2026 HealthPartners® Journey Smart (PPO) plan

A $0-premium Medicare PPO plan with a monthly giveback

Our HealthPartners® Journey Smart (PPO) plan is a $0-premium plan that brings medical and prescription drug coverage together, plus money-saving perks like a $50.80-$75 monthly giveback, lower drug costs and more. Want a Medicare Advantage plan with your health (and wallet) in mind? The Journey Smart plan might be a great fit.

Get $50.80-$75 back in your pocket each month

Available in the Twin Cities area and central Minnesota, the Journey Smart plan credits $609.60-$900 back to enrollees annually. That's $50.80-$75 back in your Social Security check or Medicare Part B premium statement each month.

We paired this Medicare Part B premium giveback with a $0 monthly premium, Part D prescription drug coverage with lower drug costs, and an allowance for certain dental care too. It all adds up to more money in your pocket for the things you care about most.

Our HealthPartners® Journey Smart (PPO) plan is available in these Minnesota counties: Anoka, Benton, Carver, Chisago, Dakota, Hennepin, Isanti, Kandiyohi, McLeod, Meeker, Morrison, Pope, Ramsey, Redwood, Renville, Scott, Sherburne, Stearns, Swift, Todd, Washington and Wright.
