UnitedHealthcare offers 8 Medicare Advantage plans in Davidson County for 2027. All 8 are HMO-POS plans, and all 8 include prescription drug coverage.
Of those 8 plans, 5 are Special Needs Plans — 3 D-SNPs (for people enrolled in both Medicare and Medicaid) and 2 C-SNPs (for people with qualifying chronic conditions). The remaining 3 are general-enrollment HMO-POS plans. The table on this page lists every plan by name.
UnitedHealthcare is one of 12 carriers selling Medicare Advantage in the county for 2027. Across all carriers, Davidson County has 69 Medicare Advantage plans available.
What is new or not returning from UnitedHealthcare in Davidson County for 2027?

If you are currently in a UnitedHealthcare plan that is not returning next year, you will get a notice from the plan explaining your options. If your plan is simply renamed, your coverage continues — but the Annual Notice of Change (ANOC) your plan mailed in September is where the specific updates to premiums, cost sharing, drug lists and provider networks are spelled out.
Which UnitedHealthcare plans are Special Needs Plans in Nashville?
In Davidson County for 2027, UnitedHealthcare has 5 Special Needs Plans: 3 D-SNPs and 2 C-SNPs. The D-SNPs are for people who have both Medicare and Medicaid. The C-SNPs are for people with specific chronic conditions, and you must qualify medically to enroll.
The D-SNPs on the 2027 roster are UHC Dual Complete TN-Q1, UHC Dual Complete TN-Y2 and UHC Dual Complete TN-YL. The C-SNPs are UHC Complete Care TC-0005 and UHC Complete Care Support TC-6. If you are not eligible for Medicaid and do not have a qualifying chronic condition, these plans are not available to you — the general-enrollment HMO-POS plans in the table are.
How do I check a UnitedHealthcare plan against my doctors and prescriptions before December 7?
The fastest way is the Medicare Plan Finder at medicare.gov. Enter your ZIP code, add your prescriptions and your pharmacy, and the tool shows how each plan covers your drugs. To check doctors, use the plan's own online provider directory or call the plan directly — provider networks are not shown in Plan Finder.
A short checklist before you commit:
- Confirm each of your doctors and hospitals is in-network for the plan year starting January 1, 2027.
- Enter every prescription, with dose and frequency, into Plan Finder to see what tier it is on and whether the plan covers it.
- Ask your pharmacy whether it is a preferred, standard, or out-of-network pharmacy for the plan.
- Read the Summary of Benefits for the specific plan ID you are considering — plans with similar names can have different cost sharing.
You can also call 1‑800‑MEDICARE (TTY 1‑877‑486‑2048), 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
What Medicare dates and figures should Nashville readers know for 2027?
The Annual Enrollment Period runs October 15 – December 7, 2026. Any change you make takes effect January 1, 2027. If you take no action, your current plan renews for 2027 as long as it is still being offered, with the changes described in your ANOC. After AEP, Medicare Advantage members have a second window — the Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment Period from January 1 – March 31, 2027 — to make one change.
For Part D in 2027, CMS has confirmed the annual out-of-pocket cap rises to $2,400 (it is $2,100 in 2026), and the maximum deductible a plan can charge rises to $700 (from $615 in 2026). The Part D national base beneficiary premium for 2027 is $41.33 — that is a formula input, not what any plan charges. The 2027 Part B standard premium and deductible, and the 2027 IRMAA income brackets, have not yet been announced; CMS typically publishes those figures in the fall.
