Baptist Health: What You Need to Know About Changes to Your Medicare Advantage Plan

Updated: May 7

If you are on a Humana, United Healthcare, or Wellcare Medicare Advantage Plan and have Baptist Healthcare Doctors/Specialists, you must review your options. So what do you do?

Medicare Advantage Plans and Baptist Health Network Coverage.


At this time, there is a lot of confusion and conflicting messaging about what is happening with Baptist Health and Medicare Advantage, and we would like to help clear it up.


After September 22, 2023, Humana and Baptist Health did not reach an agreement, which means their patients with Humana Medicare Advantage Plans may no longer be in-network in Indiana and Kentucky. Now Baptist Health is facing a new deadline with two other carriers, United Healthcare and Wellcare. The deadline is scheduled for December 31st of this year. If you are on any of the Medicare Advantage Plans listed, don't panic. You do have options.


According to the Baptist Health website (updated on 10/9/23), they have been working to secure new agreements with their Medicare Advantage insurance partners.

"Our goal is to protect our patients’ trusted relationship with their physician and their in-network access to the high-quality care they need from our hospitals, outpatient facilities and physician offices. It is our hope to reach agreements before the end of the year to avoid any disruption of in-network access."

The Medicare Annual Enrollment is running now until December 7th. Depending on your current Medicare Advantage Plan, you could be just fine. The best way to find out is to work with your trusted Medicare agent, and if you do not have one, we are happy to review your current plan to see your options or provide information on alternatives that are equal to or better than what you have. There is a silver lining that you may find something better.
