Health Insurance

SDPEBA offers three different medical plans to its members, all of which are Sharp HMO plans Having three choices might make things sound complicated or that you have a lot of choices to make, but it’s actually fairly straight forward. 

​

Retirees have access to Sharp Medicare Advantage, Sharp Non-Medicare Classic, and Sharp Non-Medicare Select. Sharp Advantage is a Medicare Advantage plan and is what we recommend for any retirees with Medicare that are looking to get medical coverage through Sharp. 

​

These plans are very different so it is hard to compare the Medicare plan with its non-Medicare counterparts. When it comes to the non-Medicare plans, Sharp non-Medicare Classic has more coverage and locations, whereas the Sharp non-Medicare Select plan is more affordable. We recommend you look at the plan breakdown pages below for more information.
