A health insurer says it will keep most of its Medicare plans but discontinue its Medicare Advantage private fee-for-service plans in 2010.
The private FFS Medicare plans enroll about 110,000 of the 2.5 million individuals enrolled in WellCare plans, according to WellCare, Tampa, Fla.
WellCare has been facing government investigations, but “this action is not related to the previously disclosed investigations,” the company says.
