11 general Medicare Advantage plans sold in Rush County in 2026 are not offered here for 2027. 6 are discontinued everywhere; 5 left this county but still sell elsewhere. Here is the list from the federal plan file, what remains, and the three doors the October letter opens.
The bottom line
- 11 plans sold in Rush County in 2026 are gone for 2027, led by Humana USAA Honor Giveback with Rx (H7617-060) with 131 members here in September 2026. Coverage under a discontinued plan ends December 31, 2026.
- 817 people here were enrolled in the ending plans in September 2026, per CMS; 3 of the plans had fewer than 11 members here, a count CMS suppresses.

- Non-renewal letters are dated on or about October 2. Choose between October 15 and December 7; the Medigap guaranteed-issue window runs November 1 to March 4.
If your card shows one of the plans below, your plan is ending in Rush County and you need to choose 2027 coverage this fall. Everything on this page comes from the plan file CMS publishes each fall and its monthly enrollment report, compared plan number by plan number, not from a mailer. Carrier names are factual reporting, not criticism; plans from most companies changed somewhere for 2027.

What the rest of Rush County looks like for 2027
Sources: CMS landscape files (MA and MA-PD rows, SNP indicator No) · CMS 2027 state fact sheets (Indiana has 8 stand-alone drug plans for 2027). Companies for 2027: Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, Anthem HealthKeepers, Devoted Health, Humana, MyTruAdvantage, Wellcare.
The letter, and what it does not mean
Federal rules require a plan that is not renewing to notify each member by mail at least 90 calendar days before the plan ends (42 CFR § 422.506); for a December 31 end that puts the notice at October 2, and Medicare.gov describes the same letter (when a plan is no longer available in your area). It is a separate envelope from the Annual Notice of Change, which every plan sent by September 30. A plan that merely left this county while continuing elsewhere sends the same kind of notice to its members here.
The letter does not mean you are losing Medicare; Parts A and B are untouched. It does not mean your doctors are leaving. And it does not mean you need to call anyone to cancel: the plan ends on its own on December 31. Keep it. It is the document that proves your Medigap right.
Your three doors
- Another Medicare Advantage plan from the 6 companies still in Rush County, chosen during October 15 – December 7 so it starts January 1 (Medicare.gov). Compare in this order: your doctors and hospital, your prescriptions, the in-network cap, then the premium.
- Original Medicare plus a Medigap policy plus a stand-alone drug plan. The exit opens the door: per Medicare.gov, when your plan leaves Medicare or your area you may buy Medigap Plan A, B, D, G, K or L with no health questions, applying as early as 60 days before and no later than 63 days after your coverage ends: November 1, 2026 through March 4, 2027. Plans C and F only if you were Medicare-eligible before 2020. No network: any provider that accepts Medicare. Indiana has 8 stand-alone drug plans for 2027.
- Original Medicare plus a drug plan, no Medigap. Lowest premium, no network, no annual cap on your 20% share. Price it against your health before accepting it.
If you miss December 7, a discontinued plan also gives you a Special Enrollment Period from December 8 through February 28 to pick another Advantage plan (42 CFR § 422.62), but a plan chosen in January starts February 1, and January would be spent in Original Medicare with no drug coverage. A safety net, not a plan.

