AEP UPDATE

 

Week 3:

 

 


Highmark's 2020 Medicare Star Ratings are now Available! 

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released Highmark’s 2020 Medicare Star Ratings earlier this month. We are pleased to announce that our Community Blue Medicare PPO and Freedom Blue PPO plans in Pennsylvania obtained a Star Rating of 4.5! 

This is the 7th consecutive year that our Security Blue HMO product has been rated 4 Stars or higher. It is also the 6th consecutive year that our Freedom Blue PPO products in PA have received at least a 4 Star rating. Our Star Ratings performance reflects our commitment and ongoing investment to improve the health care experience for our members.

 

We have provided electronic versions (embedded as a link) 
of the Star Ratings below for you to download and print:
 

 

Community Blue Medicare PPO: 4.5 Star Rating

Community Blue Medicare HMO: 4 Star Rating
Freedom Blue PPO: 4.5 Star Rating

Please ensure that the current Star Ratings contained in your enrollment kits are up-to-date. If you previously ordered enrollment kits, we will be mailing you copies of the new Star Ratings. Any kits ordered on 10/25/19 or later, will contain the new ratings and will not require any updates.
