Great Plains Health has served Greater Nebraska for nearly 50 years. Memorial Hospital and St. Mary’s Hospital, from which Great Plains Health was formed, served patients for many years before that. To ensure our ability to continue providing quality care for the next 50 years and beyond, Great Plains Health, as part of a clinically integrated network that includes many independent practices in the area, has chosen not to renew our contracts with Medicare Advantage plans. Great Plains Health will not be in-network for any Medicare Advantage plan and will not be scheduling patients in any Medicare Advantage plan starting Jan. 1, 2025. Open enrollment for traditional Medicare is Oct. 15 to Dec. 7, and we want to provide information to seniors and other residents to help them make informed decisions.
