BETHESDA, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- <\/p>\n
Coventry Health Care today announced the expansion of its Medicare Advantage service area to 26 counties across Louisiana and West Virginia and in 48 additional counties in 16 other states for 2014. The low-cost Medicare Advantage HMO and PPO plans offer beneficiaries more choice for affordable and convenient coverage alternatives with attractive benefits, including $0-premium plans in some areas, low copayments for primary care physician visits and fitness programs. <\/p>\n
Coventrys Medicare Advantage plans are some of the highest quality rated plans in the country by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS),* and are designed to provide members affordable and convenient coverage alternatives. Most plans offer extra benefits not covered under Original Medicare (like prescription drug coverage and comprehensive dental, eyewear and hearing-aid benefits), and several plans offer extras, such as fitness club memberships. <\/p>\n
This expansion marks Coventrys commitment to provide Medicare beneficiaries with more benefit options and greater provider choice, said Armando Luna, Jr., vice president, Medicare Marketing and Sales for Coventry Health Care. We are excited about the opportunity to offer more beneficiaries access to convenient, quality health care at prices they can afford. <\/p>\n
