Exclusively for the Retiree Advantage Plan, members receive extra benefits at no additional cost to your UnitedHealthcare Retiree Choice plan, when your coverage begins. Note these extra benefits are not applicable to the MedicareRX Part D plan. If you elect to enroll in the Retiree Advantage plan, you must continue to pay your Choice Plus plan premium and your Medicare Part B premiums.  Do not suspend or cancel your Choice Plus Primary plan or you will be automatically disenrolled from the Retiree Advantage plan.

* This list is an overview and does not include all benefits. Please refer to your plan materials for full plan benefits.

** Coupons and copay assistance programs cannot be used under either the Retiree Advantage plan or the Part D prescription.
