United Medicare Advantage

BPP has demonstrated success in the United Medicare Advantage (UMA) agreement since the first year shared savings was achieved in 2019. UMA is BPP’s only Medicare Advantage valuebased product and is a one-sided risk agreement. This means that BPP shares in generated savings but is not responsible for the repayment of any losses incurred. UMA has seen steady growth in membership, up 46% since its inception. Our focus to date continues with quality. United Healthcare calculates an overall quality star rating that is used to determine the percentage of shared savings for which BPP is eligible.
