cash flow projections that management uses internally in making key decisions. In the event an impairment exists, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset, which
45
is generally determined by using quoted market prices or the discounted present value of expected future cash flows.
Goodwill
Goodwill is accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). Pursuant to SFAS 142, the Company is required to test its goodwill for impairment on at least an annual basis. The Company has selected October 1 as the date of its annual impairment test. The goodwill impairment test is a two-step process that requires management to make judgments in determining what assumptions to use in the calculation. The first step of the process consists of estimating the fair value of each reporting unit that has been allocated goodwill based on various valuation techniques, with the primary technique being a discounted cash flow analysis, which requires the input of various assumptions with respect to revenues, operating margins, growth rates and discount rates. The estimated fair value for each reporting unit is compared to the carrying value of the reporting unit, which includes the allocated goodwill. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying value, a second step is performed to compute the amount of the impairment by determining an "implied fair value" of goodwill. The determination of a reporting unit's "impaired fair value" of goodwill requires the Company to allocate the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit. Any unallocated fair value represents the "implied fair value" of goodwill, which is compared to its corresponding carrying value.
The key assumptions used to determine the fair value of the Company's reporting units included: (a) cash flow projections through 2013; (b) terminal values based on terminal growth rates ranging from 3 percent to 4 percent; and (c) discount rates ranging from 13 percent to 18 percent, which were based on the Company's weighted average cost of capital adjusted for the risks associated with the operations for each of the reporting units. While estimating the fair value of Radiology Benefits Management and the Specialty Pharmaceutical Management, the Company assumed operating income in future years in excess of current year results based primarily on assumed revenue growth.
As a result of the first step of the 2008 annual goodwill impairment analysis, the fair value of each reporting unit with allocated goodwill exceeded its carrying value. Therefore, the second step was not necessary. However, a 53 percent decline in fair value of the Health Plan reporting unit, an 11 percent decline in fair value of Radiology Benefits Management, or a 25 percent decline in fair value of Specialty Pharmaceutical Management would have caused the carrying values for these reporting units to be in excess of fair values, which would require the second step to be performed. The second step could have resulted in an impairment loss for goodwill.

Income Taxes
The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return for the Company and its eighty-percent or more owned subsidiaries, and the Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in various state and local jurisdictions.
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109"), as it applies to companies that have implemented the fresh start reporting provisions of SOP 90-7 with respect to reversals of valuation allowances on deferred tax assets established with fresh-start accounting. The Company estimates income taxes for each of the jurisdictions in which it operates. This process involves estimating current tax exposures together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and book purposes. Deferred tax assets and/or liabilities are determined by multiplying the differences between the financial reporting and tax reporting bases for assets and liabilities by the enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such differences are recovered or settled. The Company then assesses the likelihood that the deferred tax assets will be recovered from the reversal of temporary timing differences and future taxable income, and to the extent the Company cannot conclude that recovery is more likely than not, it establishes a valuation allowance. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred taxes is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company estimates that it has reportable federal NOLs as of December 31, 2008 of approximately $114.8 million available to reduce future federal taxable income. These estimated NOLs expire in 2011 through 2020 and are subject to examination and adjustment by the IRS. In addition, the Company's utilization of such NOLs is subject to limitation under Section 382, which affects the
47
timing of the use of these NOLs. At this time, the Company does not believe these limitations will limit the Company's ability to use any federal NOLs before they expire. Although the Company has NOLs that may be available to offset future taxable income, the Company may be subject to Federal Alternative Minimum Tax.
The Company's valuation allowances against deferred tax assets were $10.2 million and $9.4 million as of December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively, mostly relating to uncertainties regarding the eventual realization of certain state NOLs and other state deferred tax assets. Determination of the amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable required significant judgment and estimation. Changes in these estimates in the future could materially affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
The balance of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2007 and 2008 was $118.7 million and $129.2 million, respectively, most of which was included in deferred credits and other long-term liabilities, and the remainder reducing deferred tax assets. If these unrecognized tax benefits had been realized as of December 31, 2007 and 2008, $22.7 million and $22.8 million, respectively, would have impacted the effective tax rate.
Included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits recorded at December 31, 2007 and 2008 were liabilities of $5.5 million and $14.1 million, respectively, for tax positions for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. Because of the impact of deferred tax accounting, other than interest and penalties, the deferral of these deductions to later years would not affect the annual effective tax rate but could result in the acceleration of cash payments and/or reduction to the NOL carryforwards with respect to the earlier period.
With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state or local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years ended prior to December 31, 2005. Further, the statute of limitations regarding the assessment of the federal and most state and local income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2005 will expire during 2009. The Company anticipates that up to $5.4 million of unrecognized tax benefits (excluding interest costs) recorded as of December 31, 2008 could be reversed during 2009 as a result of statute expirations. All such reversals (net of the related indirect tax benefits) would be reflected as discrete adjustments during the quarter in which the respective statute expiration occurs.
Prior to 2009 and in accordance with SOP 90-7, reversals of both valuation allowances and unrecognized tax benefits with respect to years prior to the Company's reorganization were recorded to goodwill. All other reversals of these balances were recorded as reductions to income tax expense. As a result of implementation of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No.141 (R) "Business Combinations" ("SFAS 141(R)") , beginning in 2009 all reversals of valuation allowances and unrecognized tax benefits will be reflected as reductions to income tax expense, even if related to years prior to the Company's reorganization.

