CMS has updated its Medicare Advantage health plan star ratings for plan year 2019.

CMS has released its 2019 star ratings for Medicare Advantage (MA) health plans, noting that the Medicare Advantage market continues to grow in affordability and access for consumers.

CMS estimates that 74 percent of MA beneficiaries will have access to a 2019 Medicare Advantage plan with four or more stars. Access to plans with four or more stars increased slightly from last year, when 73 percent of members had access to high-quality plans.

Nineteen MA health plans earned a five-star overall rating, according to the data released by CMS.
