Medicare Advantage plans in Delaware

A $0 plan premium is not a free plan. You still pay your Part B premium to Medicare, plus copays and coinsurance as you use care. CMS publishes star ratings per contract, so plans a carrier files under one contract all share a rating.

HMO plans in Delaware rate below the national average.

The 17 rated HMO plans here average 3.29 stars against a national median of 3.75. That is a reason to compare carefully rather than to rule the state out — 5 plans here still rate 4 stars or better, and the rating describes the contract, not any one plan's benefits.

Other Medicare coverage

Every figure on this page covers HMO and PPO plans. A small number of PFFS and Cost plans are sold in some states and are not included above — there are too few nationally (71 across 17 states) to compare meaningfully. Standalone Part D drug plans and PACE programmes are different products entirely and are not Medicare Advantage; you can find any available on the full Delaware plan list. Delaware has 1 five-star plan, which can be joined outside the normal enrolment window.