Commercial
Net Revenue
Net revenue related to the Commercial segment decreased by 17.2 percent or $134.9 million from 2007 to 2008. The decrease in revenue is mainly due to terminated contracts of $193.8 million and net favorable retroactive membership adjustments of $2.5 million recorded in 2007, which decreases were partially offset by increased membership from existing customers of $31.5 million, favorable rate changes of $17.7 million, favorable retroactive membership and rate adjustments of $5.1 million recorded in 2008, revenue from new contracts implemented after (or during) 2007 of $5.2 million, and other net favorable variances of $1.9 million.
Cost of Care
Cost of care decreased by 12.1 percent or $47.6 million from 2007 to 2008. The decrease in cost of care is primarily due to terminated contracts of $118.9 million, which decrease was partially offset by increased membership from existing customers of $17.0 million, favorable prior period medical claims
50
development recorded in 2007 of $6.7 million, unfavorable prior period medical claims development for 2007 which was recorded in 2008 or $5.2 million, unfavorable prior period medical claims development recorded in 2008 of $5.1 million, and care trends and other net unfavorable variances of $37.3 million. Cost of care as a percentage of risk revenue (excluding EAP revenue) increased from 68.7 percent in 2007 to 76.2 percent in 2008, mainly due to unfavorable care trends and care development, and due to business mix.
Direct Service Costs
Direct service costs decreased by 5.4 percent or $8.9 million from 2007 to 2008. The decrease in direct service costs is mainly attributable to terminated contracts, partially offset by a one-time charge in 2008 of $2.5 million associated with legal matters. Direct service costs increased as a percentage of revenue from 20.9 percent in 2007 to 23.8 percent in 2008, mainly due to business mix.
Public Sector
Net Revenue
Net revenue related to Public Sector increased by 42.2 percent or $431.1 million from 2007 to 2008. This increase is primarily due to revenue from new contracts implemented after (or during) 2007 of $413.4 million, favorable rate changes of $42.4 million, and membership increases from existing customers of $23.0 million, which increases were partially offset by a net loss of membership in connection with the West and Middle Grand Regions of TennCare of $45.3 million, and other net unfavorable variances of $2.4 million.
Cost of Care
Cost of care increased by 41.6 percent or $375.7 million from 2007 to 2008. This increase is primarily due to care associated with new contracts implemented after (or during) 2007 of $380.1 million, care associated with rate changes for contracts that have minimum cost of care requirements of $24.4 million, membership increases from existing customers of $15.6 million, favorable prior period medical claims development which was recorded in 2007 of $0.9 million, and care trends and other net variances of $9.5 million, which increases were partially offset by the net loss of membership in connection with the West and Middle Grand Regions of TennCare of $37.6 million, favorable prior period medical claims development recorded in 2008 of $8.6 million, and favorable medical claims development for 2007 which was recorded in 2008 of $8.6 million. Cost of care decreased as a percentage of risk revenue from 88.8 percent in 2007 to 88.4 percent in 2008, mainly due to favorable medical claims development and business mix.
Direct Service Costs
Direct service costs increased by 32.7 percent or $17.0 million from 2007 to 2008. The increase in direct service costs is primarily due to costs associated with new business. As a percentage of revenue, direct service costs decreased from 5.1 percent in 2007 to 4.7 percent in 2008, mainly due to business mix.
Radiology Benefits Management
Net Revenue
Net revenue related to the Radiology Benefits Management segment increased by 73.5 percent or $125.1 million from 2007 to 2008. This increase is primarily due to the conversion of an ASO contract to a risk contract during 2007 of $75.0 million, revenue from new customers implemented after (or during) 2007 of $50.7 million, favorable rate adjustments of $6.9 million, and net increased membership from existing customers of $1.0 million (inclusive of a net decrease in risk membership of $4.7 million), which increases were partially offset by terminated contracts of $7.1 million and other net unfavorable variances of $1.4 million.
51
Cost of Care
Cost of care increased by 81.7 percent or $93.3 million from 2007 to 2008. This increase is primarily due to the conversion of an ASO contract to a risk contract during 2007 of $62.6 million, care associated with new customers implemented after (or during) 2007 of $39.6 million, and other net increases of $0.3 million, which increases were partially offset by net decreased membership from existing risk customers of $5.0 million, favorable prior period claims development recorded in 2008 of $2.1 million, and favorable claims development for 2007 recorded in 2008 of $2.1 million. Cost of care decreased as a percentage of risk revenue from 96.6 percent in 2007 to 86.7 percent in 2008 mainly due to favorable rate adjustments, favorable care development and business mix.
Direct Service Costs
Direct service costs increased 11.5 percent or $5.6 million from 2007 to 2008. This increase is primarily attributed to additional costs incurred to support the new risk contract which was implemented in June 2007. As a percentage of revenue, direct service costs decreased from 28.7 percent in 2007 to 18.4 percent in 2008, mainly due to the additional revenue provided by the risk-based contracts in 2008.
Specialty Pharmaceutical Management
Net Revenue
Net revenue related to the Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segment increased 26.7 percent or $48.2 million from 2007 to 2008. This increase is primarily due to net increased distribution activity from new and existing customers of $35.2 million, increased consulting and rebate revenue of $12.2 million (including $0.5 million of retrospective rebate revenue recorded in 2008), and other net favorable variances of $0.8 million.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold increased 21.2 percent or $31.8 million from 2007 to 2008, primarily due to net increased distribution activity from new and existing customers. As a percentage of the portion of net revenue that relates to distribution revenue, cost of goods sold decreased from 92.9 percent in 2007 to 92.7 percent in 2008, mainly due to business mix.
Direct Service Costs
Direct service costs increased by 19.0 percent or $4.1 million from 2007 to 2008. This increase is primarily due to the expenses required to support the aforementioned increases to revenue. As a percentage of revenue, direct service costs decreased from 11.9 percent in 2007 to 11.2 percent in 2008, mainly due to increased distribution revenue.
Corporate and Other
Other Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses related to the Corporate and Other segment increased by 4.1 percent or $4.8 million from 2007 to 2008. The increase results primarily from expenses incurred in 2008 pursuant to the provisions of the former Chief Executive Officer's employment agreement of $10.1 million (includes $5.4 million of stock compensation expense related to the accelerated vesting for certain equity awards), and net one-time expenses incurred in 2008 of $1.7 million, which increases were partially offset by expenses incurred in 2007 related to bid proposals of $2.5 million, and net other favorable variances of $4.5 million. As a percentage of total net revenue, other operating expenses
52
decreased from 5.5 percent for 2007 to 4.7 percent for 2008, primarily due to business mix and the increased revenue from radiology risk contracts and the Maricopa Contract.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense increased by 5.7 percent or $3.3 million from 2007 to 2008, primarily due to asset additions after (or during) 2007, inclusive of assets related to the Maricopa County contract, partially offset by a decrease in amortization expense due to an intangible asset which became fully amortized in 2007.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased by 55.4 percent or $3.5 million from 2007 to 2008, mainly due to reductions in outstanding debt balances as a result of repayment of debt in 2008 in connection with the New Credit Facility and lower interest rates.
Interest Income
Interest income decreased by 28.6 percent or $6.8 million from 2007 to 2008, mainly due to lower yields.
Income Taxes
The Company's effective income tax rate was 38.3 percent in 2007 and 38.5 percent in 2008. The 2007 and 2008 effective income tax rates differ from the federal statutory income tax rate primarily due to state income taxes and permanent differences between book and tax income.
2007 compared to the year ended December 31, 2006 ("2006")
Commercial
Net Revenue
Net revenue related to the Commercial segment decreased by $0.2 million from 2006 to 2007. The decrease in revenue is mainly due to terminated contracts of $87.0 million and revenue in 2006 of $6.2 million related to one-time transitional activities associated with a terminated contract, which decreases were partially offset by revenue from new contracts implemented after (or during) 2006 of $49.8 million, favorable rate changes of $22.7 million, increased membership from existing customers of $19.4 million, and other net increases of $1.1 million.
Cost of Care
Cost of care increased by 0.1 percent or $0.3 million from 2006 to 2007. The increase in cost of care is primarily due to care from new contracts implemented after (or during) 2006 of $32.1 million, favorable contractual settlements affecting cost of care in 2006 of $5.1 million, increased membership from existing customers of $8.6 million, favorable prior period medical claims development recorded in 2006 of $4.5 million, and care trends and other net unfavorable variances of $5.8 million, which increases were partially offset by terminated contracts of $44.7 million, favorable prior period medical claims development recorded in 2007 of $6.7 million, and favorable medical claims development for 2006 which was recorded in 2007 of $4.4 million. Cost of care as a percentage of risk revenue (excluding EAP business) decreased from 69.1 percent in 2006 to 68.7 percent in 2007, mainly due to the impact of rate changes exceeding care trends partially offset by the favorable contractual settlements in the prior year.
53
Direct Service Costs
Direct service costs decreased by 5.7 percent or $9.9 million from 2006 to 2007 primarily due to terminated contracts. Direct service costs decreased as a percentage of revenue from 22.1 percent in 2006 to 20.9 percent in 2007, mainly due to favorable rate changes and business mix.
Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Subsidiaries
The Company recorded $0.4 million of equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries in 2006. The Company sold its equity interest in Royal effective February 2, 2006. Accordingly, 2007 does not include any results for Royal.
Public Sector
Net Revenue
Net revenue related to Public Sector increased by 26.2 percent or $212.2 million from 2006 to 2007. This increase is primarily due to revenue from new contracts implemented after (or during) 2006 of $294.8 million, favorable rate changes of $21.1 million, and membership increases from existing customers of $10.4 million, which increases were partially offset by a net loss of membership in connection with the Middle Grand Region of TennCare of $101.0 million, favorable prior period adjustments mainly related to membership recorded in 2006 of $10.2 million, and other net unfavorable variances of $2.9 million.
Cost of Care
Cost of care increased by 31.0 percent or $213.6 million from 2006 to 2007. This increase is primarily due to care associated with new contracts implemented after (or during) 2006 of $268.7 million (including Maricopa Contract implementation costs of $4.1 million), membership increases from existing customers of $9.1 million, care associated with rate changes for contracts that have minimum cost of care requirements of $8.3 million, favorable prior period medical claims development which was recorded in 2006 of $1.5 million, and care trends and other net variances of $18.8 million, which increases were partially offset by the net loss of membership in connection with the Middle Grand Region of TennCare of $83.3 million, prior period membership adjustments recorded in 2006 of $7.6 million, favorable medical claims development for 2006 which was recorded in 2007 of $1.0 million and favorable prior period medical claims development recorded in 2007 of $0.9 million. Cost of care increased as a percentage of risk revenue from 85.8 percent in 2006 to 88.8 percent in 2007, mainly due to business mix.
Direct Service Costs
Direct service costs increased by 43.0 percent or $15.6 million from 2006 to 2007. The increase in direct service costs is primarily due to costs associated with new business, inclusive of one-time implementation costs related to new contracts. As a percentage of revenue, direct service costs increased from 4.5 percent in 2006 to 5.1 percent in 2007, primarily due to one-time implementation costs related to new contracts and business mix.
Radiology Benefits Management
Net Revenue
Net revenue related to the Radiology Benefits Management segment increased by 309.1 percent or $128.6 million from 2006 to 2007. This increase is primarily due to revenue from new customers implemented in 2007 of $62.7 million, increased revenue due to the conversion of an ASO contract to a risk contract of $61.0 million, increased membership from existing customers of $1.7 million, and the
54
inclusion of only eleven months of operating results in 2006 due to the closing of the acquisition of NIA on January 31, 2006, which increases were partially offset by terminated contracts.
Cost of Care
Cost of care related to Radiology Benefits Management was $114.2 million for 2007 from the Company's risk-based contracts. In 2006, Radiology Benefits Management did not have any risk-based contracts. Cost of care as a percentage of risk revenue was 96.6 percent in 2007.
Direct Service Costs
Direct service costs increased 21.7 percent or $8.7 million from 2006 to 2007. This increase is primarily attributed to the inclusion of only eleven months of operating results in 2006 and to costs associated with new contracts implemented in 2007. As a percentage of revenue, direct service costs decreased from 96.4 percent in 2006 to 28.7 percent in 2007, mainly due to the implementation of two new risk contracts in 2007.
Specialty Pharmaceutical Management
Net Revenue
Net revenue related to the Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segment increased 226.5 percent or $125.1 million from 2006 to 2007. This increase is primarily attributed to the inclusion of only five months of operating results in 2006 due to the closing of the acquisition of ICORE on July 31, 2006. Other factors resulting in increased net revenue relate to revenue from new customers implemented in 2007 of $37.7 million and net increased revenue from existing customers of $10.4 million.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold increased 257.8 percent or $107.8 million from 2006 to 2007. This increase is primarily attributed to the inclusion of only five months of operating results in 2006 due to the closing of the acquisition of ICORE on July 31, 2006. Other factors resulting in increased cost of goods sold relate to cost of goods sold from new customers and increased sales from existing customers of $36.0 million and $7.9 million, respectively. As a percentage of the portion of net revenue that relates to distribution revenue, cost of goods sold increased from 90.3 percent in 2006 to 92.9 percent in 2007, mainly due to new business having higher cost of goods sold ratios than historic business and the mix of pharmaceuticals distributed in 2007 having higher cost of goods sold ratios than the mix of pharmaceuticals distributed in 2006.
Direct Service Costs
Direct service costs increased by 189.5 percent or $14.1 million from 2006 to 2007. The acquisition of ICORE closed on July 31, 2006 and thus 2006 only included five months of operating results from this segment of the Company. As a percentage of revenue, direct service costs decreased from 13.5 percent in 2006 to 11.9 percent in 2007, mainly due to the segment's stock compensation expense not varying due to new business and same store growth.
Corporate and Other
Other Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses related to the Corporate and Other segment decreased by 7.8 percent or $10.0 million from 2006 to 2007, primarily due to lower stock compensation expense for this segment. As a percentage of total net revenue, other operating expenses decreased from 7.6 percent for 2006 to 5.5 percent for 2007 primarily due to the leveraging of corporate functions in connection with the
55
acquisitions of NIA and ICORE, lower stock compensation expense for this segment, and the impact of new contracts implemented after (or during) 2006.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense increased by 17.7 percent or $8.7 million from 2006 to 2007, primarily due to asset additions, inclusive of assets related to the Maricopa County contract and the full year impact of the acquisitions of NIA and ICORE.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased by 12.4 percent or $0.9 million from 2006 to 2007, mainly due to reductions in outstanding debt balances as a result of scheduled payments.
Interest Income
Interest income increased by 35.2 percent or $6.2 million from 2006 to 2007, mainly due to an increase in average invested balances.
Other Items
A gain on the disposition of assets of $5.1 million was recognized in 2006 mainly as a result of the Company's sale of its equity interest in Royal.
Income Taxes
The Company's effective income tax rate was 42.1 percent in 2006 and 38.3 percent in 2007. The 2006 and 2007 effective income tax rates differ from the federal statutory income tax rate primarily due to state income taxes and permanent differences between book and tax income. The effective income tax rate in 2007 is lower than 2006 mainly due to the inclusion in 2006 of tax provision for certain tax contingencies related to executive compensation expense, as well as the reversal in 2007 of a portion of such tax contingency reserves.
OutlookResults of Operations
The Company's Segment Profit and net income are subject to significant fluctuations from period to period. These fluctuations may result from a variety of factors such as those set forth under Item 1A"Risk Factors" as well as a variety of other factors including: (i) changes in utilization levels by enrolled members of the Company's risk-based contracts, including seasonal utilization patterns; (ii) contractual adjustments and settlements; (iii) retrospective membership adjustments; (iv) timing of implementation of new contracts, enrollment changes and contract terminations; (v) pricing adjustments upon contract renewals (and price competition in general); and (vi) changes in estimates regarding medical costs and IBNR.
A portion of the Company's business is subject to rising care costs due to an increase in the number and frequency of covered members seeking behavioral healthcare or radiology services, and higher costs per inpatient day or outpatient visit for behavioral services, and higher costs per scan for radiology services. Many of these factors are beyond the Company's control. Future results of operations will be heavily dependent on management's ability to obtain customer rate increases that are consistent with care cost increases and/or to reduce operating expenses.
In relation to the managed behavioral healthcare business, the Company is a market leader in a mature market with many viable competitors. The Company is continuing its attempts to grow its business in the managed behavioral healthcare industry through aggressive marketing and development of new products; however, due to the maturity of the market, the Company believes that the ability to
56
grow its current business lines may be limited. In addition, as previously discussed, substantially all of the Company's Commercial segment revenues are derived from Blue Cross Blue Shield health plans and other managed care companies, health insurers and health plans. Certain of the managed care customers of the Company have decided not to renew all or part of their contracts with the Company, and to instead manage the behavioral healthcare services directly for their subscribers.
The Company believes that it will be able to expand its revenues from its Radiology Benefits Management and Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segments. The Company's first two risk-based Radiology Benefits Management contracts became effective June 1, 2007 and July 1, 2007.
Care Trends. The Company expects that the Commercial care trend factor for 2009 will be 7 to 9 percent, the Public Sector care trend factor for 2009 will be 3 to 5 percent and the Radiology Benefits Management care trend for 2009 will be 10 to 13 percent.
Interest Rate Risk. Changes in interest rates affect interest income earned on the Company's cash equivalents and investments, as well as interest expense on variable interest rate borrowings under the Company's New Credit Facility. Based on the amount of cash equivalents and investments and the borrowing levels under the New Credit Facility as of December 31, 2008, a hypothetical 10 percent increase or decrease in the interest rate associated with these instruments, with all other variables held constant, would not materially affect the Company's future earnings and cash outflows.
HistoricalLiquidity and Capital Resources
2008 compared to 2007
Operating Activities. The Company's net cash provided by operating activities for 2007 and 2008 totaled $194.6 million and $268.3 million, respectively. The $73.7 million increase in operating cash flows from 2007 to 2008 is primarily attributable to the shift of restricted cash to restricted investments, which results in an operating cash flow source that is directly offset by an investing cash flow use. During 2008, $108.7 million of restricted cash was shifted to restricted investments as compared to 2007 in which $15.0 million of restricted investments were shifted to restricted cash. As such, the year over year impact results in a $123.7 million increase in operating cash flows. In addition, the funding of restricted cash associated with the Company's regulated entities in 2008 was $36.1 million lower than 2007, mainly due to the initial funding required for the Maricopa Contract in 2007.
Partially offsetting these items is the build-up of receivables and inventory of $20.5 million associated with the growth experienced in the specialty pharmaceutical management business segment, the reduction from 2007 in the build-up of medical claims payable and other liabilities of $14.8 million associated with the risk-based radiology contracts and the funding of restricted cash in 2008 of $13.3 million associated with a risk-based radiology contract. In addition, the Company's operating cash flows were negatively impacted by the decrease in interest income and segment profit of $6.8 million and $3.7 million, respectively, from 2007 to 2008, higher current year payments associated with claims run-out for terminated contacts, with 2007 and 2008 run-out payments of $8.8 million and $13.9 million, respectively, and other net unfavorable variances of $21.9 million associated with working capital changes.
During 2008, the Company's restricted cash decreased $60.4 million, with $108.7 million of this decrease attributable to the shift of a portion of the Company's restricted cash to restricted investments. Partially offsetting this item is the funding of restricted cash of $13.3 million associated with a risk-based radiology contract, the increase in restricted cash of $34.8 million associated with the Company's regulated entities and other net increases of $0.2 million. Of the increase in restricted cash associated with the Company's regulated entities, $30.3 million is offset by changes in other assets and liabilities, primarily medical claims payable and other medical liabilities, thus having no impact on operating cash flows.
57
Investing Activities. The Company utilized $47.6 million and $36.3 million during 2007 and 2008, respectively, for capital expenditures. During 2007, the Company incurred capital expenditures of $15.0 million related to the implementation and start-up of the Maricopa County contract, with $7.0 million of this total attributable to fixed assets related to clinics that were purchased from Value Options. During 2008, capital expenditures associated with the Maricopa County contract totaled $6.5 million.
During 2007, the Company received net cash of $0.7 million from the net maturity of "available-for-sale" investments, with the Company using net cash of $176.0 million during 2008 for the net purchase of "available-for-sale" investments. The net purchase of investments during 2008 is primarily attributable to a shift of restricted cash of $108.7 million to restricted investments, as noted above. In addition, the Company purchased short-term investments from the cash generated from its operations.
During 2007 and 2008, the Company made working capital payments of $17.8 million and $0.4 million, respectively, related to the acquisition of ICORE, with the payment made during 2008 representing the final ICORE working capital payment. In addition, during 2008 the Company settled the $25.0 million deferred payment associated with the acquisition of ICORE with the previous unitholders of ICORE.
Financing Activities. During 2007, the Company received proceeds of $32.4 million from the exercise of stock options and warrants, obtained a tax benefit of $14.4 million from the exercise of stock options and had other financing related cash inflows of $0.3 million. In addition, the Company had $27.9 million of debt and capital lease payments and had a financing cash flow use of $0.5 million related to restricted stock units that were surrendered by certain employees in exchange for the payment of taxes associated with restricted stock unit awards that vested.
During 2008, the Company made payments of $136.2 million, including broker commissions, on the repurchase of Company stock in accordance with its share buy-back program, had $14.0 million of debt and capital lease payments, and had a financing cash flow use of $1.8 million related to restricted stock units that were surrendered by certain employees in exchange for the payment of taxes associated with restricted stock unit awards that vested. In addition, the Company received proceeds of $12.9 million from the exercise of stock options and warrants, obtained a tax benefit of $7.5 million from the exercise of stock options and had other financing related cash inflows of $0.4 million.
2007 compared to 2006
Operating Activities. The Company's net cash provided by operating activities for 2006 and 2007 totaled $197.0 million and $194.6 million, respectively. The $2.4 million decrease in operating cash flows from 2006 to 2007 is primarily due to the funding of restricted cash associated with the Company's regulated entities of $54.5 million, with the majority associated with the Maricopa Contract, and other net unfavorable variances of $1.7 million. Partially offsetting these items is the build-up of medical claims payable and other liabilities of $22.6 million associated with the new risk-based radiology contracts, lower current year payments associated with claims run-out for terminated contracts, with 2006 and 2007 run-out payments of $26.8 million and $8.8 million, respectively, and the increase in segment profit and interest income of $7.0 million and $6.2 million, respectively, from 2006 to 2007.
During 2007, the Company's restricted cash increased $111.7 million, with $54.5 million of this increase due to the funding associated with regulated entities as previously discussed. In addition, $42.2 million of the increase in restricted cash is offset by changes in other assets and liabilities, primarily medical claims payable and other medical liabilities, thus having no impact on operating cash flows. The increase in restricted cash was also impacted by the shift of $15.0 million of the Company's restricted investments to restricted cash, which resulted in an operating cash flow use that is directly
58
offset by an investing cash flow source. As such, this shift of investments did not impact the Company's total cash and investments.
Investing Activities. The Company utilized $25.5 million and $47.6 million during 2006 and 2007, respectively, for capital expenditures. During 2007, the Company incurred capital expenditures of $7.5 million associated with enhancements to the RBM infrastructure largely related to the implementation of systems to support risk-based contracts, which is an increase of $5.3 million from 2006. In addition, during 2007 the Company incurred capital expenditures of $15.0 million associated with the start-up and implementation of the Maricopa Contract. The remainder of the capital expenditures for 2007 and the majority of capital expenditures for 2006 related to management information systems and related equipment.
During 2006, the Company received proceeds of $22.2 million related to the sale of assets, with $20.5 million in proceeds attributable to the sale of its investment in Royal.
During 2006, the Company received net cash of $184.6 million from the net maturity of "available-for-sale" investments, a portion of which was utilized to fund the Company's acquisitions of NIA and ICORE on January 31, 2006 and July 31, 2006, respectively. During 2007, the Company received net cash of $0.7 million from the net maturity of "available-for-sale" investments.
During 2006, the Company used net cash of $120.8 million and $162.2 million related to the acquisitions of NIA and ICORE, respectively. During 2007, the Company made Working Capital Payments of $17.8 million under the ICORE agreement.
During 2006, the Company received proceeds of $3.0 million related to a previously outstanding note receivable.
Financing Activities. During 2006, the Company had $25.2 million of debt and capital lease payments. In addition, the Company received proceeds of $9.6 million from the exercise of stock options and warrants.
During 2007, the Company had $27.9 million of debt and capital lease payments. In addition, the Company received proceeds of $32.4 million from the exercise of stock options and warrants and obtained a tax benefit of $14.4 million from the exercise of stock options.
OutlookLiquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity. During 2009, the Company expects to fund its estimated capital expenditures of $25 to $35 million with cash from operations. The Company does not anticipate that it will need to draw on amounts available under the New Credit Facility for its operations, capital needs or debt service in 2009. The Company also currently expects to have adequate liquidity to satisfy its existing financial commitments over the periods in which they will become due. The Company maintains its current investment strategy of investing in a diversified, high quality, liquid portfolio of investments and continues to closely monitor the situation in the financial and credit markets. The Company estimates that it has no risk of any material permanent loss on its investment portfolio; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will not experience any such losses in the future.

