How do Medicare Advantage star ratings affect the quality of care I can expect?
Answered by 2 licensed agents
Medicare advantage ratings are a great way to rate the effectiveness of a plan. If you just go off of a plans benefit amounts, you may be turning a blind eye to poor service or low network quality. The star ratings really do give an accurate description of how well or poor a plan performs..

Generally, yes star ratings are an important factor when choosing a plan.
Medicare rates plans based on their health and drug services from poor to excellent. (1 to 5 stars)
5 star rating is the highest/Excellent.
Star ratings are based on factors that include:
1. Feedback from members about the plan's service and care
2. The number of members who left or stayed with the plan
3. The number of complaints Medicare got about the plan
4. Data from doctors and hospitals that work with the plan
