(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) ORANGE, Calif., Nov. 13, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via IBN – Astiva Health, a fast-growing leader in culturally responsive Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug (MAPD) health plans, proudly announces that it has earned a prestigious 4-star rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) for 2025. This notable achievement highlights Astiva Health's commitment to delivering high-quality, personalized healthcare, particularly to underserved populations across Southern California.
What CMS Star Ratings Mean for Medicare Advantage Plans
The CMS Star Rating system evaluates Medicare Advantage (Part C) and Prescription Drug (Part D) plans on more than 40 quality and performance measures. These include preventive care, member experience, access to care, and chronic disease management. Astiva Health's 4-star rating places it among the top-rated health plan companies in California, enhancing its ability to provide exceptional care and adding benefits to its members.
Financial Implications and Member Benefits
CMS Star Ratings have significant financial implications for Medicare Advantage plans. High-rated plans like Astiva Health can receive up to $1,200 more per beneficiary annually compared to lower-rated plans. This increased funding will be reinvested into expanded member benefits, such as lower co-pays, reduced out-of-pocket expenses, and enhanced supplemental services-including vision, dental, transportation, and fitness programs.
These improvements further fuel member satisfaction and growth, positioning Astiva Health as a leading force in California's Medicare Advantage market.
A Standout in California's Medicare Market
California is home to 95 full-service Medicare Advantage health plan companies. Within Astiva Health's service areas, only 7 companies, including Astiva Health, have earned a 4-star or higher rating for 2025 . This distinction emphasizes Astiva Health's focus on delivering culturally aware, community-based healthcare solutions, ensuring that the diverse senior population across Southern California receives personalized care and access to essential resources.
Key Highlights of the 2025 Star Ratings:
Only seven Medicare Advantage health plan companies within Astiva Health's service areas earned 4 stars or higher for 2025. High Star Ratings improve plan funding, which is reinvested in enhanced member benefits, expanded provider networks, and improved member satisfaction.
Timing With Open Enrollment
Astiva Health's 4-star rating comes at an ideal time, as the Medicare open enrollment period is currently underway (October 15 – December 7, 2024). During this time, eligible beneficiaries can make changes to their Medicare coverage. With its 4-star rating, Astiva Health stands out as an attractive option for beneficiaries seeking high-quality care, financial benefits such as grocery rebates, and wellness programs designed to improve their overall quality of life.
