Business · UnitedHealthcare and Humana to end Medicare Advantage plans for nearly one million seniors

The two largest Medicare Advantage (MA) insurers, UnitedHealthcare (UHC) and Humana, are terminating plans covering nearly one million seniors in 2027, according to a Healthcare Brew report. The moves reflect a broader industry retrenchment as payers respond to rising utilisation and medical costs by reducing benefits, shifting enrollees into narrower networks and canceling low-return plans, even as the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services describes the market as stable.
