2024 UHC Medicare Advantage Service Area Changes

Medicare Advantage will send non-renewal notices to those patients dated Oct. 2, 2023, to let them know of these changes and their options. These options include other available Medicare Advantage plans, Medicare Supplement insurance coverage and/or Medicare Part D coverage, as applicable. Additionally, these changes should not affect your Participation Agreement if you are a participating healthcare professional with UnitedHealthcare Medicare Advantage plans.

2024 Changes: Only a small percentage of UHC’s overall Medicare Advantage membership will need to change their plan.  The affected plans include certain AARP® Medicare Advantage, UnitedHealthcare MedicareDirect, UnitedHealthcare Dual Complete® or other UnitedHealthcare Medicare Advantage plans in multiple states.  Service area changes will vary by plan, state and county.

If an affected member doesn’t enroll in a new UnitedHealthcare Medicare Advantage plan by Dec. 31, 2023, their coverage with UnitedHealthcare will end on Jan. 1, 2024.  Depending on what action the member takes, they may be enrolled in a different organization’s Medicare Advantage plan or be returned to Original Medicare on Jan. 1, 2024.
