Business highlights
Increase of 1.1 million members sequentially reflects broad based growth in our Medicare, Individual Exchange and Commercial products.
Medical costs were ~$900 million above expectations, primarily in Medicare Advantage, driven by ~$500 million of seasonal factors or items specific to the quarter. The remaining ~$400 million of pressure was driven by utilization trends we assume will persist for the remainder of 2024.
Lowered 2024 adjusted operating income guidance to at least $3.6 billion and increased 2024 medical benefit ratio guidance to ~89.8%.

Business highlights
Health Services revenue of ~$40 billion was impacted by the previously announced loss of a large client and continued pharmacy client price improvements, partially offset by
pharmacy drug mix, growth in specialty pharmacy and the acquisitions of Oak Street Health and
Signify Health.
Oak Street Health ended the quarter with 205 centers, an increase of 33 centers year-over-year.
Lowered 2024 adjusted operating income guidance to at least $7.0 billion, reflecting impact of higher Medicare utilization in Health Care Delivery and mix trends in Pharmacy Services.
