A plan can be listed because it was renumbered or replaced, not only because a company is leaving the county. When the same company keeps other plans there, members are usually moved to a replacement plan. Your plan should send you a notice, and Medicare’s Annual Enrollment Period (October 15 to December 7) is when you can compare and switch. “People enrolled” is the number enrolled in that plan today (CMS hides counts of 10 or fewer).

Why your county matters for coverage
In West Virginia, the health plans you can choose depend on where you live. Medicare Advantage and Part D plans are offered by service area, usually county by county, and marketplace premiums and carriers are set by area as well. Living in Pleasants County means the options on this page apply to you, and plans in a neighboring county may differ.
- Medicare: West Virginia SHIP (State Health Insurance Assistance Program) gives free, unbiased counseling at (877) 987-4463. Ask which plans serve Pleasants County specifically.
- Marketplace plans: shop through HealthCare.gov (federal Marketplace); enter your Pleasants County ZIP code to see what is offered.
- Medicaid: apply through West Virginia Department of Human Services, Bureau for Medical Services.
West Virginia note: West Virginia recently split its old, single Department of Health and Human Resources into three separate departments -- Health, Human Services, and Health Facilities -- so Medicaid's Bureau for Medical Services now sits under the Department of Human Services specifically, not the older combined agency name still seen on some websites.
