Medicare beneficiaries can take advantage of these benefits for no monthly plan premium.
“Given the current economic situation, Medicare eligibles and their families are understandably concerned about getting the most value for their dollar,” said Kenneth Stephens, director of Medicare Programs. “The Medicare Advantage plans offered by Coventry Health Care offer a way to get coverage and service beyond what is offered by Original Medicare.”
“Our priorities are to help Medicare eligible beneficiaries be healthy, save money and be independent,” he added.

Coventry® Health Care is also working with licensed insurance agents and brokers statewide to provide information to their clients.
