2026 star rating, contract H8379: 3.5 of 5

PriorityMedicare Dual Premier (H8379-003) costs $6.30 a month in 2027, down $2.50 from 2026, with an in-network out-of-pocket limit of $9,850 ($9,250 in 2026).

What changes from 2026 to 2027?

The changed lines are marked and come first. In-network amounts; members keep paying the Part B premium unless the plan reduces it. The plan files its benefits in parts for different counties, so lines marked ◆ show the most generous part of its area and some counties get less: the plan's Evidence of Coverage gives your county's amounts.