In addition to the contractual obligations and commitments discussed above, the Company has a variety of other contractual agreements related to acquiring materials and services used in the Company's operations. However, the Company does not believe these other agreements contain material noncancelable commitments.
Stock Repurchase. On July 30, 2008 the Company's board of directors approved a stock repurchase plan which authorizes the Company to purchase up to $200 million of its outstanding common stock through January 31, 2010. Stock repurchases under the program may be executed through open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchases or other means. The board of directors authorized management to execute stock repurchase transactions from time to time and in such amounts and via such methods as management deems appropriate. The stock repurchase program may be limited or terminated at any time without prior notice. The Company expects to fund the stock repurchases using cash on hand. From August 1, 2008 through December 31, 2008, the Company repurchased 3,866,505 shares through the stock repurchase plan at an average share price of $35.18 per share for an aggregate cost of $136.0 million (excluding broker commissions).
During the period from January 1, 2009 through February 25, 2009, the Company made additional open market purchases of 435,800 shares at an aggregate cost of $15.6 million, excluding broker commissions and transaction fees.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. As of December 31, 2008, the Company has no material off-balance sheet arrangements.
New Credit Facility. On April 30, 2008, the Company's credit agreement with Deutsche Bank AG dated January 5, 2004, as amended (the "Credit Agreement") was terminated, and the Company entered into the New Credit Facility which provides for a $100.0 million Revolving Loan Commitment for the issuance of letters of credit for the account of the Company with a sublimit of up to $30.0 million for revolving loans. Borrowings under the New Credit Facility will mature on April 29,
60
2009. The New Credit Facility is guaranteed by substantially all of the subsidiaries of the Company and is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and the subsidiary guarantors.
Under the New Credit Facility, the annual interest rate on Revolving Loan borrowings bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of (i) a borrowing margin of 1.00 percent plus (ii) (A) in the case of U.S. dollar denominated loans, the higher of the prime rate or one-half of one percent in excess of the overnight "federal funds" rate, or (B) in the case of Eurodollar denominated loans, an interest rate which is a function of the Eurodollar rate for the selected interest period. The Company has the option to borrow in U.S. dollar denominated loans or Eurodollar denominated loans at its discretion. Letters of Credit issued under the Revolving Loan Commitment bear interest at the rate of 1.125 percent. The commitment commission on the New Credit Facility will be 0.375 percent of the unused Revolving Loan Commitment.
Restrictive Covenants in Debt Agreements. The New Credit Facility contains covenants that limit management's discretion in operating the Company's business by restricting or limiting the Company's ability, among other things, to:
These restrictions could adversely affect the Company's ability to finance future operations or capital needs or engage in other business activities that may be in the Company's interest.
The New Credit Facility also requires the Company to comply with specified financial ratios and tests. Failure to do so, unless waived by the lenders under the New Credit Facility pursuant to its terms, would result in an event of default under the New Credit Facility.
Net Operating Loss Carryforwards. The Company estimates that it has reportable federal NOLs as of December 31, 2008 of approximately $114.8 million available to reduce future federal taxable income. These estimated NOLs expire in 2011 through 2020 and are subject to examination and adjustment by the IRS. In addition, the Company's utilization of such NOLs is subject to limitation under Section 382, which affects the timing of the use of these NOLs. At this time, the Company does not believe these limitations will limit the Company's ability to use any federal NOLs before they expire. Although the Company has NOLs that may be available to offset future taxable income, the Company may be subject to Federal Alternative Minimum Tax.
As of December 31, 2008, the Company's valuation allowances against deferred tax assets were $9.4 million, mostly relating to uncertainties regarding the eventual realization of certain state NOLs and other state deferred tax assets. Determination of the amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable required significant judgment and estimation. Changes in these estimates in the future could materially affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" ("SFAS 157"). SFAS 157 provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. It also responds to investors' requests for expanded information about the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. SFAS 157 applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value, and does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 ("FSP 157-2"), which delays the effective date of SFAS 157 by one year for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS 157 for financial assets and liabilities. The adoption did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. The Company has not yet determined the impact on its consolidated financial statements, if any, from the adoption of SFAS 157, as it pertains to non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial LiabilitiesIncluding an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115" ("SFAS 159"). SFAS 159 permits entities to elect to measure financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by allowing entities to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. SFAS 159 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. The Company did not elect the fair value option for any of the Company's existing financial instruments on January 1, 2008 and has not determined whether or not the Company will elect this option for any eligible financial instruments the Company acquires in the future.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141(R) and SFAS No. 160, "Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements" ("SFAS 160"). SFAS 141(R) requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to record all assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their respective acquisition-date fair values and changes other practices under SFAS 141, some of which could have a material impact on how the Company accounts for business combinations. SFAS 141(R) also requires additional disclosure of information surrounding a business combination, such that users of the entity's financial statements can fully understand the nature and financial impact of the business combination. SFAS 160 requires entities to report non-controlling (minority) interests in subsidiaries as equity in the consolidated financial statements. The Company is required to adopt SFAS 141(R) and SFAS 160 simultaneously in the Company's year beginning January 1, 2009. Prior to 2009 and in accordance with SOP 90-7, reversals of both valuation allowances and unrecognized tax benefits with respect to years prior to the Company's reorganization were recorded to goodwill. All other reversals of these balances were recorded as reductions to income tax expense. As a result of the implementation of SFAS 141(R), beginning in 2009 all reversals of valuation allowances and unrecognized tax benefits will be reflected as reductions to income tax expense, even if related to years prior to the Company's reorganization. The Company is currently evaluating the effects, if any, that SFAS 160 may have on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Changes in interest rates affect interest income earned on the Company's cash equivalents and restricted cash and investments, as well as interest expense on variable interest rate borrowings under the New Credit Facility. Based on the Company's investment balances, and the borrowing levels under
62
the New Credit Facility as of December 31, 2008, a hypothetical 10 percent increase or decrease in the interest rate associated with these instruments, with all other variables held constant, would not materially affect the Company's future earnings and cash outflows.
Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
Information with respect to this item is contained in the Company's consolidated financial statements set forth elsewhere herein and financial statement schedule indicated in the Index on Page F-1 of this Report on Form 10-K, and is included herein.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company's management evaluated, with the participation of the Company's principal executive and principal financial officers, the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), as of December 31, 2008. Based on their evaluation, management has concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2008.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
In the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2008, there have been no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal controls over financial reporting.
MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
The Company's management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). The Company's internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company assessed the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in its statement "Internal Control-Integrated Framework."
Based on this assessment, management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2008, internal control over financial reporting is effective based on these criteria.
The Company's independent registered public accounting firm has issued an audit report on the Company's internal control over financial reporting. This report dated February 25, 2009 appears on page 64 of this Form 10-K.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Magellan Health Services, Inc.
We have audited Magellan Health Services, Inc.'s ("the Company") internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the "COSO criteria"). The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Magellan Health Services, Inc. as of December 31, 2007 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008 of Magellan Health Services, Inc. and our report dated February 25, 2009 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