| When | What happens | |
|---|---|---|
| By September 30, 2026 | Every plan's Annual Notice of Change is due — the other letter. | Read |
| On or about October 2, 2026 | Non-renewal notice from a discontinued plan: it ends December 31, here are your windows, here is a Medigap fact sheet. | Keep it |
| Oct 15 – Dec 7, 2026 | Annual Enrollment Period — choose 2027 coverage; it starts January 1. | Act |
| Nov 1, 2026 – Mar 4, 2027 | Medigap guaranteed-issue window: 60 days before your plan ends through 63 days after. | Medigap door |
| Dec 8, 2026 – Feb 28, 2027 | Special Enrollment Period for members of a discontinued plan — but a January pick starts February 1. | Backstop |
| Doing nothing | January 1 you are in Original Medicare with no drug plan and no out-of-pocket cap. | Risk |
What I would do this week
- Find both letters, the Annual Notice of Change and any non-renewal notice, and put the second one where you can find it in February.
- Write down every doctor you see, every prescription, and your pharmacy. Nothing can be compared until that list exists.
- Decide the door before the plan. Advantage versus Medigap is the bigger decision. If you lean Medigap, the window opens November 1; there is no reason to wait for December.
- Ignore the phone calls. A plan ending is a magnet for marketing. Nobody can enroll you in a 2027 plan before October 15, and no legitimate agent needs your Medicare number to "check" anything.
- Enroll between October 15 and December 7. Earlier is fine; CMS says the last enrollment request wins, so you can change your mind inside the window.
How we know all this: the Medicare On Main Data Desk frames every page with public data, here the CMS CY2026 and CY2027 landscape files compared by Contract Plan ID, CMS's September 2026 county-level enrollment report, CMS's September 28, 2026 state fact sheets, and the federal rules and Medicare.gov pages on non-renewal notices, enrollment periods and Medigap guaranteed-issue rights. Mentioning a carrier is factual reporting, not endorsement or criticism. This is education, not advice; confirm plans, costs and eligibility with a licensed agent or Medicare.gov. We take no payment from any carrier to feature a plan.
Frequently asked questions
Is my Medicare Advantage plan ending in Rush County for 2027?
11 general Medicare Advantage plans sold in Rush County, Indiana in 2026 are not offered here for 2027: Humana USAA Honor Giveback with Rx (H7617-060); Humana USAA Honor Giveback with Rx (H5216-307); AARP Medicare Advantage from UHC IN-0007 (H2406-067); Wellcare Assist (H3499-008); Wellcare Patriot Giveback Open (H6348-005); Wellcare Assist Open (H6348-009); AARP Medicare Advantage Essentials from UHC IN-12 (H2802-010); AARP Medicare Advantage from UHC IN-0002 (H2406-037); AARP Medicare Advantage Giveback from UHC IN-20 (H2802-059); AARP Medicare Advantage Extras from UHC IN-17 (H2802-056); AARP Medicare Advantage Patriot No Rx IN-MA01 (H2406-074). 6 of them do not appear anywhere in the CMS 2027 plan file and are being discontinued; 5 are still sold in other counties but no longer here. If your plan is on the list, you need to choose 2027 coverage between October 15 and December 7, 2026.
How many people in Rush County are affected?
817 people here were enrolled in the ending plans in September 2026, per CMS; 3 of the plans had fewer than 11 members here, a count CMS suppresses. Those counts are the plans' total September 2026 enrollment in this county, including any employer-group members, so the number of individual members choosing a new plan may be somewhat lower.
Which Medicare Advantage plans are new in Rush County for 2027?
6 general plans are listed for Rush County in 2027 that were not sold here in 2026: MyTruAdvantage Select (HMO, H6529-004, $0 premium, $3,900 in-network cap); DEVOTED CHOICE GIVEBACK EXTRAS 023 IN (PPO, H7471-023, $0 premium, $7,300 in-network cap); Humana Essentials Plus Giveback (PPO, H7617-144, $0 premium, $9,850 in-network cap); MyTruAdvantage Choice Complete (PPO, H9042-004, $17 premium, $4,460 in-network cap); MyTruAdvantage Choice Plus (PPO, H9042-007, $0 premium, $4,700 in-network cap); Red, White and Tru (PPO, H9042-008, n/a premium, $5,500 in-network cap). Listing a plan is not a recommendation.
Will I be moved to another plan automatically?
Not into a plan from a different company. If your plan is discontinued and you do nothing, you return to Original Medicare on January 1, 2027 with no drug coverage and no annual out-of-pocket cap. Some carriers do move members into a sister plan under the same contract; the non-renewal letter dated on or about October 2 says whether yours does. Read it, and keep it.
Can I buy a Medigap plan without health questions if my plan ends?
Generally, yes. When a Medicare Advantage plan leaves Medicare or your area and you return to Original Medicare, Medicare.gov says you have a guaranteed-issue right to buy Medigap Plan A, B, D, G, K or L (C or F if you were eligible for Medicare before 2020), applying as early as 60 days before and no later than 63 days after your coverage ends: November 1, 2026 through March 4, 2027 for a December 31 end date. Some states add further rights; ask.
Can Medicare On Main help in Indiana?
Yes, by phone. Brian Penner is an independent licensed Medicare advisor, licensed in Indiana (see our license verification page), paid by the carriers rather than by you. We do not offer every plan available in Rush County, and we will tell you plainly when Medicare.gov, 1-800-MEDICARE or your State Health Insurance Assistance Program is the right next stop.
