Alignment Health Plan Named a “Best” Medicare Advantage Insurer in California by U.S. News & World Report

PPO achieves 4.5 stars, HMO 4 stars in 2025 from Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services

ORANGE, Calif., Oct. 30, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  , an award-winning Medicare Advantage plan from Alignment Health, has been named to U.S. News & World Report’s Honor Roll in California. With more than 400 MA plans offered in California, Alignment is one of only six insurers in the state to earn , which recognizes insurers with a U.S. News rating above 3.8 on a 5-point scale.1

To calculate its 2025 rankings, U.S. News & World Report consulted with Medicare experts to identify more than 30 quality measures from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and assigned each measure a weight reflecting its relevance to consumers. The results for a provider's plans were averaged together, with greater weight assigned to plans having the highest enrollments.

“We are honored to be recognized once again for delivering high-quality, affordable care that supports the diverse health needs of our members,” said Dawn Maroney, CEO of Alignment Health Plan and president, markets of Alignment Health. “With our California HMO earning 4 stars or higher for eight consecutive years and our PPO achieving 4.5 stars, we’re proud to offer plans that provide both quality and choice. We look forward to helping more seniors find the plan that best serves their unique needs this annual enrollment period.”

Alignment is offering a broad portfolio of MA plans across California in 2025, including HMO, PPO and special needs plans (SNPs), available to nearly 5.8 million Medicare-eligible seniors across 22 counties.2 Members who enroll with Alignment during the annual enrollment period (Oct. 15-Dec. 7) will have access to the company’s 24/7 ACCESS On-Demand Concierge for health-related questions, scheduling medical appointments and arranging transportation at no additional cost.

Key highlights of Alignment’s California plans:

  • PPO plans, including Balance PPO and My Choice PPO, which earned 4.5 star from CMS, offering more flexible care options than an HMO.3
  • $0 to low premium and $0 copay for Part D generic prescription drugs in its HMO plans, which earned 4 stars in California, marking the eighth straight year as a 4-star or greater plan.
  • Two new HMO chronic condition SNPs for members with lung conditions and chronic or disabling mental health conditions, available in select counties.

In addition to California, Alignment offers a diverse range of 2025 product offerings, benefits and services in select counties in Arizona, Nevada, North Carolina and Texas. To learn more, visit .
