Management will host a conference call today at 5:00 p.m. ET to discuss its operating results and other business highlights . " Clover took another step in its journey to improve every life with the launch of Direct Contracting this past quarter . This milestone more than doubled our revenue and nearly doubled lives under Clover Assistant management , " said Clover Health CEO Vivek Garipalli . " We have ambitious goals to maintain an aggressive growth trajectory while pursuing our mission to improve every life by making great healthcare available and affordable to all American seniors regardless of health , wealth , or economic status . We're proud of what we've already achieved , and look forward to continued progress in the second half of the year . " Andrew Toy , President and CTO of Clover Health added , " The Clover Assistant continues to be a key differentiator which underpins our unique model . The Clover Assistant has approximately 95,000 lives under management and is on pace to manage over $ 1 billion of annualized revenue . Most importantly , we believe the Clover Assistant drives better outcomes for our members . Additionally , our Non - GAAP Normalized MA MCR for returning MA members attributed to a provider live on Clover Assistant was 720 bps lower than members attributed to non - CA providers . Our top six markets by membership , in which over 74 % of our MA members received a CA visit in 2020 , had a Normalized MA MCR ( Non - GAAP ) of 86.6 % in first quarter 2021. We continue to deeply invest in the Clover Assistant platform , and our product and technology teams are constantly working to launch exciting new features such as deeper EHR integrations as well as supporting specialized services like diabetes management . " Management Commentary on Financial Highlights " Second quarter revenue grew 140 % year - over - year due primarily to the launch of Direct Contracting . Clover is on a $ 1.6 billion annual revenue run rate based on the second quarter results , " said Joe Wagner , Clover Health CFO . " We believe our Normalized MA MCR ( non - GAAP ) , which adjusts for COVID - related impacts , demonstrates stability in this measure year over - year , and we continue to see positive results from returning members and those who see Clover Assistant providers . On a GAAP basis , similar to other MA plans , we saw an elevated MA MCR from increased utilization , much of which we believe was deferred in prior periods due to COVID in our New Jersey / New York markets . In contrast , in the second quarter of 2020 , Clover reported a GAAP MCR of 70.1 % due to a significant decrease in utilization . Neither our results in this quarter nor in the second quarter of 2020 represent the underlying fundamentals of our business . Over time we expect these extraordinary costs to trend down , consistent with our Normalized ( non - GAAP ) calculations . " 1
