UBS analyst Kevin Caliendo lowered the firm’s price target on Humana to $620 from $645 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Humana’s 2023 outlook appears conservative, with management baking in numerous headwinds related to investments in MA offerings, Medicaid growth/redeterminations, and a return to normal utilization levels, and the firm feels there is still some uncertainty around what the long-term impact of RADV will be on Humana, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Additionally, the advanced rate notice from CMS also raises some new questions around coding, but UBS does not think it will have a material impact on the benefit offerings and value proposition of Humana.
