Unpaid Claims and Claim Expenses – Cigna HealthcareThis liability reflects estimates of the ultimate cost of claims that have been incurred but not reported, including expected development on reported claims, those that have been reported but not yet paid (reported claims in process) and other medical care expenses and services payable that are primarily comprised of accruals for incentives and other amounts payable to health care professionals and facilities. This liability includes amounts from the International Health businesses now reported in Cigna Healthcare following our change in segment reporting in 2021. The prior year roll forward has been updated to reflect this segment change. The total of incurred but not reported liabilities plus expected development on reported claims, including reported claims in process, was $4.1 billion at June 30, 2022 and $3.9 billion at June 30, 2021.
Activity, net of intercompany transactions, in the unpaid claims liability for the Cigna Healthcare segment for the six months ended June 30 was as follows:
