Unlicensed Medicare Part D Providers
The Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)1
has granted a three-year federal waiver to certain companies allowing them to
sell Medicare Part D, the Prescription Drug Plans (PDPs), in Florida. The
following companies have obtained the federal waiver but are currently not
licensed by the State of Florida:
- HealthSpring of Alabama, Inc. & Health Spring, Inc.
Since the companies are not licensed to operate in Florida, they do not file
policy forms, rates, or financial reports with the Florida Office of Insurance
Regulation and they are not members of the Florida Life and Health Insurance
Guaranty Association (FLHIGA). No coverage is afforded by FLHIGA in the event of
impairment or insolvency of the entity.
If you have questions about your Medicare Part D coverage, please visit the CMS
web at:

Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
