MEDI ASSIST Industry Overview

Industry Statistics

Definition

TPA is an organization that processes insurance claims on behalf of the insurance companies. It enters into contract with the insurance companies and plays an important role in the health insurance sector, by ensuring better services to policyholders.
TPA industry came into existence when Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI) issued the (Third Party Administrators – Health Services) Regulations, 2001, on September 17, 2001.

Overview

Penetration of health insurance in India grew from 22.2% in 2014 to 36.5% in 2020 and is expected to reach 55.0% by 2024-2025. During the period of 2014-2015 to 2019-2020, penetration of health insurance (total insurance premium as a percentage of GDP) grew from 0.21% to 0.38%. The demand in the market is driven by continued economic growth, expanding healthcare market, positive demographic trends, reforms and initiatives by governments, policies inviting foreign investment, increasing income levels and rising health awareness.
In 2020, health insurance serviced by TPA accounted for Rs. 303.05 billion, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20% from 2018-2020 owing to increase in the group insurance scheme in India. Total health insurance serviced by TPA in 2020 accounts for 61% of the addressable market in India, which provides ample of opportunity of growth for the industry.
Medi Assist Healthcare Services is the dominant leader in its segment. It covers about 22% share of the total TPA industry.

Growth factors

Only 10% of the total population in India is covered by health insurance (excluding public schemes), which results in higher out-of-pocket expenditure for majority of the population. Over the last four to five years, the out-of-pocket healthcare expenditure as a percentage of current healthcare expenditure has shown a decreasing trend and with increasing health insurance penetration, it is expected to reduce further over the next five years.
The Indian healthcare insurance market is experiencing high growth, attributable to many key factors such as the growing economy, as well as rising per capita healthcare expenditure, awareness and need for insurance.
Rising costs of medical care is expected to lead to an increase in demand for health insurance, as well as an opportunity to target higher value policies in terms of the sum assured for health insurance companies.
The COVID-19 pandemic has also brought about a large shift in the insurance preferences of Indian customers, especially individuals.
The pandemic has also presented an opportunity for the insurers to partner with corporates for health and wellness benefits to its employees so as to increase their health quotient and improve the ability to combat any type of illnesses. This will help in reducing the total number of claims raised to the insurers and aid in their profitability.
Given that TPAs interact directly with the end customers, the leading TPAs have developed strong brand identities in the market. drive growth of the TPA industry in India. With central and state governments aiming at rapidly expanding health insurance coverage for economically weaker section of the population in the country, the size of health insurance market and consequently the TPA market is expected to expand rapidly.

Competitive Landscape

Medi Assist is India’s largest health benefits administrator in India for the group segment, in terms of premium serviced for the financial years 2018, 2019 and 2020. Some of the key players in the TPA industry are United Health Care Parekh Insurance TPA Private Limited, Medi Assist Healthcare Services, MDIndia Health Insurance TPA Private Limited, Paramount Health Services & Insurance TPA Private Limited, Heritage Health Insurance TPA Private Limited and many others.

Future Prospects

In India, number of lives covered under health insurance expected to increase the number of lives covered under health insurance at a CAGR of 10.6% over the period 2020-2025, reaching 824 million lives in 2024-2025. Over the next 5 years, retail policies are expected to see the highest growth rate, increasing at a CAGR of approximately 15% from 2020-2021 to 2024-2025. The major factors driving this growth will be the extension of retail distribution network to tier 2 and tier 3 cities along with increased penetration of web aggregators in selling retail health insurance policies.
The premium serviced under health insurance in India stood at ₹ 507.59 billion in 2019-20, growing at a CAGR of 20.8% between 2019-20 and 2024-25, and is expected to reach ₹ 1,303.56 billion in 2024-25. The main driver for growth in health insurance premium has been increased uptake of group and retail policies which is in turn largely dependent on the increased awareness and acceptance of health insurance along with growing insurance launch by various states and central government.
The COVID-19 pandemic has also brought about a large shift in the insurance preferences of Indian customers, which gave rise to a shift from managing curative healthcare expenses to preventive healthcare expenses.
Technology is expected to play an important role in new product creation for future. With increase in sale of connected devices such as wearables, data sharing has become easier and with more and more customers willingly sharing their health data in exchange for personalization, life insurers can provide customized health products to its policyholders.

Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (“PM-JAY”)
Universal Health Insurance Scheme (“UHIS”)
Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana (“RSBY”)
Employment State Insurance Scheme (“ESIS”);

MEDI ASSIST Strengths

The company is India’s largest health benefits administrator in terms of revenues and premium serviced for health insurance policies for the financial years 2018, 2019 and 2020.
The company has developed a pan-India healthcare provider network, which comprises over 11,000 hospitals across 722 cities and towns. During the FY 2020, they settled 37.7 Lakh claims worth Rs. 7,899 Cr.
In FY20, the company serviced over 7,800 corporate accounts, managed INR 6,243 Cr. of corporate premium representing 24% of the overall corporate health insurance market in India and 36% of the corporate health insurance market serviced by health benefits administrators.
The company managed Rs. 7,829 Cr. of health insurance premiums for the FY20 and had market shares of 17% of the private health insurance market and 29% of the private health insurance market serviced by health benefits administrators in India, based on premium under management for the FY20.
The company has long-term relationships with large corporates and insurance companies.
The technology deployed by the company has so far been able to achieve a success rate of 17% in the detection of fraudulent claims during the first nine months of FY21 which resulted in savings of close to ₹86 Cr. for insurers.

MEDI ASSIST Shortcomings

The company is dependent on a limited number of insurance companies for a significant portion of their revenues. For FY20, five largest insurance companies based on premium under management contributed 65% of their revenue from operations.
The company is dependent on corporate accounts in certain industries for a significant portion of their revenues from operations. For FY20, of the total premiums serviced attributable to their 50 largest corporate accounts, corporate accounts in the IT/ITES 62%, and corporate accounts in the BFSI sector contributed 18%.

MEDI ASSIST Opportunities

Rising income levels, greater health awareness, increased occurrence of lifestyle diseases and improved access to insurance are key drivers contributing to the growth of healthcare market in India. Compared to other developing nations, India’s per capita healthcare expenditure (USD 73 in 2018) is on the lower side, which is expected to gain momentum with increasing public and private health expenditure along with rising enrolment in healthcare insurance.
Over the last four to five years, the out-of-pocket healthcare expenditure as a percentage of current healthcare expenditure has shown a decreasing trend and with increasing health insurance penetration, it is expected to reduce further over the next five years.

MEDI ASSIST Threats

Their business depends on their ability to effectively manage and expand their network of healthcare providers. Their inability to ensure significant volume of business for such providers may adversely impact their ability to maintain preferential pricing arrangements.
Their dependence on few clients exposes them to risks associated with their client’s internal management, financial condition and creditworthiness, and major events affecting these clients.
The biggest risk that Medi Assist faces is competition. While the industry is crowded with 23 players, a small number own the bulk of the market. As of FY20, there were only four players which generated a revenue of more than ₹ 100 crores, while the remaining six generated revenues in the range of ₹ 45-88 crore. This opens up the possibility of mergers and/or acquisitions.
