HMSA Akamai Advantage Dual Care (PPO D-SNP)
CMS published no overall star rating for contract H8481 in the 2026 Star Ratings — usually because the contract is too new to be measured or has too few members. That is not a low score; it means there is no score yet. How CMS star ratings work

What the star rating means. CMS rates every Medicare Advantage contract (the "H" number in the plan ID — all plans under it share the rating) on a 1-to-5 scale each October, from about 40 measures of care quality, member experience, complaints and appeals, customer service and, for plans with drug coverage, drug safety and pricing. The 2026 rating is largely based on performance measured in 2024.
5 Excellent4 Above average3 Average2 Below average1 Poor
Not rated means CMS published no overall rating — usually a contract too new to be measured or with too few members ("not enough data"); it is not a low score. A 5-star contract can be joined outside the normal enrollment windows (the 5-star Special Enrollment Period, Dec 8 – Nov 30). Medicare.gov flags contracts rated below 3 stars for three years running as low-performing. Stars describe the contract's past performance as CMS measured it; they are not a recommendation, and they do not tell you whether a plan's network, drugs or costs fit you.
Source and definitions
Fields come from the CMS Plan Benefit Package (PBP) and landscape public use files for contract year 2026 (see the source ledger). Premium is the CMS consolidated monthly premium. MOOP is the in-network maximum out-of-pocket. Star rating is the contract's overall rating from the CMS file used in this build; "Not rated" means CMS published none for this contract. This page reports filings and does not recommend or sell any plan; the plan's Summary of Benefits and Evidence of Coverage govern.
