Employer FLASH: Employer Group Flash: Medicare Advantage Update

Important Information:

The purpose of this correspondence is to notify you that your group’s current Medicare Advantage group plan will not be renewed. Beginning January 1, 2026, Health Alliance™ Medical Plans will no longer offer Medicare Advantage coverage in your area. This means your group must enroll in a new Medicare Advantage plan from another insurance company in order to maintain coverage beginning January 1, 2026. Please read this letter carefully and review your options.

This information does not impact your current coverage. As long as premiums continue to be paid to Health Alliance, coverage will continue through December 31, 2025.

To keep group health coverage, your group must choose a new plan from another Medicare Advantage company for 2026.

To have continued Medicare Advantage coverage for your group, you should have a new Medicare Advantage plan in place with coverage starting by January 1, 2026. Your group can choose to buy a new plan with the help of an agent or broker or directly from another insurance company.

We are notifying all group enrollees.

Health Alliance is required to notify all group enrollees who have this coverage that Health Alliance will no longer offer the enrollee’s plan after December 31, 2025. Because Health Alliance might not know about other coverage decisions the group has made, enrollees should check with the plan sponsor or administrator about coverage options that might be available through your organization.
