What is a UnitedHealthcare Group Medicare Advantage plan?

A UnitedHealthcare Group Medicare Advantage plan is a type of Medicare Advantage plan. It’s offered by employers or plan sponsors to their retired employees. Spouses/dependents of retired employees may also be eligible for coverage. 

What makes a Group Medicare Advantage plan different than other Medicare plans?

A UnitedHealthcare Group Medicare Advantage plan is designed exclusively for eligible retirees and their dependents. These plans are often more affordable than individual Medicare plans because of group pricing and employer/plan sponsor subsidies. This means your retirees don’t have to choose between affordability and flexibility — they get both.

What do UnitedHealthcare Group Medicare Advantage plans include?

These group retiree plans provide all the benefits of Original Medicare (Parts A & B). They also offer a combination of benefits designed to help your retirees get the most from their retirement. Benefits include:

Low out-of-pocket costs

Many members will have lower total annual costs than members enrolled in individual Medicare plans.1

Prescription drug coverage (Part D)

These plans often have a broader formulary and pharmacy network than any individual UnitedHealthcare Medicare Advantage plan.2

Nationwide access

Members have access to more than 1 million network providers, as well as any other Medicare provider accepting the plan.2 This is especially helpful for retirees who travel or live in multiple states.

Additional benefits

Members can enjoy extras like wellness programs, fitness memberships, virtual care and global emergency coverage.
