How Medicare Advantage Works

Medicare Advantage, sometimes called Part C, lets you receive your Medicare benefits through a Medicare-approved private insurer. These plans cover everything Original Medicare Part A and Part B cover, with the exception of hospice care, which Original Medicare continues to pay for. Most also bundle Part D drug coverage, and many may tack on extras like routine dental, vision and hearing benefits.

The trade-off is that Devoted plans generally rely on networks of doctors and hospitals and may require prior authorization or referrals for some services. Unlike Original Medicare, every Medicare Advantage plan has a yearly out-of-pocket maximum for covered medical care. You continue to pay your Part B premium, along with your plan’s premium if there is one.

Feature HMO PPO
Out-of-network care Not covered except emergencies and urgent care Covered at a higher cost
Referrals for specialists Usually required Usually not required
Premiums Usually lower Usually higher
Out-of-pocket maximum In-network limit In-network limit plus a higher combined limit
Best for Lower costs, local care Flexibility, travel, keeping specific doctors

Devoted Drug Coverage for 2027

Most Devoted Medicare Advantage plans include Part D drug coverage. Each plan has its own formulary, drug tiers and pharmacy network, and plans commonly charge less at preferred pharmacies and through mail order. For 2027, any plan’s Part D deductible can be up to $700, and the out-of-pocket cap on covered drugs is $2,400.

Tier Typical Drugs Typical Cost
Tier 1 Preferred generics Lowest copay
Tier 2 Generics Low copay
Tier 3 Preferred brand-name drugs Moderate copay
Tier 4 Non-preferred drugs Higher copay or coinsurance
Tier 5 Specialty drugs Highest coinsurance

Each plan sets its own tiers. Review every plan’s formulary.

A drug you take may not be on a plan’s 2027 formulary, or it may come with a rule such as prior authorization. Even then, you have options:

If Your Drug Is Not Covered

1

Request a transition fill. During the first 90 days of a new plan or plan year, plans generally have to provide a temporary supply of a drug you already take, giving you time to change drugs or ask for an exception.

2

Talk to your doctor about other options. A covered drug from the same class could work just as well for less money.

3

Ask for a tiering or formulary exception. Your doctor sends a statement explaining why you need the drug or a lower copay. Plans have to decide within set time limits.

4

Challenge a denial. When the plan turns you down, you have the right to appeal through several levels of review.

See steps to appeal a Medicare Part D denial.

If Your Plan Is Ending

A Devoted plan that will not be offered in your county for 2027 should have triggered a non-renewal notice in early October. Coverage does not end immediately: it runs through December 31, 2026, giving you time to decide.

If Your Plan Is Ending

1

Review your non-renewal letter. It verifies that your plan is ending and lays out your choices.

2

Write down your doctors and drugs. Comparing replacement plans requires them.

3

Compare your 2027 plan choices. Look at networks, drug coverage and the out-of-pocket maximum, not only the premium.

4

Pick a plan by December 31 to avoid a gap. If you enroll during Annual Enrollment by December 7, your coverage starts January 1, 2027.

5

Rely on your Special Enrollment Period if necessary. If your plan is ending, you generally have until the end of February 2027 to make a choice.

If you take no action: on January 1, 2027, you go back to Original Medicare, and you will have no drug coverage unless you pick a Part D plan. Being without drug coverage may result in a late enrollment penalty.

Medigap rights: if your Medicare Advantage plan exits your area, you generally get a guaranteed issue right, lasting up to 63 days after your coverage ends, to purchase certain Medicare Supplement plans with no health questions.

How to Compare Devoted Plans for 2027

How to Compare

1

Review your Annual Notice of Change. It spells out every 2027 change to the plan you have now.

2

Verify your doctors and hospitals. Make sure every provider is in the 2027 network, not only the 2026 network.

3

Review your prescriptions. Verify every drug, the tier it falls on and any step therapy or prior authorization rules.

4

Look at the full annual cost. Total up the premium, usual copays and drug costs, and review the out-of-pocket maximum.

5

Look at star ratings. Medicare scores plans on quality and service using a 1 to 5 star scale.

6

Sign up by December 7. Coverage under your new plan begins January 1, 2027.

2027 Enrollment Dates

Enrollment Period Dates What You Can Do
Annual Enrollment Period October 15 to December 7, 2026 Join, change or drop a Medicare Advantage or Part D plan effective January 1, 2027
Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment January 1 to March 31, 2027 In Medicare Advantage, you can change to another plan or go back to Original Medicare one time
Initial Enrollment Period 7 months around your 65th birthday month Sign up for Medicare and choose your first plan
Special Enrollment Periods Varies Switch plans after events such as a move, a loss of other coverage or your plan exiting your area

Annual Enrollment is when most people make changes. If you like your current plan, no action is needed; it renews on its own. Even so, review your Annual Notice of Change, since networks, premiums, copays and drug lists can all change on January 1.

Special Needs Plans

Special Needs Plans (SNPs) are Medicare Advantage plans designed for particular groups. Their benefits, networks and drug lists are shaped around the members they serve, and many come with care coordinators. In 2027, SNPs are one of the few places large insurers are adding plans, even while cutting PPOs.

