and we have another california-centric question here. how about you've got a market in california that is heavily penetrated by hmos, and the questioner wonders how the reference-based prices for anthem's ppo compare to the prices in california hmos. the prices that they pay. >> well, the hmo in california in general is significant, although it's actually decreasing gradually over the past few years, and the ppo is increasing overall. but there's still a very large number of hmo members. in most cases as far as anthem goes, the hospital pricing is a contract between anthem and the hospital. so the professional component is where the capitation occurs on the hmo side with the exception of about 15% of our network which is in a full risk or more of a global capitation setting. so the answer, in short, is that the hmo is not currently part of this initiative. and the prices paid at those institutions are the prices that the standard anthem price. >> and, actually, this is a related question, at least poor country lawyer thinks it's related.
