Data as ofCMS public files, monthly snapshot

  • These totals include employer and union group plans.
    Why this matters

    The CMS contract and county files count group plans that retirees get through a former employer. They are not plans you can pick on your own. Counts here are larger than the individual-plan counts on county pages.

  • Some months are missing from the source.
    Why this matters

    CMS did not publish every month. Lines break at a missing month instead of guessing a value. A dotted line, where shown, only joins the two sides.

Contract IDs are renumbered each January, so this page follows carriers, not contracts. A contract that serves several states carries one carrier label, so a carrier can appear in a state where it is not a local plan. See the carrier view for the whole nation.
