  Health Alliance Medicare is a health plan with a Medicare contract.

Health Alliance offers a variety of Medicare plans for practically every need and budget:

2010 Medicare Advantage


Medicare HMO 20 (HMO)—Your costs for covered medical services are capped at $1,500 each year. You choose among the doctors and hospitals in our broad network for routine care. Available to all beneficiaries in a 10-county area of east central Illinois. Basic or comprehensive Part D pharmacy coverage can be added to Medicare HMO 20 (HMO).

Medicare PPO 30 (PPO)—With Medicare PPO 30 (PPO), you have the flexibility of visiting any provider, but your coverage will be greater when you see in-network providers. You also enjoy a $3,000 out-of-pocket maximum for in-network medical services and lower monthly premiums. In exchange, the copayments for services received may be slightly higher than those for other Health Alliance Medicare plans. Available to all beneficiaries in a 40-county area of central Illinois. Basic or comprehensive Part D pharmacy coverage can be added to Medicare PPO 30 (PPO).

Medicare PPO 10 (PPO)—For a moderate monthly premium, you get comprehensive medical coverage, and your costs for covered in-network medical services are capped at $1,500 each year. With PPO 10 (PPO), you can choose to use non-plan providers to get covered services; however, if you do so, it may cost you more to use them. Available to all beneficiaries in a 40-county area of central Illinois. Basic or comprehensive Part D pharmacy coverage can be added to Medicare PPO 10 (PPO).
