PrimeTime Health Plan
Quality

Local care means you get top-rated Medicare Advantage service.

Your locally owned Medicare Advantage Plan has the best rating you can get.

PrimeTime Health Plan gets 5 out of a possible 5 stars!

Get 5-star treatment with PrimeTime Health Plan. For 2024, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) awarded PrimeTime Health Plan its highest rating of 5-stars.

How does it work?

  • Medicare gets information from member satisfaction surveys, plans and healthcare providers.
  • Medicare scores how well plans perform in several categories, including quality of care and customer service.
  • Each fall, Medicare gives overall performance ratings between 1 and 5 stars based on that information.
  • Star Ratings are released annually and reflect the experiences of people enrolled in Medicare Advantage plans.
  • A 5-star rating is considered excellent.
  • The Star Ratings system supports the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services efforts to empower people to make health care decisions that are best for them.
  • These ratings help you compare plans based on quality and performance.
  • You can switch from your current Medicare plan to one with a “5-star” quality rating during what’s called a Special Enrollment Period.
  • You may do this only once and between December 8 and November 30.
  • As CMS puts it, “More stars mean a better plan — for example, members may get better care and better, faster customer service.”
PrimeTime Health Plan's mission is to lead our community to improved health. We are committing to providing you with a superior level of customer service and access to quality care. To achieve our goal, we continually monitor and evaluate our performance against rigorous national and regional standards. To do this, we utilize data from HEDIS® and CAHPS® every year.
What is HEDIS® and CAHPS®?

HEDIS® is the Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set. Insurance companies across the United States participate in HEDIS® data collection making it one of the best ways to gauge our performance against benchmarks. This data set includes over 90 measures that evaluate six different domains, including:

  o  Effectiveness of Care
  o  Access/Availability of Care
  o  Experience of Care
  o  Utilization and Risk-Adjusted Utilization
  o  Health Plan Descriptive Information
  o  Measures Collected Using Electronic Clinical Data System

CAHPS® is the Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems. This set of surveys asks patients to report on their healthcare experiences with both their health plan and their providers. This data is collected annually and plays a key role in how we strive to improve year after year.