At its meeting on February 25, 2009, the board of directors of the Company appointed Eran Broshy as a director to fill the unexpired term of Barry Smith, who resigned from the board on October 29, 2009 as a result of his acceptance of a non-paid position as mission President for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in North Texas. Mr. Broshy currently serves as the Executive Chairman of the board of directors of inVentiv Health, Inc, a public company providing a broad range of outsourced services to global pharmaceutical and life sciences companies. In connection with his appointment, the board approved a grant of restricted stock of the Company to be made to Mr. Broshy on March 2, 2009, which represents a pro-rated grant of restricted stock for his service on the board from February 25, 2009 until the 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company. The number of shares of restricted stock to be granted to Mr. Broshy shall be determined by dividing $28,082.54 by the closing price of a share of Common Stock of the Company on NASDAQ on March 2, 2009. Such restricted stock will vest on May 20, 2009, the vesting date for annual restricted stock awards made on May, 20 2008 to other non-management directors of the Company for their service since the 2008 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company. Mr. Broshy was also appointed to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the board.
On February 24, 2009, Allen Wise resigned from the board of directors of the Company as a result of his appointment as Chief Executive Officer of Coventry Healthcare, Inc. The board decided not to fill the vacancy created by Mr. Wise's resignation and to reduce the size of the board from 10 members to 9 members as authorized by the Company's By-Laws. As a result, there remains one vacancy on the board, and the board is currently conducting a search for a new director to fill the unexpired term of Steven Shulman who, as previously reported, resigned from the board by notice to the Company on February 17, 2009, effective on February 25, 2009.
The board also appointed Rene Lerer as Chairman of the Board.
The information required by Items 10 through 14 is incorporated by reference to the Registrant's definitive proxy statement to be filed pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, within 120 days after December 31, 2008.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company at December 31, 2007 and 2008, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008
1. General
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of Magellan Health Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Magellan"), include the accounts of Magellan, its majority owned subsidiaries and all variable interest entities ("VIEs") for which Magellan is the primary beneficiary (together with Magellan, the "Company"). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Business Overview
The Company is engaged in the specialty managed healthcare business. Through 2005, the Company predominantly operated in the managed behavioral healthcare business. During 2006, the Company expanded into radiology benefits management and specialty pharmaceutical management as a result of certain acquisitions. The Company provides services to health plans, insurance companies, corporations, labor unions and various governmental agencies. The Company's business is divided into five segments, based on the services it provides and/or the customers that it serves, as described below.
Managed Behavioral Healthcare
Two of the Company's segments are in the managed behavioral healthcare business. This line of business generally reflects the Company's coordination and management of the delivery of behavioral healthcare treatment services that are provided through its contracted network of third-party treatment providers, which includes psychiatrists, psychologists, other behavioral health professionals, psychiatric hospitals, general medical facilities with psychiatric beds, residential treatment centers and other treatment facilities. The treatment services provided through the Company's provider network include outpatient programs (such as counseling or therapy), intermediate care programs (such as intensive outpatient programs and partial hospitalization services), inpatient treatment and crisis intervention services. The Company generally does not directly provide, or own any provider of, treatment services except as relates to the Company's contract to provide managed behavioral healthcare services to Medicaid recipients and other beneficiaries of the Maricopa County Regional Behavioral Health Authority (the "Maricopa Contract"). Under the Maricopa Contract, effective August 31, 2007 the Company was required to assume the operations of twenty-four behavioral health direct care facilities for a transitional period and to divest itself of these facilities over a two year period. During August and October 2008, the Company entered into agreements with two separate Provider Network Organizations ("PNOs") which resulted in the transition of thirteen of such behavioral health direct care facilities to the PNOs over various dates through February 2009. During March 2009, the Company will begin the operation of two additional behavioral health direct care facilities and the Company expects to divest itself of these facilities before August 31, 2009.
The Company provides its management services primarily through: (i) risk-based products, where the Company assumes all or a substantial portion of the responsibility for the cost of providing treatment services in exchange for a fixed per member per month fee, (ii) administrative services only ("ASO") products, where the Company provides services such as utilization review, claims administration and/or provider network management, but does not assume responsibility for the cost of the treatment services, and (iii) employee assistance programs ("EAPs") where the Company provides short-term outpatient behavioral counseling services.

1. General (Continued)
The managed behavioral healthcare business is managed based on the services provided and/or the customers served, through the following two segments:
Commercial. The Managed Behavioral Healthcare Commercial segment ("Commercial") generally reflects managed behavioral healthcare services and EAP services provided under contracts with managed care companies, health insurers and other health plans for some or all of their commercial, Medicaid and Medicare members, as well as with employers, including corporations and governmental agencies, and labor unions. Commercial's managed behavioral healthcare contracts encompass risk-based, ASO and EAP arrangements. This segment contains the operating segments previously defined as the Managed Behavioral Healthcare Health Plan Segment ("Health Plan") and the Managed Behavioral Healthcare Employer segment ("Employer"). Prior period balances have been reclassified to reflect this change. The Company now considers Commercial as one segment and it is managed as such.
Public Sector. The Managed Behavioral Healthcare Public Sector segment ("Public Sector") generally reflects managed behavioral healthcare services provided to Medicaid recipients under contracts with state and local governmental agencies. Public Sector contracts encompass either risk-based or ASO arrangements.
Radiology Benefits Management
The Radiology Benefits Management segment generally reflects the management of the delivery of diagnostic imaging services to ensure that such services are clinically appropriate and cost effective. The Company's radiology benefits management services currently are provided under contracts with managed care companies, health insurers and other health plans for some or all of their commercial, Medicaid and Medicare members. The Company has bid on contracts with state and local governmental agencies for the provision of such services to Medicaid recipients. The Company has won one state Medicaid contract, which was implemented in July 2008. The Company offers its radiology benefits management services through ASO contracts, where the Company provides services such as utilization review and claims administration, but does not assume responsibility for the cost of the imaging services, and through risk-based contracts, where the Company assumes all or a substantial portion of the responsibility for the cost of providing diagnostic imaging services. The Company's first two risk-based radiology benefits management contracts became effective June 1, 2007 and July 1, 2007.
Specialty Pharmaceutical Management
The Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segment generally reflects the management of specialty drugs used in the treatment of cancer, multiple sclerosis, hemophilia, infertility, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic forms of hepatitis and other diseases. Specialty pharmaceutical drugs represent high-cost injectible, infused, oral, or inhaled drugs which traditional retail pharmacies often do not supply due to their high cost, sensitive handling, and storage needs. The Company's specialty pharmaceutical management services are provided under contracts with managed care companies, health insurers and other health plans for some or all of their commercial, Medicare and Medicaid members. The Company's specialty pharmaceutical services include (i) contracting and formulary optimization on behalf of health plans and pharmaceutical manufacturers; (ii) distributing specialty pharmaceutical

