The Rhode Ahead Medicare
Health

More Money in Your Pocket and More Health in Your Health Plan

Your 2020 BCBSRI Medicare Advantage plan is better (way better!) than ever.

Rhode Islanders are as unique as their accent. And in our small state, we share common experiences, from the sights and sounds of Waterfire to the delicious dining on Federal Hill to the waves breaking at the Narragansett beaches.

And there’s another thing we have in common—we love a good deal. And that’s exactly what you’ll get with your 2020 BCBSRI Medicare Advantage plan.
