CDC PLACES: Local Data for Better Health, Place Data, 2025 release (2023 survey estimates), retrieved 2026-10-20. Model-based small-area estimates of crude prevalence among adults 18 and over, not a count of local diagnoses. Crude rates follow the age mix of a place: an older community reads higher on most conditions. New Jersey figure: average of the 21 New Jersey counties, weighted by adult population.

Why this matters for plan choice

Of the conditions above where Vineland reads higher than the New Jersey county average, high blood pressure, diagnosed diabetes, coronary heart disease, stroke and high cholesterol are among those a chronic-condition Special Needs Plan can cover. The chronic-condition Special Needs Plans on the Cumberland County list are built around: Cardiovascular Disorders; Chronic Heart Failure; Diabetes Mellitus. If you live with one of those, a C-SNP may be worth a look; you need a qualifying diagnosis to join.

By the numbers

2027 Medicare Advantage in Cumberland County

Medicare Advantage plans are approved by county, so Vineland residents see the Cumberland County list. Figures from the CMS Landscape file for contract year 2027; Special Needs Plans are counted separately.

  • $2.79 Average monthly Part C premium
  • $43.06 Average Part C + D premium
  • 26 Plans that include drug coverage
  • $4,150 Lowest in-network out-of-pocket limit
  • $8,671 Average in-network out-of-pocket limit
  • $9,850 Highest in-network out-of-pocket limit
  • $602.12 Average Part D deductible (plans with drugs)
  • 10 Plans with a 2026 rating of 4★ or more
  • 3.81★ Average 2026 star rating (rated plans)

Two ways to count "$0 premium" plans: 27 have a $0 Part C premium, and 18 have a $0 combined monthly premium for Parts C and D (11 of those include drug coverage; 7 have no drug coverage, so no Part D premium). The average premium figures likewise show the Part C premium and the combined Part C + D premium separately. Star ratings shown are 2026 ratings: the CMS plan file in this snapshot did not yet carry 2027 ratings, so each plan shows its 2026 rating, matched by plan ID. Check a plan’s 2027 rating on Medicare.gov Plan Finder.

PPO plans are the largest group here (20 of 33), and 7 plans have no drug coverage.

I have Medicare and NJ FamilyCare. What plans can I look at in Vineland?

You can keep Original Medicare with NJ FamilyCare, or look at a Dual Special Needs Plan (D-SNP) on the Cumberland County list, which coordinates both programs in one plan. NJ FamilyCare decides your Medicaid eligibility and level, and that decides which D-SNPs you can join, so Jackie starts with your Medicaid letter.

Which hospital in Vineland is in the CMS file?

Inspira Medical Center Vineland at 1505 West Sherman Avenue, with a CMS overall rating of 3 out of 5. Network status is a separate check for each plan.

What changes for Medicare plans in Vineland in 2027?

Counting Medicare Advantage plans with drug coverage, Special Needs Plans included, Cumberland County goes from 36 plans in 2026 to 33 in 2027. (The headline count of 33 plans on this page leaves out Special Needs Plans and includes plans without drug coverage, which is why the numbers differ.) The CMS crosswalk shows 9 plans ending with no similar plan in the county, 0 plans ending while the same company offers a plan with the same or a similar name under a new plan ID (members must enroll in it themselves), 1 plan folding into another plan automatically, and 7 new plans. Braven Health and HealthSpring have no Medicare Advantage plan with drug coverage in Cumberland County for 2027. Your plan’s Annual Notice of Change lists what changes for you on January 1.

How many people aged 65 and over live in Vineland?

For people with Medicare and a limited income, New Jersey's Medicare Savings Programs, PAAD, Senior Gold and NJ FamilyCare can help with costs; the guides linked on this page explain each one.

Provenance

Sources and methodology

How the figures are derived

  • Headline plan counts and averages exclude Special Needs Plans, which have their own eligibility rules and are reported separately.
  • "$0 Part C premium" counts plans whose Part C premium is $0. "$0 combined monthly premium for Parts C and D" counts plans whose consolidated Part C + D premium is $0 (for a plan without drug coverage, its Part C premium); our guides and blog use this second count. Out-of-pocket limits are in-network amounts. The average Part D deductible covers plans with drug coverage only.
  • The 2026 to 2027 comparison counts Medicare Advantage plans with drug coverage, Special Needs Plans included, and its "$0" row uses the combined Part C + D premium, so it differs from the headline count.
  • When the CMS crosswalk ends a plan with no successor but the same company files a plan with the same or a similar name under a new plan ID, we say so; members are not moved into the new ID automatically.
  • We do not publish per-plan enrollment: the source does not carry it, and we never estimate plan figures.
