Sierra Nevada Spectrum

Sierra Nevada Spectrum (Regional PPO) is a Preferred Provider Organization Medicare Advantage plan

Sierra Nevada Spectrum (Regional PPO) will not be renewing its Medicare contract effective January 1, 2013. You may choose to enroll in our plan, but your coverage will automatically end on December 31, 2012. Because this plan ends on December 31, 2012, if you decide to join, you are entitled to enroll in a new MA plan or PDP beginning December 8, 2012 through February 29, 2013. However, if you want your enrollment in the new plan to take effect on January 1, 2013, the new plan must receive your application by December 31st. You may also have the option of enrolling in a Medicare Cost Plan, if one is offered in your area. If you do not enroll in another MA plan, Medicare Cost Plan or PDP plan by December 31, 2012, you will be disenrolled from our plan and enrolled in Original Medicare on this date.
