Two of the five companies offering Medicare Advantage plans in New Hampshire are leaving and the others are sharply cutting their offerings for 2026 as part of “unprecedented” changes to the national health-care system for seniors.
Anthem and Martin’s Point have told the New Hampshire Insurance Department they will no longer offer individual Medicare Advantage plans in New Hampshire after Jan. 1, while Aetna will no longer offer plans in most counties.
These changes will impact approximately 77,000 state residents who pay for private Medicare Advantage plans to supplement standard Medicare coverage, which is available to people over age 64.
WellSense and Humana will continue to offer Medicare Advantage plans statewide, although plan availability and types will differ by region.
Affected enrollees can choose a different Medicare Advantage plan or return to original Medicare, with or without a standalone Part D prescription drug plan or, in most cases, a Medicare Supplement (Medigap) policy available without medical underwriting.
