Preferred Care Partners
 

Is Prefered Care Partners only a Medicare plan? Or do they also have plans for under 65?

Preferred Care Partners is a Medicare Advantage plan HMO available for individuals age 65 and over, who have Medicare Part A and B.

My understanding is that Preferred Care Partners has been sold..I also heard that next year the same plan will not be offered..Looks like United bought them out and will be raising rates and diminishing coverage...Just hearsay at this point but there are insurance symposiums scheduled throughout the villages in early Oct...I'm going, just to find out what is happening..Looks like a big company may have bought out the competetion and will be putting it to the customers for the almighty buck..Anyone else know of something different?.

To be clear Medicare Advantage Plans are available for anyone on Medicare, not just those 65 and over. For example if you receive SS Disability and qualify for Medicare you can take advantage of Medicare Advantage Plans no matter your age

I suspect that anybody on Preferred Care Partners is pretty much screwed. United Health Care is teamed up with AARP to sell medicare plans to seniors. You can bet that AARP will not let United undercut prices available to their own members. I cancelled my AARP membership years ago because I didn't like having to pay dues to an organization that supported political causes I did not agree with. I am not about to rejoin them now.

Not fair to start rumors here! Yes PCP was bought out but as a PCP patient who was in the PCP office recently I can tell you even the employees there can't tell anyone what is coming with the new enrollment. We ALL will find out next week.....so noone is *sc$#%ed* yet.

I am anxious to know what they will offer us for next year. Hubby and I are both PCP members. We recently received in the mail an application from UHC for insurance and none of the plans really suit us. We need decent and reasonable coverage for overseas trips.

No rumors,PCP members are screwed,letters are in the mail.My girlfriend just got hers,as of December 31st you are on your own,PCP Medicare plan will no longer be offered ,you will have to find another Medicare health plan to join.

Don't worry! I just talked to my insurance guy, who has PCP. He went to a meeting in Ocala yesterday with PCP and United Healthcare and got information. I am new to PCP. Apparently it changes every year. He told me about the plan which puts $99.50 back into SS instead of $75. A little higher hospital co-pay, but sounds pretty good. He will be meeting with me soon to discuss the plans offered.

Has anyone heard from any of the other Medicare Advantage Plans as to,what their plans are for 2013?

I just got a big package from Optimum, and their plan is basically the same for 2013 as it has been.

Thanks. That's good to know.

correctionI have been thinking about changing from PCP (a Medicare Advantage Plan) to Medicare with a Medigap Plan.....and so made an appointment at LSL with the Insurance Office there. Did this last week before receiving the news from PCP........I would suggest anyone with concerns to do the same

That is what we had, but it was $300+. Momth for two of us, plus our medication plan which was about $50/ month per person plus co pays. We've been saving over $400 a month with preferred Care Partners.
