In Houston, Oscar will partner with HCA Houston Healthcare, Houston Methodist, Village Family Practice/VillageMD, St. Joseph Medical Center, IntegraNet and Privia Medical Group-Gulf Coast for its Medicare Advantage plans. The plans are set to roll out at the same time as the New York ones.

Oscar first announced its intent to sell Medicare Advantage plans in August 2018.
