Side-by-side: Utah's top two HMO plans for 2026
SelectHealth Medicare Advantage plans have the most consistent access to Intermountain hospitals, given the ownership connection between the two organizations. Other carriers may include Intermountain facilities, but you should verify before enrolling.
SelectHealth Medicare Advantage plans are the most closely aligned with Intermountain Health's physician network, since SelectHealth is owned by Intermountain. Other carriers may include some Intermountain-affiliated doctors, but coverage varies by plan and location.
Not necessarily. Intermountain Health is a large system with many providers, and whether a specific doctor, clinic, or facility is in-network depends on your individual plan's contract. Always verify before assuming.
Medicare Advantage plans generally cover out-of-network emergency care, but non-emergency care at an out-of-network hospital may cost significantly more or may not be covered at all, depending on your plan type.
If your doctor leaves your Medicare Advantage network, you may need to find a new in-network provider or pay higher out-of-pocket costs to keep seeing them. You may qualify for a Special Enrollment Period to switch plans in some cases.
Medicare doesn't publicly score plans on prior authorization burden, so there's no official ranking. However, prior authorization requirements vary by plan and change yearly. Checking a plan's Evidence of Coverage document is the most reliable way to understand how often authorizations are required.
