HAP’s 2020 Medicare HMO and PPO Plans Rated 4 out of 5 Stars

October 10, 2019 by Dr Charles Bloom

When it comes to navigating Medicare options during open enrollment, expert information can help you make the right decision. Every fall, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) releases Medicare Star Ratings, which can be valuable when comparing plans. Medicare Star Ratings help you understand a health plan’s performance on a scale of five stars, with five being the best.

I’m proud to announce that HAP’s 2020 Medicare HMO and PPO plans have earned a respectable 4 out of 5-star rating by CMS. At HAP, our doctors, nurses, case managers and health plan experts continually strive to find new and better ways to coordinate care.

These programs are just part of the reason for our rating with CMS. Additionally, we earned a 5 out of 5-star customer service rating. We are proud of our 4-star overall rating, but we continue to look for new ways to enhance our members’ benefits and to keep our members healthy and happy.
