Medicare Advantage PPO plans in Louisiana
There are 49 Medicare Advantage PPO plans in Louisiana from 6 carriers, averaging 4.04 out of 5 stars across the 25 plans CMS has rated. 75% of those with a published premium charge $0 a month (37 of 49); beyond the premium, what separates them is network, drug coverage and how much you could owe in a bad year.
Across the 49 PPO plans in Louisiana that publish one, the in-network out-of-pocket maximum has a median of $7,050 and tops out at $9,850 — the ceiling on what you pay in a year for covered in-network care. The mean is $7,462, which sits above the median — the spread is not symmetric, so the median is the better guide.
24 of Louisiana's PPO plans carry no star rating yet.
CMS rates a contract, not a plan, and does not rate one that is too new or has too little data — so 24 plans here shows no rating at all. Unrated is not the same as badly rated; it usually means a new contract, and those plans have to be judged on benefits and network instead.
Louisiana PPO plans rank 18th of 51 on star rating.
Across the 25 rated plans here the average overall rating is 4.04 stars, 18th highest of the 51 states with PPO plans. Ratings apply to the contract, so every plan a carrier files under one contract shares the same score.