Type Who Qualifies What Is Different
Dual Special Needs Plan (D-SNP) People with both Medicare and Medicaid Coordinates both programs; costs are often very low, with extra benefits
Chronic Condition SNP (C-SNP) People who have qualifying conditions like diabetes, heart failure or chronic lung disease Doctors, drugs and programs designed around the condition
Institutional SNP (I-SNP) People who live in a nursing home or need that level of care at home Care delivered where the member lives

Turning 65 in 2027

When you turn 65 in 2027, you get a seven-month Initial Enrollment Period: the three months before your birthday month, the birthday month itself and the three months that follow. If you sign up in the first three months, coverage begins on the first day of your birthday month.

Turning 65 Checklist

✔

Enroll in Part A and Part B, unless you have qualifying employer coverage and decide to postpone Part B

✔

Choose between Medicare Advantage and Original Medicare plus Medigap

✔

Enroll in a drug plan, or a Medicare Advantage plan that includes drugs, to avoid a late Part D penalty

✔

If you go with Medigap, purchase during your six-month Medigap Open Enrollment Period

Star Ratings

Each fall, Medicare gives every Medicare Advantage and Part D plan a rating of 1 to 5 stars, based on factors such as preventive care, how well chronic conditions are managed, member complaints, customer service and accuracy of drug pricing. You can see the ratings in Medicare Plan Finder.

Using Star Ratings

✔

Ratings of 4 stars or more are generally a good indicator of quality and service

✔

A special enrollment period lets you move into a five-star plan once during the year

✔

A new plan may not have a rating yet, and that alone isn’t a bad sign

✔

Ratings reflect the plan as a whole, not how well it covers your particular doctors and drugs

Medicare Advantage or Medigap?

Medicare Advantage Original Medicare + Medigap
Monthly premium Often low or $0 (2027 average $12, CMS) Higher; varies by plan letter, age and ZIP
Doctors Usually a network Any provider in the U.S. that accepts Medicare
Costs when you get care Copays and coinsurance up to a yearly maximum Low and predictable; on Plan G, little or nothing once the Part B deductible is met
Drug coverage Usually included Add a separate Part D plan
Dental, vision, hearing Many plans may include some coverage Not included
Changing later Every year during Annual Enrollment Health questions in most states once your Medigap Open Enrollment Period ends

Guaranteed issue: when your Medicare Advantage plan exits your area, you can generally purchase certain Medicare Supplement plans with no health questions asked, up until 63 days after that coverage ends.

Help Paying Medicare Costs

When your income and savings are limited, two programs can greatly lower your Medicare costs:

Medicare Savings Programs

✔

Run by your state Medicaid office

✔

May cover your Part B premium, and in some cases deductibles and coinsurance

✔

Income and asset limits vary by state

Extra Help (Part D)

✔

Run by Social Security

✔

Lowers Part D premiums, deductibles and copays

✔

Those enrolled in a Medicare Savings Program qualify automatically

If you qualify for both Medicare and full Medicaid, you may also be able to join a Dual Special Needs Plan. See help for low-income Part D beneficiaries.

Frequently Asked Questions

➤ Is Devoted expanding for 2027?

Yes. Devoted Health is adding 342 counties for 2027, one of the larger expansions announced this year. That growth stands out at a time when several big insurers are cutting counties, though availability still depends on whether Devoted serves your specific county.

➤ Which states is Devoted entering?

Devoted is entering Connecticut, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey and New York for 2027. Plans will not necessarily be offered in every county of those states, so enter your ZIP code in a plan search tool to confirm whether Devoted is available where you live.

➤ When can I enroll in a Devoted Medicare Advantage plan for 2027?

You can enroll during Annual Enrollment, which runs from October 15 to December 7, 2026, with coverage beginning January 1, 2027. If you are already in a Medicare Advantage plan, you also get one switch during Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment from January 1 to March 31, 2027.

➤ What happens if my Medicare Advantage plan is ending?

Your plan still covers you through December 31, 2026, and a non-renewal notice should arrive explaining your choices. You qualify for a Special Enrollment Period and can also use Annual Enrollment, and you generally have a guaranteed issue right to buy certain Medigap plans within about 63 days after coverage ends.

➤ Is Devoted a good option if my current plan is leaving my county?

It could be, if Devoted serves your county and your doctors are in its network. With insurers such as Humana, Aetna and UnitedHealthcare exiting some counties for 2027, Devoted’s expansion may give displaced members another choice, but compare networks, drug coverage and costs first.

➤ What extra benefits might a Devoted plan include for 2027?

Devoted plans may include extras such as dental, vision, hearing or fitness benefits, depending on the plan and area. Not all plans offer all benefits, and 2027 details can change, so review the plan’s Summary of Benefits and Evidence of Coverage before enrolling.

➤ Do Devoted Medicare Advantage plans include prescription drug coverage?

Many Medicare Advantage plans include Part D drug coverage, and Devoted may offer such plans in your area. For 2027 the Part D out-of-pocket cap is $2,400, so check that your medicines are on the plan’s formulary and note which pharmacies are preferred.

➤ How do I compare Devoted with other Medicare Advantage plans near me?

Start with the Medicare Plan Finder or a licensed agent, entering your ZIP code, doctors and prescriptions. Then line up premiums, deductibles, out-of-pocket maximums and network type side by side, since the national average Medicare Advantage premium is about $12 for 2027.
