Access to Care
Thank you for trusting Medical Center Health System with your care. We want to provide you with an update on our work to preserve your access to the Medical Center Health System Medical staff and services you know and trust.
Medical Center Health System is streamlining the Medicare Advantage plans we accept. We want what is best for our patients, and we have been disappointed in how many Medicare Advantage plans continue to complicate, postpone and deny coverage to their members.
Effective January 1, 2025, Medical Center Health System will be out of network with Humana Medicare Advantage plans.
It is important to know that Medical Center Health System remains in network with your Humana Medicare Advantage plan for the remainder of 2024. You should keep all appointments and continue scheduling new appointments for the high-quality care you need.
In advance of the upcoming open enrollment period, we want to make sure you understand your options. For plan year 2025, Medical Center Health System will accept the following Medicare plans:
- Original (Traditional) Medicare and all Medicare supplements (always accepted by MCH)
- UnitedHealthcare Medicare Advantage
- BlueCross BlueShield Medicare Advantage
- Aetna Medicare Advantage
*Emergency care is always provided at in-network rates, regardless of your plan
If you would like to continue to receive in-network care from your trusted MCH providers in 2025, you will need to select Original Medicare or change your Medicare Advantage plan to one of those listed above.

Make the Best Decision for Your Healthcare.

The biggest decision when signing up for Medicare, or when making your annual Medicare selection, is whether to choose Original Medicare (sometimes called Traditional Medicare), or to choose a Medicare Advantage plan (Part C).
