Risk corridor. A risk sharing mechanism in which States and MCOs, PIHPs, or PAHPs may share in profits and losses under the contract outside of a predetermined threshold amount.

Risk corridor somehow means that payments must be made annually. Pl.’s Opp’n at 14. But as Land of Lincoln’s complaint makes clear, a risk corridor merely refers to a designated percentage range represented by an issuer’s ratio of allowable costs to the target amount. See Compl. ¶ 69 (reproducing American Academy of Actuaries illustration of the various allowable cost-to-target corridors). HHS is required to assign one of several risk corridors (i.e., 92-97%, 103-108%, etc.) to every participating plan in each year. See 42 U.S.C. § 18062(b) (setting forth applicable corridors under the ACA); see also 42 U.S.C. § 1395w-115(e)(3) (“For each plan year the Secretary shall establish a risk corridor for each . . . plan.”) (emphasis added). Thus, Land of Lincoln’s contention that there is only “one [risk corridor] for each calendar year” is wrong. Pl.’s Opp’n at 14. Congress’s use of the plural denotes the fact that each issuer is assigned one of several possible risk corridors in each year. It says nothing about when payments will take place.
