The Company is fully reimbursed by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) for costs incurred for these contract elements and, accordingly, there is no insurance risk to the Company. Amounts received for these subsidies are not reflected as premium revenues, but rather are accounted for as deposits in other policy liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2009, the amounts received for these subsidies were insufficient to cover the costs incurred for these contract elements; therefore, the Company recorded a receivable in other current receivables in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Premiums from CMS are subject to risk-sharing provisions based on a comparison of the Company's annual bid estimates of prescription drug costs and the actual costs incurred. Variances may result in CMS making additional payments to the Company or require the Company to remit funds to CMS subsequent to the end of the year. The Company records risk-share adjustments to premium revenue and other policy liabilities or other current receivables in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. </div> 4.    Medicare Part D Pharmacy Benefits Contract The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets include the following amounts associated with false false false us-types:textBlockItemType textblock Describes Medicare Part D prescription drug insurance coverage offered under the contracts with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
