California Medicare Advantage Part C Plans

Medicare Advantage Plans work like traditional HMOs and PPOs. We also offer Dual Eligible Special Needs Plans for those who qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid. All our Medicare Advantage Plans come with preventive care benefits to help keep you healthy and on the go.

Anthem MediBlue HMO

With Anthem MediBlue HMOs, you benefit from our leading network of doctors and care providers. You’ll save on monthly premiums with rates as low as $0 and save on doctor visits, too. On a Medicare Advantage HMO plan, you’ll choose a primary care physician (PCP) who you’ll see for all your check-ups and regular exams. Your PCP also directs you to the right specialists when you need them.

Anthem MediBlue PPO

On an Anthem Medicare Advantage PPO, you’ll have lots of flexibility. You’ll still pick a primary care physician for check-ups, but you can also choose to see any doctor or specialist in your network without needing a referral. At Anthem, our network is always growing to serve you better. You can also see doctors outside your network but services may cost more.
