Which Medicare Advantage carriers operate in Utah?

Quick Answer

Several carriers offer Medicare Advantage plans in Utah, including SelectHealth, Regence BlueCross, UnitedHealthcare, Humana, Aetna, Molina, Devoted Health, Cigna, and Wellcare. Availability varies by county, and plan offerings change each year.

Detailed Explanation

Utah has a fairly competitive Medicare Advantage market compared to many states. Carriers currently operating here include SelectHealth, Regence BlueCross, UnitedHealthcare, Humana, Aetna, Molina, Devoted Health, Cigna, and Wellcare. That said, not every carrier offers plans in every part of the state. If you live in a more rural county, like Garfield, Kane, or Daggett, your options may be limited to just one or two carriers, or possibly none at all. In that case, Original Medicare paired with a Medigap supplement plan might be a more practical fit.Carriers enter and exit markets, and they adjust their service areas from year to year. So the list above reflects what has generally been available in Utah, but it is not a guarantee of what will be offered in any given year or zip code. The Medicare Plan Finder at medicare.gov is the most reliable way to see exactly which plans are available at your address right now.

How This Applies in Utah

Utah carriers currently include SelectHealth, Regence BlueCross, UnitedHealthcare, Humana, Aetna, Molina, Devoted Health, Cigna, and Wellcare. Rural counties such as Garfield, Kane, and Daggett often have very limited plan availability, sometimes none.

What This Means For You

For you, this means shopping by your specific zip code matters more than looking at statewide carrier lists, especially if you live outside the Wasatch Front.

‍How Resting Sycamore Advisors Uses CMS Data

Our Commitment to Reliable Medicare Information

At Resting Sycamore Advisors, we work to provide accurate, current, and trustworthy information about Medicare Advantage, Medicare Part D, and Special Needs Plans.

To do that, we use data published by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), which is the official source for Medicare plan and enrollment information.

CMS Data Sources We Rely On

Our Medicare plan pages and comparison tools are powered by CMS datasets, including:

  • Medicare Advantage and Part D Landscape Files for annual plan availability and benefit details
  • Plan Benefits Package (PBP) Files for detailed benefit and coverage information
  • Part C and Part D Performance Data for quality ratings and plan performance measures
  • Monthly Enrollment Data for enrollment counts by contract, plan, state, and county

When possible, we link to the original CMS resources so you can review the source material directly.

How Often We Update Our Data

We follow the CMS release schedule and update our website as new data becomes available.

Annual Plan Year Updates (September)

We load new plan year Landscape and PBP files before the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period (October 15 through December 7). We also monitor CMS.gov for updates or revisions and refresh our content when needed.

Mid-Year Updates

We update enrollment and performance data as CMS publishes revised files, which are typically released monthly or quarterly.

Ongoing Maintenance

We routinely monitor CMS announcements for corrections, reissued files, or other changes and update our pages accordingly.

Each plan page includes a Last Accessed date so visitors can see when the source information was most recently reviewed.

How We Prepare CMS Data for Our Website

CMS data can be difficult to read in raw form. To make it easier to use, we format and organize the data for clarity.

This includes:

  • Standardizing plan identifiers such as contract ID, plan ID, and segment
  • Normalizing terminology so common Medicare terms are presented consistently
  • Organizing plan information by state, county, and ZIP code to match how people shop for coverage

All data values come from CMS. We do not change the underlying values beyond formatting, organization, and presentation.

Version Tracking and Transparency

We keep internal records of the CMS dataset versions used on our site.

Major Version History

  • Current Version: CY2025 Medicare Advantage and Part D Landscape Files (v1.0, published October 2025)
  • Prior Version: None. Resting Sycamore Advisors first began publishing structured Medicare plan information in March 2025

If CMS issues corrected or revised files, we update our website to reflect the latest available version.

Important Limitations

Please keep the following in mind:

  • CMS is the official source of truth. For enrollment and coverage decisions, always confirm details with Medicare.gov or 1-800-MEDICARE.
  • Data timing can vary. Enrollment and performance updates may appear on our website a few weeks after CMS publishes changes.
  • Plan details can change. Plan availability, costs, and benefits may change. Always verify current details directly with the plan provider.