drugs on behalf of health plans; (iii) providing strategic consulting services to health plans and pharmaceutical manufacturers; and (iv) providing oncology management services to health plans.
Corporate and Other
This segment of the Company is comprised primarily of operational support functions such as sales and marketing and information technology, as well as corporate support functions such as executive, finance, human resources and legal.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 157 ("SFAS 157"), which provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. It also responds to investors' requests for expanded information about the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. SFAS 157 applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value, and does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 ("FSP 157-2"), which delays the effective date of SFAS 157 by one year for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS 157 for financial assets and liabilities. The adoption did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. The Company has not yet determined the impact on its consolidated financial statements, if any, from the adoption of SFAS 157, as it pertains to non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial LiabilitiesIncluding an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115" ("SFAS 159"). SFAS 159 permits entities to elect to measure financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by allowing entities to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. SFAS 159 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. The Company did not elect the fair value option for any of the Company's existing financial instruments on January 1, 2008 and has not determined whether or not the Company will elect this option for any eligible financial instruments the Company acquires in the future.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R) "Business Combinations" ("SFAS 141(R)") and SFAS No. 160, "Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements" ("SFAS 160"). SFAS 141(R) requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to record all assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their respective acquisition-date fair values and changes other practices under SFAS 141, some of which could have a material impact on how the Company accounts for business combinations. SFAS 141(R) also requires additional disclosure of information surrounding a business

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
combination, such that users of the entity's financial statements can fully understand the nature and financial impact of the business combination. SFAS 160 requires entities to report non-controlling (minority) interests in subsidiaries as equity in the consolidated financial statements. The Company is required to adopt SFAS 141(R) and SFAS 160 simultaneously in the Company's year beginning January 1, 2009. Prior to 2009 and in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("AICPA") Statement of Position ("SOP") 90-7, "Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code" ("SOP 90-7"), reversals of both valuation allowances and unrecognized tax benefits with respect to years prior to the Company's reorganization were recorded to goodwill. All other reversals of these balances were recorded as reductions to income tax expense. As a result of the implementation of SFAS 141(R), beginning in 2009 all reversals of valuation allowances and unrecognized tax benefits will be reflected as reductions to income tax expense, even if related to years prior to the Company's reorganization. The Company is currently evaluating the effects, if any, that SFAS 160 may have on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates of the Company include, among other things, accounts receivable realization, valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, medical claims payable, other medical liabilities, stock compensation assumptions, tax contingencies and legal liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Managed Care Revenue
Managed care revenue, inclusive of revenue from the Company's risk, EAP and ASO contracts, is recognized over the applicable coverage period on a per member basis for covered members. The Company is paid a per member fee for all enrolled members, and this fee is recorded as revenue in the month in which members are entitled to service. The Company adjusts its revenue for retroactive membership terminations, additions and other changes, when such adjustments are identified, with the exception of retroactivity that can be reasonably estimated. Any fees paid prior to the month of service are recorded as deferred revenue. Managed care revenues approximated $1.6 billion, $1.9 billion and $2.2 billion for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
Cost-Plus Contracts
The Company has certain cost-plus contracts with customers under which the Company recognizes revenue as costs are incurred and as services are performed. Revenues from cost-plus contracts approximated $32.3 million, $30.5 million and $31.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Block Grant Revenues
The Maricopa Contract is partially funded by federal, state and county block grant money, which represents annual appropriations. The Company recognizes revenue from block grant activity ratably over the period to which the block grant funding applies. Block grant revenues were approximately $40.6 million and $120.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
Distribution Revenue
The Company recognizes distribution revenue, which includes the co-payments received from members of the health plans the Company serves, when the specialty pharmaceutical drugs are shipped. At the time of shipment, the earnings process is complete; the obligation of the Company's customer to pay for the specialty pharmaceutical drugs is fixed, and, due to the nature of the product, the member may neither return the specialty pharmaceutical drugs nor receive a refund. Revenues from the distribution of specialty pharmaceutical drugs on behalf of health plans were $46.3 million, $160.6 million and $195.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
Performance-Based Revenue
The Company has the ability to earn performance-based revenue under certain risk and non-risk contracts. Performance-based revenue generally is based on either the ability of the Company to manage care for its clients below specified targets, or on other operating metrics. For each such contract, the Company estimates and records performance-based revenue after considering the relevant contractual terms and the data available for the performance-based revenue calculation. Pro-rata performance-based revenue is recognized on an interim basis pursuant to the rights and obligations of each party upon termination of the contracts. Performance-based revenues were $16.4 million, $10.4 million and $13.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
Significant Customers
Consolidated Company
The Company's contracts with the State of Tennessee's TennCare program ("TennCare") and with subsidiaries of WellPoint, Inc. ("WellPoint") each generated net revenues that exceeded, in the aggregate, ten percent of net revenues for the consolidated Company for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007. In addition to TennCare, the Company's Maricopa Contract generated net revenues that exceeded, in the aggregate, ten percent of net revenues for the consolidated Company for the year ended December 31, 2008. The Company also has a significant concentration of business from contracts with various counties in the State of Pennsylvania (the "Pennsylvania Counties") which are part of the Pennsylvania Medicaid program.
The Maricopa Contract, which began September 1, 2007 and which extends through June 30, 2010, generated net revenues of $196.1 million and $621.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
The TennCare program is divided into three regions, and through March 31, 2007 the Company's TennCare contracts encompassed all of the TennCare membership for all three regions. As of April 1,

2007 substantially all of the membership in the Middle Grand Region was re-assigned to managed care companies in accordance with contract awards by TennCare pursuant to its request for proposals for the management of the integrated delivery of behavioral and physical medical care to the region. Substantially all of the membership in the West Grand and East Grand Regions was similarly re-assigned to managed care companies in accordance with contract awards by TennCare effective November 1, 2008 and January 1, 2009, respectively. The Company continues to manage behavioral healthcare services for children enrolled in TennCare Select High, statewide, as well as for certain out-of-state TennCare members pursuant to contracts that extend through June 30, 2009. The Company recorded net revenues of $416.4 million, $316.9 million and $282.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively, from its TennCare contracts. The portion of the total net revenues associated with the programs for children and out-of-state members referred to above was $47.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Total net revenues from the Company's contracts with WellPoint were $200.2 million, $218.9 million and $186.7 million during the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively, including radiology benefits management revenue of $12.6 million, $77.8 million and $162.5 million, respectively. One of the Company's managed behavioral healthcare contracts with WellPoint was terminated by WellPoint effective March 31, 2007, and generated net revenues of $26.0 million during 2007. A second managed behavioral healthcare contract with WellPoint expired December 31, 2007 and generated net revenues of $85.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2007.
In July 2007, WellPoint acquired a radiology benefits management company, and has expressed its intent to in-source all of its radiology benefits management contracts when such contracts expire. The Company has several radiology benefits management contracts with WellPoint including one that converted from an ASO arrangement to a risk arrangement effective July 1, 2007. Such risk contract originally had a three-year term through June 30, 2010, and cannot be terminated early, except for cause, as defined in the agreement. The term of this risk contract has been extended through December 31, 2010. The Company's other radiology benefits management contracts with WellPoint generated $11.4 million of net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2008. Substantially all of this revenue relates to contracts that have terminated at various dates in 2008.
Net revenues from the Pennsylvania Counties in the aggregate totaled $248.2 million, $262.6 million and $288.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
By Segment
WellPoint generated greater than ten percent of net revenues for the Commercial segment for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007. Two other customers generated greater than ten percent of Commercial net revenues for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008. The first customer has a contract that extends through December 31, 2012 and generated net revenues of $153.2 million, $175.4 million and $217.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively. The second customer has a contract that extends through June 30, 2009 and generated net revenues of $82.9 million, $89.3 million and $90.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively.

Maricopa and TennCare were the only customers with net revenues greater than ten percent of the net revenues for the Public Sector segment for the year ended December 31, 2008. In addition to TennCare in 2006, and Maricopa and TennCare in 2007, one customer generated revenues greater than ten percent of the net revenues for the Public Sector segment for such years. This customer has a contract that extends through December 31, 2009 and generated net revenues of $121.0 million, $124.7 million and $140.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
In addition to WellPoint, two other customers generated greater than ten percent of the net revenues for the Radiology Benefits Management segment for the year ended December 31, 2006. The two customers generated $5.2 million and $4.8 million of net revenues during the year ended December 31, 2006. In addition to WellPoint, one other customer generated greater than ten percent of the net revenues for the Radiology Benefits Management segment for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008. This customer has a contract that extends through May 31, 2011 and generated net revenues of $61.3 million and $96.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
Included in the Company's Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segment are three customers that each exceeded ten percent of the net revenues for this line of business for the year ended December 31, 2006. The three customers generated $24.8 million, $11.7 million and $9.6 million of net revenues in 2006. Included in the Company's Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segment are four customers that each exceeded ten percent of the net revenues for this segment for the year ended December 31, 2007. The four customers generated $60.0 million, $34.4 million, $33.6 million and $24.9 million of net revenues during the year ended December 31, 2007. For the year ended December 31, 2008, five customers each exceeded ten percent of the net revenues for this segment. Four of such customers generated $71.9 million, $49.5 million, $28.0 million, and $26.8 million of net revenues during the year ended December 31, 2008. The other contract generated net revenues of $27.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, and this contract terminated December 31, 2008.
Income Taxes
The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return for the Company and its eighty-percent or more owned subsidiaries, and the Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in various state and local jurisdictions.
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109"), as it applies to companies that have implemented the fresh start reporting provisions of SOP 90-7, with respect to reversals of valuation allowances on deferred tax assets established with fresh-start accounting. The Company estimates income taxes for each of the jurisdictions in which it operates. This process involves estimating current tax exposures together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and book purposes. Deferred tax assets and/or liabilities are determined by multiplying the differences between the financial reporting and tax reporting bases for assets and liabilities by the enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such differences are recovered or settled. The Company then assesses the likelihood that the deferred tax assets will be recovered from the reversal of temporary timing differences and

future taxable income, and to the extent the Company cannot conclude that recovery is more likely than not, it establishes a valuation allowance. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred taxes is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" ("FIN 48"), on January 1, 2007. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Company recognized an increase of $5.8 million in its liability for unrecognized tax benefits and a net decrease of $6.0 million to its deferred tax assets, which were recorded as a reduction to retained earnings of $12.3 million and a decrease to goodwill of $0.5 million.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid interest-bearing investments with maturity dates of three months or less when purchased, consisting primarily of money market instruments. The Company records as cash and cash equivalents, excess capital and undistributed earnings for its regulated subsidiaries, which as of December 31, 2008 was $45.8 million.
Restricted Assets
The Company has certain assets which are considered restricted for: (i) the payment of claims under the terms of certain managed care contracts; (ii) regulatory purposes related to the payment of claims in certain jurisdictions; and (iii) the maintenance of minimum required tangible net equity levels for certain of the Company's subsidiaries. Significant restricted assets of the Company as of December 31, 2007 and 2008 were as follows (in thousands):

