Geisinger a best insurance company for Medicare Advantage

U.S. News & World Report, the global authority in health care rankings and consumer advice, has named Geisinger Health Plan (GHP) a 2026 Best Insurance Company for Medicare Advantage in Pennsylvania. The ratings of the Best Insurance Companies for Medicare Advantage evaluate private insurance companies on the basis of U.S. News' proprietary analysis of 30+ quality measures published by the federal Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). Less than one-third of Medicare Advantage providers nationwide were named Best Insurance Companies for Medicare Advantage.

"This is once again a testament to Geisinger Health Plan's continued commitment to providing high-quality medical coverage and excellent member services to Medicare beneficiaries across Pennsylvania," said Karen Murphy, PhD, RN, president of Geisinger Health Plan.

"U.S. News' comprehensive, data-driven methodology recognizes the insurance companies that deliver the best Medicare Advantage plans," said Sumita Singh, executive vice president and general manager of Health at U.S. News. "By evaluating every company's Medicare Advantage plans based on dozens of quality measures and recognizing top performers in key areas – including Screening & Prevention and Care Continuity – we're highlighting those that deliver superior plans and hopefully better outcomes for beneficiaries," Singh added. "U.S. News' Medicare Advantage ratings are a powerful tool for beneficiaries as they make one of their most important health decisions."

For the 2026 edition of Best Insurance Companies for Medicare Advantage, U.S. News considered CMS data and quality measure results for every evaluated insurance company's Medicare Advantage health plans for the 2026 calendar year. U.S. News, in consultation with industry experts, selected 30+ CMS quality measures and assigned each measure a weight reflecting its relevance to consumers. The results for a provider's plans were averaged together, with greater weight assigned to plans having the most seniors enrolled. Additionally, U.S. News calculated insurers' ratings for three specific Medicare Advantage award categories: Screening & Prevention, Care Continuity and Highest Satisfaction.
