For 2027, Florida secured two of the 15 five-star Medicare Advantage contracts, placing the state among markets with top-rated plan options for seniors.
One Florida five-star contract had 0.8K enrollees as of Sept. 1, while the other reached 40.6K, highlighting very different scales within Florida.

For 2027, regulators added two Part D safety measures and gave more weight to physical and mental health improvement, shaping how top plans were scored.
The avg. MA star rating stayed near 4.0 for 2027, while no standalone Part D plan reached five stars in the current cycle.

Open enrollment is a smart time to confirm your health plan still qualifies for HSA contributions, because 2027 minimum deductibles are moving higher.
For single coverage, the deductible must reach $1.75K in 2027, up from $1.7K. For families, the new minimum becomes $3.5K from $3.4K.
Plans that barely qualified in 2026 may fail in 2027. Contributing $4.5K while ineligible could mean ~6% penalties, or up to $270.
In 2027, max contributions rise to $4.5K for singles and $9K for families, with an extra $1K catch-up contribution after age 55.
Federal exchange shoppers can now pair HSAs with Bronze and catastrophic coverage. Open enrollment there runs from Nov. 1 to Jan. 15.