Investments
Investments consist primarily of U.S. Government and agency securities, obligations of government-sponsored enterprises, corporate debt securities, and certificates of deposit. Investments classified as "available-for-sale" are carried at fair value, based on quoted market prices. The Company's policy is to classify all investments with contractual maturities within one year as current. Investment income is recognized when earned and reported net of investment expenses. Net unrealized holding gains or losses are excluded from earnings and are reported, net of tax, as "accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, statements of income and statements of changes in stockholders' equity until realized, unless the losses are deemed to be other-than-temporary. Realized gains or losses, including any provision for other-than-temporary declines in value, are included in the consolidated statements of income.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
The Company periodically evaluates whether any declines in the fair value of investments are other-than-temporary. This evaluation consists of a review of several factors, including but not limited to: the length of time and extent that a security has been in an unrealized loss position; the existence of an event that would impair the issuer's future earnings potential; the near-term prospects for recovery of the market value of a security; and the intent and ability of the Company to hold the security until the market value recovers. Declines in value below cost for investments where it is considered probable that all contractual terms of the investment will be satisfied, is due primarily to changes in interest rates (and not because of increased credit risk), and where the Company intends and has the ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow a market recovery, are not assumed to be other-than-temporary. The Company periodically reviews those investment securities whose unrealized losses have remained unrealized for more than six months to determine if such unrealized losses are other-than-temporary. Unrealized losses related to investments greater and less than one year are not material.
The Company believes the declines in fair value of its investment securities were caused by changes in market interest rates and overall economic and market uncertainties and expects to receive all amounts due upon the investment maturing. The Company intends to hold these related investment securities to maturity and has the ability to do so. As of December 31, 2007 and 2008, there were no unrealized losses that the Company believed to be other-than-temporary. No realized gains or losses were recorded for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 or 2008.

Accounts Receivable
The Company's accounts receivable consists of amounts due from customers throughout the United States. Collateral is generally not required. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information. Management believes the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate to provide for normal credit losses.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Accounts receivable subjects the Company to a concentration of credit risk with third party payors that include health insurance companies, managed healthcare organizations, healthcare providers and governmental entities.
Long-lived Assets
Long-lived assets, including property and equipment and intangible assets to be held and used, are currently reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount should be addressed pursuant to SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS 144"). Pursuant to this guidance, impairment is determined by comparing the carrying value of these long-lived assets to management's best estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. The cash flow projections used to make this assessment are consistent with the cash flow projections that management uses internally in making key decisions. In the event an impairment exists, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset, which is generally determined by using quoted market prices or the discounted present value of expected future cash flows.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is stated at cost, except for assets that have been impaired, for which the carrying amount has been reduced to estimated fair value. Expenditures for renewals and improvements are capitalized to the property accounts. Replacements and maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the life of the respective assets are expensed as incurred. Internal-use software is capitalized in accordance with SOP 98-1, "Accounting for Cost of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use" ("SOP 98-1"). Amortization of capital lease assets is included

in depreciation expense and is included in accumulated depreciation as reflected in the table below. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which is generally two to ten years for buildings and improvements (or the lease term, if shorter), three to fifteen years for equipment and three to five years for capitalized internal-use software. Depreciation expense was $36.3 million, $41.3 million and $52.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively.

Goodwill
Goodwill is accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). Pursuant to SFAS 142, the Company is required to test its goodwill for impairment on at least an annual basis. The Company has selected October 1 as the date of its annual impairment test. The goodwill impairment test is a two-step process that requires management to make judgments in determining what assumptions to use in the calculation. The first step of the process consists of estimating the fair value of each reporting unit that has been allocated goodwill based on various valuation techniques, with the primary technique being a discounted cash flow analysis, which requires the input of various assumptions with respect to revenues, operating margins, growth rates and discount rates. The estimated fair value for each reporting unit is compared to the carrying value of the reporting unit, which includes the allocated goodwill. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying value, a second step is performed to compute the amount of the impairment by determining an "implied fair value" of goodwill. The determination of a reporting unit's "impaired fair value" of goodwill requires the Company to allocate the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit. Any unallocated fair value represents the "implied fair value" of goodwill, which is compared to its corresponding carrying value.
The key assumptions used to determine the fair value of the Company's reporting units included: (a) cash flow projections through 2013; (b) terminal values based on terminal growth rates ranging from 3 percent to 4 percent; and (c) discount rates ranging from 13 percent to 18 percent, which were based on the Company's weighted average cost of capital adjusted for the risks associated with the operations for each of the reporting units. While estimating the fair value of Radiology Benefits Management and the Specialty Pharmaceutical Management, the Company assumed operating income in future years in excess of current year results based primarily on assumed revenue growth.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
As a result of the first step of the 2008 annual goodwill impairment analysis, the fair value of each reporting unit with allocated goodwill exceeded its carrying value. Therefore, the second step was not necessary. However, a 53 percent decline in fair value of the Health Plan reporting unit, an 11 percent decline in fair value of Radiology Benefits Management, or a 25 percent decline in fair value of Specialty Pharmaceutical Management would have caused the carrying values for these reporting units to be in excess of fair values, which would require the second step to be performed. The second step could have resulted in an impairment loss for goodwill.
The balance of goodwill has been allocated to the Company's segments (as defined in Note 1"General") as follows (in thousands):

Amortization expense was $12.6 million, $16.2 million and $8.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively. The Company estimates amortization expense will be $7.8 million, $6.8 million, $6.6 million, $6.6 million and $6.6 million for the years ending December 31, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013, respectively.
Cost of Care, Medical Claims Payable and Other Medical Liabilities
Cost of care is recognized in the period in which members receive managed healthcare services. In addition to actual benefits paid, cost of care in a period also includes the impact of accruals for estimates of medical claims payable. Medical claims payable represents the liability for healthcare claims reported but not yet paid and claims incurred but not yet reported ("IBNR") related to the Company's managed healthcare businesses.
Such liabilities are determined by employing actuarial methods that are commonly used by health insurance actuaries and that meet actuarial standards of practice.
The IBNR portion of medical claims payable is estimated based on past claims payment experience for member groups, enrollment data, utilization statistics, authorized healthcare services and other factors. This data is incorporated into contract-specific actuarial reserve models and is further analyzed to create "completion factors" that represent the average percentage of total incurred claims that have been paid through a given date after being incurred. Factors that affect estimated completion factors include benefit changes, enrollment changes, shifts in product mix, seasonality influences, provider reimbursement changes, changes in claims inventory levels, the speed of claims processing, and
F-19
MAGELLAN HEALTH SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
changes in paid claim levels. Completion factors are applied to claims paid through the financial statement date to estimate the ultimate claim expense incurred for the current period. Actuarial estimates of claim liabilities are then determined by subtracting the actual paid claims from the estimate of the ultimate incurred claims. For the most recent incurred months (generally the most recent two months), the percentage of claims paid for claims incurred in those months is generally low. This makes the completion factor methodology less reliable for such months. Therefore, incurred claims for any month with a completion factor that is less than 70 percent are generally not projected from historical completion and payment patterns; rather they are projected by estimating claims expense based on recent monthly estimated cost incurred per member per month times membership, taking into account seasonality influences, benefit changes and health care trend levels, collectively considered to be "trend factors."
Medical claims payable balances are continually monitored and reviewed. If it is determined that the Company's assumptions in estimating such liabilities are significantly different than actual results, the Company's results of operations and financial position could be impacted in future periods. Adjustments of prior period estimates may result in additional cost of care or a reduction of cost of care in the period an adjustment is made. Further, due to the considerable variability of health care costs, adjustments to claim liabilities occur each period and are sometimes significant as compared to the net income recorded in that period. Prior period development is recognized immediately upon the

actuary's judgment that a portion of the prior period liability is no longer needed or that additional liability should have been accrued. The following table presents the components of the change in medical claims payable for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008 (in thousands):

Actuarial standards of practice require that the claim liabilities be adequate under moderately adverse circumstances. Adverse circumstances are situations in which the actual claims experience could be higher than the otherwise estimated value of such claims. In many situations, the claims paid amount experienced will be less than the estimate that satisfies the actuarial standards of practice.
Due to the existence of risk sharing provisions in certain customer contracts, principally in the Public Sector segment, a change in the estimate for medical claims payable does not necessarily result in an equivalent impact on cost of care.
The Company believes that the amount of medical claims payable is adequate to cover its ultimate liability for unpaid claims as of December 31, 2008; however, actual claims payments may differ from established estimates.
Other medical liabilities consist primarily of "reinvestment" payables under certain managed behavioral healthcare contracts with Medicaid customers and "profit share" payables under certain
F-21

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

risk-based contracts. Under a contract with reinvestment features, if the cost of care is less than certain minimum amounts specified in the contract (usually as a percentage of revenue), the Company is required to "reinvest" such difference in behavioral healthcare programs when and as specified by the customer or to pay the difference to the customer for their use in funding such programs. Under a contract with profit share provisions, if the cost of care is below certain specified levels, the Company will "share" the cost savings with the customer at the percentages set forth in the contract.
Net Income per Common Share
Net income per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the period (see Note 7"Stockholders' Equity").
Stock Compensation
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004) "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS 123R"), using the modified prospective transition method. Under this transition method, stock compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008 includes compensation expense for all stock compensation awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"). Stock compensation expense for all stock compensation awards granted after January 1, 2006 is based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R. The Company recognizes substantially all of these compensation costs on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting term ranging from three to four years.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton formula to estimate the fair value of substantially all stock options granted to employees and recorded stock compensation expense of $34.0 million, $30.0 million and $32.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively. As stock compensation expense recognized in the consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008 is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has been reduced for estimated forfeitures of two percent, two percent and eight percent, respectively, as required by SFAS 123R. If the actual number of forfeitures differs from those estimated, additional adjustments to compensation expense may be required in future periods. If vesting of an award is conditioned upon the achievement of performance goals, compensation expense during the performance period is estimated using the most probable outcome of the performance goals, and adjusted as the expected outcome changes.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company adopted SFAS 157 on January 1, 2008. SFAS 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The standard outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of
F-22
MAGELLAN HEALTH SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
fair value measurements and the related disclosures. Under generally accepted accounting practices, certain assets and liabilities must be measured at fair value, and SFAS 157 details the disclosures that are required for items measured at fair value.
The Company has various financial instruments that must be measured under the new fair value standard including investments, which consist primarily of U.S. Government securities, obligations of government-sponsored enterprises, corporate debt securities and certificates of deposit. Pursuant to SFAS 157, financial assets and liabilities are to be measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy, which are as follows:
Level 1Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).
Level 3Unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company develops these inputs based on the best information available, including the Company's data.
In accordance with the fair value hierarchy described above, the following table shows the fair value of the Company's financial assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value as of December 31, 2008 (in thousands):

