Medicare Advantage Cuts Expected Nationwide in 2026 | I’m Mike Harrington, assisting you to get the coverage that fits your needs Contact me today.

Major Medicare Advantage (MA) offerings are being reduced in 2026.
Counties with smaller populations of people over 65 are most affected, though some areas will gain plans.
Overall, MA enrollment is expected to drop by nearly one million beneficiaries compared to 2025.
The cutbacks are driven by higher patient usage, sicker enrollees, and reduced government reimbursement rates.
Some insurers, such as Humana and Clover Health, are still increasing plan availability nationwide.
