Why Choose UCLA Health Medicare Advantage Plan?
Two Doctor-Designed Plans for Patient-Centered Care
Our decades of experience allowed us to see where other insurance plans’ pain points lie. We then listened to what members wanted to create a new kind of Medicare Advantage plan for Los Angeles that puts patient care first and prioritizes referrals for a streamlined member experience.
World-class care meets best-in-community care. Count on high-quality care from local physicians and specialists, and access UCLA Health’s world-class resources and innovative research when needed.
Get comprehensive coverage in one affordable package with no or low monthly premiums, prescription drug coverage, and dental, vision, and hearing benefits. Plus, a Smart Benefits Card with up to $400 per year for eligible healthcare expenses and $50 per quarter for over-the-counter products for Principal Plan members. Up to $650 per year for eligible healthcare expenses and $100 per quarter for over-the-counter products for Prestige Plan members. The Medicare Advantage plan benefits are greater than Original Medicare alone.
