Nearly 71% of Medicare Advantage members are enrolled in plans rated four stars or higher for 2027, according to CMS. However, only 37% of contracts achieved that standard. The results reveal differences in plan quality and could have significant financial implications for insurers as they prepare for changes to federal quality bonus payments in 2028.
CVS Health nearly tripled quarterly net income as Aetna’s insurance margins improved. The numbers show how pricing, medical costs and selective market participation are reshaping the company’s Medicare Advantage business.
