    Seven of the major national Medicaid insurers saw membership losses, with Centene Corp. losing more than 602,000 HMO members. Its membership declined by more than 100,000 in three states: Florida, Iowa and Texas. At the 2023 Wells Fargo Healthcare Conference on Sept. 6, Centene’s executives said that they expected the number of disenrolled former members to be in the range of 2.3 million to 2.4 million.