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
3. Acquisitions and Joint Ventures
As of December 31, 2005, the Company owned a 37.5 percent interest in Royal Health Care, LLC ("Royal"). Royal was a managed services organization that received management fees for the provision of administrative, marketing, management and support services to seven managed care organizations. Royal did not provide any services to the Company. Effective February 2, 2006, the Company sold its Royal ownership interest back to Royal in exchange for cash proceeds of $20.5 million.
Acquisition of National Imaging Associates
On January 31, 2006, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of NIA, a privately held radiology benefits management ("RBM") firm, for approximately $121 million in cash, after giving effect to cash acquired in the transaction, and NIA became a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company reports the results of operations of NIA in the Radiology Benefits Management segment.
Acquisition of ICORE Healthcare, LLC
On July 31, 2006, the Company acquired all of the outstanding units of membership interest of ICORE, a specialty pharmaceutical management company, and ICORE became a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company reports the results of operations of ICORE in the Specialty Pharmaceutical Management segment.
The Company paid or agreed to pay to the previous unitholders of ICORE, all of whom are members of ICORE's management team, (i) $161 million of cash at closing; (ii) $24 million of cash that was used by the unitholders of ICORE to purchase Magellan restricted stock with such restricted stock vesting over three years, provided the unitholders do not earlier terminate their employment with Magellan; (iii) $25 million plus accrued interest (the "Deferred Payment"), subject to any indemnity claims Magellan may have under the purchase agreement; (iv) the amount of positive working capital that existed at ICORE on the closing date (the "Working Capital Payments"), which was $18.2 million of which $17.8 million was paid during 2007 with the remainder paid in January 2008; and (v) a potential earn-out of up to $75 million (the "Earn-Out"), provided the unitholders do not earlier terminate their employment with the Company prior to the payment of the Earn-Out. The $161 million of cash paid at closing, the $25 million Deferred Payment and $18.2 million of Working Capital Payments were recorded as purchase price. The $24 million of restricted stock is being recognized as stock compensation expense over the three year vesting period. The $24 million in restricted stock paid at the closing was issued in a transaction pursuant to which the unitholders of ICORE at closing applied $24 million of the purchase price as cash consideration for their purchase of restricted shares of the Company's common stock. The unitholders subscribed to an aggregate of 543,879 restricted shares of the Company's common stock on a basis proportional to each unitholder's economic interest in ICORE at a purchase price of $44.13 per share, which was the average of the closing prices of the Company's common stock on NASDAQ for the twenty trading days immediately preceding the closing. The Deferred Payment was paid in December 2008. The Earn-Out included (i) up to $25 million based

on earnings for the 18 month period ended December 31, 2007 and (ii) up to $50 million based on earnings in 2008. Neither Earn-Out provisions were met and as a result, the Company will not pay any additional purchase consideration.
4. Discontinued Operations
The remaining assets and liabilities of the Company's discontinued operations segments at December 31, 2007 and 2008 included, among other things, (i) cash and cash equivalents of $0.5 million; (ii) restricted cash of $0.6 million; (iii) investment in provider joint ventures of $0.6 million; and (iv) accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $0.7 million.
5. Benefit Plans
The Company has a defined contribution retirement plan (the "401(k) Plan"). Employee participants can elect to contribute up to 75 percent of their compensation, subject to Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") deferral limitations, to the 401(k) Plan. The Company makes contributions to the 401(k) Plan based on employee compensation and contributions. The Company matches 50 percent of each employee's contribution up to 6 percent of their annual compensation. Additionally, the Company can elect to make a discretionary contribution of up to 2 percent of each eligible employee's compensation. The Company recognized $3.7 million, $4.2 million and $5.1 million of expense for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively, for matching contributions to the 401(k) Plan.
6. Long-Term Debt and Capital Lease Obligations
New Credit Facility
The Company's credit agreement with Deutsche Bank AG dated January 5, 2004, as amended (the "Credit Agreement") provided for a Term Loan Facility, a Revolving Loan Facility providing for loans of up to $50.0 million and a Credit-Linked Facility for the issuance of letters of credit for the account of the Company in an aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million. As of December 31, 2007, the Company had $12.5 million outstanding under the Term Loan Facility. As of December 31, 2007, the Company had issued letters of credit in the amount of $47.8 million, resulting in unutilized commitments under the Credit-Linked Facility of $2.2 million. The Credit Agreement was guaranteed by substantially all of the subsidiaries of the Company and was secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and the subsidiary guarantors. On April 30, 2008, the Company's Credit Agreement was terminated.
On April 30, 2008, the Company entered into a credit facility with Deutsche Bank AG and Citibank N.A. that provides for a $100.0 million Revolving Loan Commitment for the issuance of letters of credit for the account of the Company with a sublimit of up to $30.0 million for revolving loans (the "New Credit Facility"). Borrowings under the New Credit Facility will mature on April 29, 2009. As of December 31, 2008, the Company had issued letters of credit in the amount of $47.7 million. The New Credit Facility is guaranteed by substantially all of the subsidiaries of the Company and is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and the subsidiary guarantors.

6. Long-Term Debt and Capital Lease Obligations (Continued)
Under the New Credit Facility, the annual interest rate on Revolving Loan borrowings bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of (i) a borrowing margin of 1.00 percent plus (ii) (A) in the case of U.S. dollar denominated loans, the higher of the prime rate or one-half of one percent in excess of the overnight "federal funds" rate, or (B) in the case of Eurodollar denominated loans, an interest rate which is a function of the Eurodollar rate for the selected interest period. The Company has the option to borrow in U.S. dollar denominated loans or Eurodollar denominated loans at its discretion. Letters of Credit issued under the Revolving Loan Commitment bear interest at the rate of 1.125 percent. The commitment commission on the New Credit Facility is 0.375 percent of the unused Revolving Loan Commitment.

Stock Option Awards
On January 5, 2004, the Company established the 2003 Management Incentive Plan ("2003 MIP") which allowed for the issuance of up to 6,373,689 shares of common stock pursuant to stock options or stock grants. Other than the 2004 Options (defined below) and certain options granted under the 2006 MIP (defined below), options granted by the Company have exercise prices equal to the fair market value on the date of grant.
On February 24, 2006, the board of directors of the Company approved three equity plans and recommended they be submitted for approval by the Company's shareholders at the 2006 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The board approved the 2006 Management Incentive Plan ("2006 MIP"), the 2006 Director Equity Compensation Plan ("Director Plan") and the 2006 Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP"). All three of these plans were approved by the Company's shareholders at the 2006 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on May 16, 2006.
The 2006 MIP, which is similar to the Company's 2003 MIP, authorized the issuance of equity awards covering a total of 2,750,000 shares of the Company's common stock, no more than 300,000 shares of which may be restricted stock or restricted stock units. A restricted stock unit is a notional account representing the right to receive a share of Ordinary Common Stock (or, at the Company's option, cash in lieu thereof) at some future date. The Director Plan covered 120,000 shares of the Company's common stock, no more than 15,000 of which may be restricted stock or restricted stock units, and provided for the issuance of options and restricted stock or restricted stock units to directors immediately following each annual meeting of shareholders in 2006 and 2007. The ESPP is a noncompensatory plan and covers 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock and permits employees of the Company to purchase Common Stock at a 5 percent discount.
On February 27, 2008 the board of directors of the Company approved the 2008 Management Incentive Plan ("2008 MIP") and recommended it be submitted for approval by the Company's shareholders at the 2008 Annual Meeting of shareholders. The 2008 MIP is similar to the 2006 MIP and the 2003 MIP. The board of directors also authorized a total of up to 4.5 million shares of the Company's Common Stock (which amount will be increased by the amount of any future forfeitures under the 2006 MIP, the 2003 MIP and the Director Plan) to be available for issuance pursuant to the 2008 MIP. Each restricted stock unit or share of restricted stock issued under the 2008 MIP shall be counted as 1.9 option shares for the purpose of calculating shares awarded and shares remaining available for grant pursuant to the 2008 MIP. The 2008 MIP also provides that no further awards are to be made under the 2006 MIP, the 2003 MIP or the Director Plan, and any equity awards remaining available for issuance under such plans are no longer available for issuance except for any forfeitures or other recapture of equity awards previously made under such plans, which will be available for grant under the 2008 MIP. The 2008 MIP, unlike the 2006 MIP and the 2003 MIP, also permits the grant of performance based cash bonus awards to eligible employees and the grant of equity to directors of the Company. Currently, no such cash bonus awards have been issued under the 2008 MIP.
On February 27, 2008, the compensation committee of the board of the Company authorized the grant of stock options and restricted stock units to members of management pursuant to the 2008 MIP with such options and restricted stock units to be issued on March 5, 2008 pursuant to the Company's equity award policy. The options granted to management have a ten year term and an exercise price

equal to the closing price of a share of Common Stock of the Company on NASDAQ on March 5, 2008, the date of grant of annual equity awards under the Company's equity award policy. The options and restricted stock units granted to management vest ratably on each anniversary date over the three years subsequent to grant, except that the vesting of certain of the restricted stock units are subject to satisfaction of certain performance targets.
The compensation committee also granted to each independent member of the board on May 20, 2008 (the date of the 2008 Annual Meeting of Shareholders), that number of shares of restricted stock of the Company determined by dividing $125,000 by the closing price of a share of the Company's Common Stock on NASDAQ on May 20, 2008. In addition, the compensation committee granted to the chairman of the board on May 20, 2008, that number of shares of restricted stock of the Company determined by dividing $500,000 by the closing price of a share of the Company's Common Stock on NASDAQ on May 20, 2008. Such shares of restricted stock granted to directors will vest on May 20, 2009.
The options and restricted stock units awarded to members of management and the directors as described above were subject to and conditioned upon shareholder approval of the 2008 MIP which occurred at the 2008 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company. As such, these awards were not effectively granted nor was any stock compensation expense recorded until May 20, 2008.
The weighted average grant date fair value of substantially all stock options granted during the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008 was $14.27, $12.24 and $8.52, respectively, as estimated using the Black- Scholes-Merton option pricing model based on the following weighted average assumptions:

For the year ended December 31, 2006, management determined that volatility based on actively traded equities of companies that are similar to the Company was a better indicator of expected volatility and future stock price trends than historical Company volatility. For the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, such volatility was based on the historical volatility of the Company's stock price. SFAS 123R also requires the benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized stock compensation expense to be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow. In the year ended December 31, 2006, the tax deductions related to stock compensation expense were not realized because of the availability of Net Operating Loss Carryforwards ("NOLs"), and thus there were no such financing cash flows reported. In the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, approximately $14.4 million and $7.5 million, respectively, of benefits of such tax deductions related to stock compensation expense were realized and as such were reported as financing cash flows. Of these amounts, $0.6 million and $5.4 million, respectively, have been reflected as increases to additional paid in capital for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively. Tax contingencies were recorded for the remaining $13.8 million and $2.1 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2007 and 2008.

