LONG BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--For the fourth year in a row, SCAN Health Plan, one of the nation’s largest not-for-profit Medicare Advantage plans, was named to U.S. News & World Report’s 2022 list of Best Insurance Companies for Medicare Advantage.
The honor, one of the highest accolades Medicare Advantage plans can achieve, comes on the heels of news that SCAN has become the only Medicare Advantage plan in California to earn a 4.5-star rating from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) for five consecutive years.
“These back-to-back honors validate the dedication and commitment of SCAN’s employees, providers and partners to go above and beyond, every day, to meet and exceed the needs of older adults,” said Dr. Sachin Jain, president and CEO of SCAN Group and SCAN Health Plan.
Jain noted that SCAN also recently achieved the highest member satisfaction rating of any California-wide plan for 2022, according to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). SCAN members gave their health plan an overall 91% rating on CMS’s annual Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers & Systems (CAHPS) survey, which gauges member satisfaction. It is the fourth year in a row that SCAN has scored 90% or higher.
The U.S. News ranking, star ratings and member satisfaction scores are used by millions of seniors to choose Medicare Advantage plans for the coming year.
4.5 out of 5 Star Rating applies to all plans offered by SCAN Health Plan in California from 2018 to 2022 except SCAN Healthy at Home (HMO SNP) and VillageHealth (HMO-POS SNP) plans. Every year, Medicare evaluates plans based on a 5-star rating system.
