- Currently Enrolled in a SHBP Medicare Advantage Plan Option in 2022: If you are enrolled in a Medicare Advantage with Prescription Drugs Preferred Provider Organization Plan Option in 2022, you will remain in your current Medicare Advantage Plan Option and Tier with your current Medical Claims Administrator for the 2023 Plan Year.
- Currently Enrolled in a SHBP Commercial (non-Medicare Advantage) Plan Option in 2022: If you are enrolled in a Commercial (non-Medicare Advantage Plan) Option in 2022, you will remain in your current Plan Option and Tier with your current Medical Claims Administrator in 2023.
