What this company offers

Community Health Plan of Imperial Valley filed 1 Medicare Advantage plans with Medicare for 2027. Its plans are sold in California. Its parent company in Medicare's file is IMPERIAL COUNTY LOCAL HEALTH AUTHORITY. The exact plans on offer change from one county to the next, so your county decides which of them are open to you.

The company sells these kinds of plans:

  • HMO plans (1)

Its HMO plans keep care inside the network, and you choose a main doctor.

1 of its 1 plans is a special needs plan: 1 is a dual-eligible plan for people who have both Medicare and Medicaid. 1 of its plans include prescription drug coverage.

What its plans cost

None of its 1 plans charges $0 — every priced plan carries a monthly premium, although you still pay your Part C premium each month, just as you would with any Medicare Advantage plan. Plan premiums across the company run from $7.3 to $7.3 a month. That range comes from all 1 plans, and every plan carries a combined premium in the file.

A $0 premium does not mean $0 care. Each plan has its own copays. Each plan also has its own yearly limit on what you pay out of pocket for covered care. Those numbers change from plan to plan. The plan pages in this section show the exact numbers for each plan, straight from Medicare's own files.

Star ratings

Medicare rates each contract from 1 to 5 stars, and this company's contracts carry no star rating in the file for 2027. The rating belongs to the contract and not to the brand as a whole, so check the star rating on the plan page and not just the company name.

How to shop this company

Start with your county, because Medicare Advantage plans are sold by county. Then check three things before you decide: your doctors are in the plan's network, your drugs are on the plan's drug list, and the yearly cost limit fits your budget.

Some care needs approval before the plan will pay for it, so read how approval for home health works in a Medicare Advantage plan before you count on care at home. If you ever need hospice care, Medicare covers hospice under Part A in every plan — see what Medicare hospice covers, in the hospice guide.

This page is a guide, not a sales tool, and Care and Living Guide does not sell or enroll anyone in a plan. When you are ready to sign up, use Medicare.gov, call 1-800-MEDICARE, or talk with a licensed insurance agent.
