Effective December 31, 2024, PacificSource will no longer offer their PERS PacificSource Medicare Advantage Essentials RX 803 (HMO) plan. If you are currently enrolled in the PHIP PacificSource Medicare Advantage plan your coverage will continue through the end of 2024 without interruption.
We are actively working towards selecting a comparable plan from our remaining Contracted Health Plans (CHPs) to ensure a seamless transition for members affected. Once this is determined, you will receive notification and further information for the 2025 plan year.
There are no changes to your PHIP enrollment for the remainder of 2024:
- If you are currently eligible and receiving the RHIA premium subsidy, your RHIA premium subsidy will continue if you maintain enrollment in a PHIP-sponsored medical plan.
- If you are currently enrolled in a PHIP dental plan your dental plan will not change. You must be enrolled in a PHIP medical plan to be enrolled in a PHIP dental plan.
- Your current payment method will remain in effect and will reflect the new premium amount January 1, 2025.
To prepare for the 2025 plan year, we highly encourage you to attend a Plan Change presentation in your area to learn more about PHIP’s plans in your service area. The Plan Change presentation schedule will be posted here by August 1, 2024.
To discuss your options in more detail please contact the PERS Health Insurance Program at 800-768-7377.
We will continue to post updates here at pershealth.com as they develop.

PERS Health Insurance Program (PHIP)
