Is there an upper limit to the number of lives that can participate in any one evaluation project to lock-in the demonstration pricing over the three year trial?
The grant requires a minimum of 5,000 covered lives in order to achieve a statistically significant result. We now realize that the economic downturn and the demand for incentive driven healthcare cost containment programs is generating greater interest among employers wanting to participate in the evaluation to take advantage of the demonstration project prices. The MedEncentive program is very easy to implement and maintain and we are prepared to support large populations. Therefore, there is no reasonable upper limit on the number of covered lives that may be enrolled in any one evaluation project, provided the participating employers/insurers are capable of supporting and promoting the program as recommended, and the coalition awardee is capable of analyzing the results appropriately.
