How many people chose it
2,026 people were enrolled across 16 counties in September 2026. CMS suppresses any county count of ten or fewer, so the real total is a little higher than this.
How CMS rates it, domain by domain
Each domain is rated 1 to 5. 2 of 9 domains carry no rating — CMS either did not require this contract to report them or had too little data.

Premiums, deductibles, maximum out-of-pocket amounts, star ratings and sanctions are reproduced from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services landscape file. Enrolment counts are from the CMS monthly enrolment file; CMS suppresses any count of ten or fewer, which is why many plans show “fewer than 11” rather than a number. Plan renewals and terminations are from the 2026 plan crosswalk. Nothing on this page is calculated by us. This is not a complete list of your options and it is not advice: see Medicare.gov or call 1-800-MEDICARE.