Option Modification
On January 3, 2006, the Company amended certain stock options outstanding under the 2003 MIP. The amendments, as further described below, were intended primarily to bring the features of such options into compliance with certain requirements established by Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), which was added to the Code by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and governs as a general matter the federal income tax treatment of deferred compensation. The amended options were originally issued on January 5, 2004 (the "2004 Options"). Because the exercise price of such 2004 Options may be considered to have been less than the fair market value of the shares that may be acquired upon exercise of such options as determined by the market trading in such shares, such options might be subject to the provisions of Section 409A, including certain penalty tax provisions on the option holders.
The amendments in each case reduced the period in which the 2004 Options, once vested, could be exercised from the tenth anniversary of the date of grant to the end of the calendar year in which each option first becomes exercisable. The vesting schedule of the options was not changed and no change was made in the exercise price or other material terms.

In addition, the 2004 Options issued to the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer (the "Senior Executives") were also amended to defer until January 5, 2007 the exercisability of all but 137,398 of their options that vested in January 2006. This deferral was agreed upon in connection with the waiver by the Company of the restriction on sale before January 5, 2007 of 413,003 shares held by the Senior Executives, that they had previously acquired upon exercise of a portion of their 2004 Options that vested in January 2005.
In connection with these amendments, the Company agreed to grant new options to option holders, other than the Senior Executives, upon exercise of their 2004 Options. The new options will be in an amount equal to the number of options exercised, will have exercise prices equal to the market price on the date of grant and will vest ratably on each anniversary date over the three years subsequent to grant. In the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, options to purchase 249,455, 233,892 and 345,956 shares, respectively, were granted pursuant to these amendments upon exercise of 2004 Options during these periods.
Restricted Stock Awards
During the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company granted shares of restricted stock which vest ratably on each anniversary date over the four years subsequent to grant. During the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, the Company granted shares of restricted stock which generally vest ratably on each anniversary date over the three years subsequent to grant.

The $24 million in restricted stock paid at the closing was issued in a transaction pursuant to which the unitholders of ICORE at closing applied $24 million of the purchase price as cash consideration for their purchase of restricted shares of the Company's common stock. The unitholders subscribed to an aggregate of 543,879 restricted shares of the Company's common stock on a basis proportional to each unitholder's economic interest in ICORE at a purchase price of $44.13 per share, which was the average of the closing prices of the Company's common stock on NASDAQ for the twenty trading days immediately preceding the closing.

Stock Repurchase
On July 30, 2008 the Company's board of directors approved a stock repurchase plan which authorizes the Company to purchase up to $200 million of its outstanding common stock through January 31, 2010. Stock repurchases under the program may be executed through open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchases or other means. The board of directors authorized management to execute stock repurchase transactions from time to time and in such amounts and via such methods as management deems appropriate. The stock repurchase program may be limited or terminated at any time without prior notice. The Company expects to fund the stock repurchases using cash on hand. From August 1, 2008 through December 31, 2008, the Company repurchased 3,866,505 shares through the stock repurchase plan at an average share price of $35.18 per share for an aggregate cost of $136.0 million (excluding broker commissions).

The Company estimates that it has reportable federal NOLs as of December 31, 2008 of approximately $114.8 million available to reduce future federal taxable income. These estimated NOLs expire in 2011 through 2020 and are subject to examination and adjustment by the IRS. In addition, the Company's utilization of such NOLs is subject to limitation under Internal Revenue Code Section 382, which affects the timing of the use of these NOLs. At this time, the Company does not believe these limitations will limit the Company's ability to use any federal NOLs before they expire. Although the Company has NOLs that may be available to offset future taxable income, the Company may be subject to Federal Alternative Minimum Tax.
The Company's valuation allowances against deferred tax assets were $10.2 million and $9.4 million as of December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively, mostly relating to uncertainties regarding the eventual realization of certain state NOLs and other state deferred tax assets. Determination of the amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable required significant judgment and estimation. Changes in these estimates in the future could materially affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

The Company periodically performs a comprehensive review of its tax positions and accrues amounts for tax contingencies. Based upon these reviews, the status of ongoing tax audits, and the expiration of applicable statutes of limitations, accruals are adjusted as necessary. The resolution of tax audits is unpredictable and could result in tax liabilities that are significantly different than those which have been estimated and accrued by the Company. Such amounts are included in deferred credits and other long-term liabilities within the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

remainder reducing deferred tax assets. If these unrecognized tax benefits had been realized as of December 31, 2007 and 2008, $22.7 million and $22.8 million, respectively, would have impacted the effective tax rate.
Included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits recorded at December 31, 2007 and 2008 were liabilities of $5.5 million and $14.1 million, respectively, for tax positions for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. Because of the impact of deferred tax accounting, other than interest and penalties, the deferral of these deductions to later years would not affect the annual effective tax rate but could result in the acceleration of cash payments and/or reduction to the NOL carryforwards with respect to the earlier period.
With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state or local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years ended prior to December 31, 2005. The statute of limitations regarding the assessment of the federal and most state and local income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2005 will expire during 2009. The Company anticipates that up to $5.4 million of unrecognized tax benefits (excluding interest costs) recorded as of December 31, 2008 could be reversed during 2009 as a result of statute expirations. All such reversals (net of the related indirect tax benefits) would be reflected as discrete adjustments during the quarter in which the respective statute expiration occurs.
Prior to 2009 and in accordance with SOP 90-7, reversals of both valuation allowances and unrecognized tax benefits with respect to years prior to the Company's reorganization were recorded to goodwill. All other reversals of these balances were recorded as reductions to income tax expense. As a result of the implementation of SFAS 141(R), beginning in 2009 all reversals of valuation allowances and unrecognized tax benefits will be reflected as reductions to income tax expense, even if related to years prior to the Company's reorganization.
As of December 31, 2007 and 2008, the Company had accrued approximately $2.7 million and $4.2 million, respectively, for the potential payment of interest and penalties (net of indirect benefits). The Company accrues interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in its provision for income taxes. During the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, the Company recognized approximately $0.6 million, $1.2 million and $1.6 million in interest and penalties, excluding $0.7 million recorded in 2007 as a reduction in retained earnings as a result of implementation of FIN 48.

10. Commitments and Contingencies
Insurance
The Company maintains a program of insurance coverage for a broad range of risks in its business. The Company has renewed its general, professional and managed care liability insurance policies with unaffiliated insurers for a one-year period from June 17, 2008 to June 17, 2009. The general liability policies are written on an "occurrence" basis, subject to a $0.05 million per claim un-aggregated self-insured retention. The professional liability and managed care errors and omissions liability policies are written on a "claims-made" basis, subject to a $1.0 million per claim ($10.0 million per class action claim) un-aggregated self-insured retention for managed care liability, and a $0.05 million per claim un-aggregated self-insured retention for professional liability.
The Company maintains separate general and professional liability insurance policies with an unaffiliated insurer for its Specialty Pharmaceutical Management business. The Specialty Pharmaceutical Management insurance policies have a one-year term for the period June 17, 2008 to June 17, 2009. The general liability policies are written on an "occurrence" basis, subject to a $0.05 million per claim un-aggregated self-insured retention. The professional liability policy is written on a "claims-made" basis, subject to a $0.05 million per claim un-aggregated self-insured retention.
The Company maintains separate general and professional liability insurance policies with an unaffiliated insurer for its Maricopa Contract business, which include coverage for the behavioral health direct care facilities. The Maricopa Contract insurance policies have a one-year term for the period September 1, 2008 to September 1, 2009. The general liability policies are written on an "occurrence" basis, subject to a $0.35 million per claim un-aggregated self-insured retention. The professional liability policy is written on a "claims-made" basis, subject to a $0.35 million per claim un-aggregated self-insured retention.
The Company is responsible for claims within its self-insured retentions, and for portions of claims reported after the expiration date of the policies if they are not renewed, or if policy limits are exceeded. The Company also purchases excess liability coverage in an amount that management believes to be reasonable for the size and profile of the organization.
Regulatory Issues
The specialty managed healthcare industry is subject to numerous laws and regulations. The subjects of such laws and regulations cover, but are not limited to, matters such as licensure, accreditation, government healthcare program participation requirements, information privacy and security, reimbursement for patient services, and Medicare and Medicaid fraud and abuse. Over the past several years, government activity has increased with respect to investigations and/or allegations concerning possible violations of fraud and abuse and false claims statutes and/or regulations by healthcare organizations and insurers. Entities that are found to have violated these laws and regulations may be excluded from participating in government healthcare programs, subjected to fines or penalties or required to repay amounts received from the government for previously billed patient services. Compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future government review and interpretation, as well as regulatory actions unknown or unasserted at this time.

10. Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)
In addition, regulators of certain of the Company's subsidiaries may exercise certain discretionary rights under regulations including increasing its supervision of such entities, requiring additional restricted cash or other security or seizing or otherwise taking control of the assets and operations of such subsidiaries.
Legal
The management and administration of the delivery of specialty managed healthcare entails significant risks of liability. From time to time, the Company is subject to various actions and claims arising from the acts or omissions of its employees, network providers or other parties. In the normal course of business, the Company receives reports relating to deaths and other serious incidents involving patients whose care is being managed by the Company. Such incidents occasionally give rise to malpractice, professional negligence and other related actions and claims against the Company or its network providers. Many of these actions and claims received by the Company seek substantial damages and therefore require the Company to incur significant fees and costs related to their defense. The Company is also subject to or party to certain class actions, litigation and claims relating to its operations and business practices. In the opinion of management, the Company has recorded reserves that are adequate to cover litigation, claims or assessments that have been or may be asserted against the Company, and for which the outcome is probable and reasonably estimable. Management believes that the resolution of such litigation and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations; however, there can be no assurance in this regard.
Operating Leases
The Company leases certain of its operating facilities and equipment. The leases, which expire at various dates through August 2015, generally require the Company to pay all maintenance, property tax and insurance costs.
At December 31, 2008, aggregate amounts of future minimum payments under operating leases were as follows: 2009$19.7 million; 2010$15.4 million; 2011$9.5 million; 2012$6.1 million; 2013$1.8 million; 2014 and beyond$0.9 million. Operating lease obligations include estimated future lease payments for both open and closed offices.
At December 31, 2008, aggregate amounts of future minimum rentals to be received under operating subleases were as follows: 2009$2.3 million; and 2010$0.8 million. Operating sublease rentals to be received relate primarily to behavioral health direct care facilities transitioned to PNOs pursuant to the Maricopa Contract.
Rent expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases. Rent expense was $15.7 million, $19.3 million and $24.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively.

12. Business Segment Information
The accounting policies of the Company's segments are the same as those described in Note 1"General." The Company evaluates performance of its segments based on profit or loss from continuing operations before stock compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, interest income, gain on sale of assets, special charges or benefits, income taxes and minority interest ("Segment Profit"). Management uses Segment Profit information for internal reporting and control purposes and considers it important in making decisions regarding the allocation of capital and other resources, risk assessment and employee compensation, among other matters. Intersegment sales and transfers are not significant. The following tables summarize, for the periods indicated, operating results by business segment (in thousands):
