Mercer, MMA and MMB help public and private sector employers design and manage employee health and welfare programs. Their services include plan design, brokering of insurance programs, administration and other consulting and specialty services. The healthcare industry, inclusive of health insurance, is regulated by federal, state and local governments in the U.S., and by regulators and governments in other countries where we do business. The laws and rules governing the healthcare industry and interpretations of those laws and rules are subject to frequent and often unpredictable change. For example, legislation or regulatory action that has the impact of disincentivizing U.S. companies from offering employer-sponsored health insurance could ultimately reduce the revenue we receive when consulting on and broking these policies on behalf of our corporate clients. Legislation seeking to regulate pharmacy benefit management services introduced or enacted at the federal or state level could impact the compensation structure and how much we are paid where we advise clients on prescription drug coverage. Changes to U.S. government health programs, like Medicaid, could also impact our consulting and ancillary services for government clients that manage these programs. Moreover, the health care industry is regularly subject to negative publicity, including as a result of governmental investigations, adverse media coverage and political debate concerning industry regulation. Negative publicity may adversely affect our business and damage our reputation, and expose us to unexpected or unwarranted regulatory scrutiny, including as a result of the revenue our businesses receive from healthcare-related services including our consulting advice to clients from different areas of the healthcare industry.
