HealthSun’s Medicare Advantage Plans Achieve Five-Star Rating, for Fifth Consecutive Year

CMS recognizes HealthSun for delivering high-quality services and member experiences

MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--HealthSun Health Plans today announced that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) awarded its Medicare Advantage plans a 5-Star rating for the fifth year in a row, an achievement that no other Medicare Advantage health plan in Florida has accomplished. A 5-Star rating is the highest result a Medicare Advantage plan can obtain from CMS under its Star Ratings system.

“Our team’s commitment to our members is unmatched; they ensure our members receive high-quality healthcare experiences through access to proactive and preventive services that meet everyone’s unique healthcare needs,” said Doug Johnson, President of HealthSun Health Plans. “In addition to the hundreds of HealthSun employees, this accomplishment is made possible through the collaborative relationship we have with the providers in our network. I am honored to work with such dedicated individuals.”

HealthSun delivers its services through an integrated approach to healthcare, in collaboration with provider partners such as Pasteur Medical and Wellmax Medical Centers. The health plan also understands that the best health outcomes occur when the many factors of whole person health are addressed, including better access to healthcare services, addressing food insecurity, and tackling social isolation.

In addition to delivering traditional health insurance coverage, HealthSun provides benefits for dental and hearing services, vision care, OTC items, transportation for your medical visits, gym membership, meal programs and other nutrition care programs, and many other services that help people improve their health and wellbeing.

CMS’ Medicare Star Ratings rate health plans on a scale of 1-5 Stars (5 Stars = Excellent). To help consumers and individuals who help them with their healthcare decisions compare plans, CMS Star Ratings provide people with a scorecard indicating how well health plans perform on quality and performance measures. Medicare Advantage plans are rated on their ability to:

• Help members stay healthy
• Assist members in managing chronic conditions
• Ensure positive member experiences with their health plan
• Achieve member satisfaction
• Provide effective customer service

Additionally, Medicare Advantage and Medicare Prescription Drug Plans that provide drug services are rated on how well they provide prescription-related coverage along a number of factors: customer service, member complaints, member experience with drug plan, and drug safety.

Consumers can enroll in HealthSun’s 2022 Medicare Advantage plans during Medicare’s Annual Election Period (AEP), which begins October 15, 2021 and continues through December 7, 2021. Plans purchased during AEP are effective January 1, 2022. For details about HealthSun’s Medicare plans in your area, call 877-336-2069 or visit HealthSun online at www.healthsun.com.

Star Ratings are calculated each year using a scale of one to five stars, and may change from year to year. The annual Medicare Star Ratings are posted online at www.medicare.gov.
