Who holds the market
Parent organizations by MA enrollment in the county, April 2026. Standalone Part D plans are excluded. Share = the parent's enrollees divided by the county's MA enrolled from the penetration file (the two CMS files can differ slightly; the denominator is stated, not assumed). A cell CMS suppressed (under 11 members) is counted as a bounded unknown, never as zero.
What is on offer for 2026
From the CMS Landscape file for plan year 2026: distinct plans by type, how many carry a $0 consolidated premium, and the range of in-network maximum out-of-pocket (MOOP). A published premium of "Not Applicable" is left out of the premium statistics, not treated as $0.

The plans people are in
The largest plans in the county by April 2026 enrollment, with their 2026 premium and MOOP as published. Enrollment is the April 2026 CPSC file; premium and MOOP are the 2026 Landscape; the two describe different moments and are labelled so.
Star Ratings of the contracts offered here
CMS rates contracts, not counties or plans. The overall Star Rating below is the contract's rating as carried in the 2026 Landscape file (which reflects the July 2026 update); it applies to every plan under that contract nationally and says nothing county-specific.
Method and limits
- Enrollment, eligibles and penetration are the CMS MA State/County Penetration file for 2026-04-01; the carrier mix is the CMS Monthly Enrollment by Contract/Plan/State/County (CPSC) file for the same month, restricted to MA contracts (H, R and E contract numbers; standalone Part D S-contracts excluded).
- CMS suppresses any cell under 11 members. Those cells are shown as a range and excluded from shares; they are never zero. Parent rollups use the parent organization CMS publishes, not name matching.
- Plans on offer are the CMS 2026 MA/Part D Landscape file, MA and SNP categories, counted as distinct contract-plan pairs. Premiums and MOOP are the published strings cast to numbers; "Not Applicable" is excluded from statistics.
- Year-over-year compares the same report month one year earlier. Plan year, report month and retrieval date are three different clocks and are labelled separately.
- A negotiated benefit or premium here is what a plan publishes, not what any individual pays; this page is not eligibility or enrollment advice.
- Data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services public files, cleaned and joined by Vlada. CMS does not endorse this page or Vlada Health. County identity is the CMS SSA county code (05430); the FIPS code (06065) is shown for reference and can cover more than one SSA cell.
