From Memorial Herman: "After thoughtful review, Memorial Hermann has made the decision to wind down and close the Memorial Hermann Medicare Advantage Plan (MA Plan), which will no longer be offered in 2027. Current MA Plan coverage remains in effect through December 31, 2026. Members can continue using their benefits and receiving covered care through that date.
We will work closely with brokers, delegated vendors and providers to ensure a smooth transition of coverage.
Why We've Made this Decision
This decision reflects our responsibility to ensure every part of our work advances our core mission.
While we are deeply proud of the impact we've made through the MA Plan, the health care landscape has evolved significantly, and health system-owned plans are facing increased pressures - from intensifying competition, regulatory uncertainty, increased compliance burdens and more.
In this setting, it is important that we are disciplined in managing the financial impact of our environment while prioritizing high-value care.
By narrowing our focus on our System's core strengths, including care delivery, access and clinical excellence, we can advance our mission while positioning the System for sustainable growth."
