Centene reported a net income of $1.09 billion in Q2 2026, reversing a $253 million loss from the previous year, driven by better control of rising medical costs and a lower health benefits ratio of 89.6%. Despite a sharp drop in Obamacare marketplace enrollment from 5.8 million to 3.5 million, premium and service revenues grew 4% to $44.4 billion due to rate increases and risk adjustments.
