University of Miami Health System, known as UHealth, announced it will remove Medicare Advantage plans from Aetna, Preferred Care Network and Solis Health Plans from its network, effective Dec. 31, according to a report from the Miami Herald.
UHealth added two Medicare Advantage plans from HealthSun and Simply Healthcare Plans to its network, effective Jan. 1, 2027, both including access to UHealth primary care doctors.
UHealth patients affected by the change will need to sign up with new plans accepted by the system or find new physicians and hospitals.
“We have notified all of our impacted patients about this change, giving them the opportunity during open enrollment to select an insurance plan that includes UHealth,” the system said in a statement to the Herald.
Patients affected by the changes can select a new plan during Medicare’s open enrollment period, which runs through Dec. 7 and takes effect Jan. 1, 2027.
UHealth currently accepts Aetna, Freedom Health, Humana, Optimum, Preferred Care Network, Prominence and Solis Health Plans through the end of 2026.
