Simply Healthcare Plans and its affiliates, Better Health and Clear Health Alliance continue to serve more than 190,000 Medicare and Medicaid members throughout Florida. Our commitment to provide value to both our members and providers is of the atmost importance. Through Simply Healthcare Medicare Advantage Plans alone, we deliver healthcare coverage to over 20,000 Medicare Beneficiaries in Miami-Dade, Polk, Orange, Osceola and Seminole counties.

As of January 1st, 2015, Simply Healthcare Plans will no longer be available to Medicare beneficiaries residing in Broward, Palm Beach, Duval, Clay, Brevard, Hillsborough, Hernando, Pasco and Pinellas counties in Florida.

This is to advise you that your Medicare patients will be receiving a formal notice from Simply Healthcare dated Oct. 2, 2014. The CMS approved letter will be sent to the affected members which will provide information to help them make informed decisions about their Medicare coverage options for 2015. These members will also receive instructions about their eligibility to enroll in another Medicare health plan. If your Medicare patients do not sign up for a new plan by the end of 2014, their current coverage will end Dec, 31, 2014. Your Medicare patients will then be covered through Original Medicare beginning Jan 1, 2015.

The status of your Simply Healthcare Provider Agreement will not be affected. We are continuously evaluating our Medicare Advantage products to ensure that they meet our member needs for access, cost and quality.
