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.
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.
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.
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.
