How many UnitedHealthcare Medicare Advantage plans are offered in Tulsa for 2027?
UnitedHealthcare is offering 10 Medicare Advantage plans in Tulsa County for plan year 2027. By type, that breaks down to 6 HMO-POS plans and 4 PPO plans, and all 10 include Part D prescription drug coverage.
Tulsa is in Tulsa County, and Medicare Advantage availability is set at the county level. That means the same UnitedHealthcare lineup is available throughout the county, not just inside the city limits. The full list of plan names appears in the table below.
What UnitedHealthcare Special Needs Plans are available in Tulsa County in 2027?
Five of UnitedHealthcare's 10 plans in Tulsa County for 2027 are Special Needs Plans (SNPs), which are built for people who meet specific eligibility rules. The mix is 3 Dual Eligible SNPs (D-SNPs), 1 Chronic Condition SNP (C-SNP), and 1 Institutional SNP (I-SNP).
- D-SNPs are for people who have both Medicare and Medicaid.
- C-SNPs are for people with certain chronic conditions.
- I-SNPs are for people who live in a nursing home or need that level of care.
If you don't meet the eligibility rules for a given SNP, you can't enroll in it, even if it's on the list. Medicare.gov and 1-800-MEDICARE can confirm whether you qualify.
What is new, renamed or not returning from UnitedHealthcare in Tulsa for 2027?
For 2027, UnitedHealthcare has 1 new plan in Tulsa County, 1 plan that is not returning, and 1 plan that has been renamed. Those changes are reflected in the table below.
If you're already in a UnitedHealthcare plan, you should receive an Annual Notice of Change (ANOC) by late September. The ANOC spells out what is changing for your specific plan in 2027 — premiums, cost sharing, the drug list, the provider network, and extra benefits. If your plan isn't returning, UnitedHealthcare's notice will explain your options, and you'll have a Special Enrollment Period to pick another plan. If you do nothing and your plan is renewing, it simply continues on January 1, 2027 with the changes described in the ANOC.
How do I check a UnitedHealthcare plan against my doctors and prescriptions before December 7, 2026?
Use the Medicare Plan Finder at medicare.gov, which lets you enter your prescriptions and pharmacy and compare plans side by side, or call 1-800-MEDICARE (TTY 1-877-486-2048), 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. For the official plan details, request the plan's Evidence of Coverage and provider and pharmacy directories from UnitedHealthcare directly.
A short checklist before you decide:
1. Confirm your doctors, specialists and preferred hospital are in the plan's 2027 network. 2. Enter every prescription — name, dose, and quantity — to see how each plan covers it in 2027. 3. Check which pharmacies the plan treats as preferred. 4. If you travel or split time between states, ask how out-of-area care is handled. 5. Review any extras you actually use (dental, vision, hearing, over-the-counter, transportation).
Network and formulary rules can change year to year, so a plan that fit in 2026 may fit differently in 2027.
What is changing in Medicare itself for 2027?
A few program-wide numbers are already confirmed by CMS for 2027, regardless of which plan you pick:
- Part D out-of-pocket cap: $2,400 in 2027 (up from $2,100 in 2026).
- Part D maximum deductible: $700 in 2027 (up from $615 in 2026).
- Part D national base beneficiary premium: $41.33 for 2027 (this is a formula input, not what any specific plan charges).
The 2027 Part B standard premium and deductible, and the 2027 IRMAA income brackets, have not been announced yet. CMS typically publishes those later in the fall, usually in November. The coverage gap (the old "donut hole") was eliminated in 2025, so Part D now has three phases, and the Medicare Prescription Payment Plan remains available if you'd like to spread drug costs across the year in monthly installments.
What are the Medicare enrollment deadlines for 2027 coverage?
The Annual Enrollment Period runs October 15 through December 7, 2026. Any change you make during that window takes effect January 1, 2027. If you do nothing, your current plan renews for 2027 if it is being offered again, with the changes listed in its ANOC.
If you're in a Medicare Advantage plan on January 1, 2027, you also have the Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment Period from January 1 through March 31, 2027 to make one change — switch to a different Medicare Advantage plan or go back to Original Medicare (and add a stand-alone Part D plan if needed).
