Pharmacy Benefit Evaluator (PBE)
& Managed Market Surveyor (MMS)

The dynamic and rapidly changing U.S. payer landscape makes it crucial for pharma, biotech, and med tech companies to have the most up-to-date and accurate enrollment and pharmacy benefit data. Our trusted and rigorously validated enrolled lives and pharmacy benefit management data delivers a comprehensive dataset curated through a survey conducted twice a year of payers and government agencies by our expert analyst team.

Here are the key highlights from the latest January 2025 data release:

Public health insurance exchange grows:

Enrollment as of January 2025 had grown by at least 2.2 million, or about 11%, over the prior six months and by at least 2.7 million, or about 14%, over the previous year.

Commercial fully insured declines:

Excluding exchange enrollment, health insurers’ commercial membership as of January 2025 had declined over the previous six months due to a drop of more than 2 million in fully insured lives, although self-insured enrollment increased.

Medicare enrollment trend disrupted:

Medicare fee-for-service enrollment grew by 462,000 and outpaced Medicare Advantage growth of 284,000 from July 2024 to January 2025. That contrasts with a yearslong trend of steadily declining FFS enrollment countered by strong MA enrollment growth.

Medicaid contraction slows:

The trend of declining enrollment continued but slowed significantly from its previously precipitous pace. As of January 2025, Medicaid enrollment decreased by about 537,000, or less than 1%, over the prior six months.
