The choice of more than 60,000 Medicare beneficiaries in Louisiana. Peoples Health is a Medicare Advantage organization with a Medicare contract to offer HMO plans. Enrollment depends on annual Medicare contract renewal.
Peoples Health is a Medicare Advantage organization. Established in 1994, Peoples Health was founded by medical providers and remains guided by physicians. Our primary focus is providing coverage to people with Medicare.
In 1997, in the formative years of Medicare Advantage (at the time called “Medicare + Choice”), Peoples Health launched a “demonstration project” to help Medicare test the Medicare Advantage concept. That pioneering project — that health plan — is now one of Louisiana’s largest Medicare Advantage plans. It’s a true homegrown success story.
For us, success is built on many things and measured in many ways. It’s built on prevention and early detection. It’s built on easy access to care and face-to-face, personal attention. It’s built on providing free health education and fitness classes in communities we serve. But the best measure of success is when we are able to help any of our members reach their own health goals.
We want you to be as healthy as you can be. To deliver on that goal, we use a team approach. That’s why we say Peoples Health is Your Medicare Health Team.
Our goal has never been to be the biggest. It has always been to be the best. Peoples Health is not available nationwide. You have to be a resident of Louisiana to enjoy the benefits of Peoples Health.
Our corporate headquarters are in Metairie, Louisiana, but to better assist our members, many of our employees work out of our regional offices and service centers spread across our southeast Louisiana service area.
Representatives are available Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. If you contact us on a weekend or holiday, you may need to leave a message, but we will return your call within one business day.
